Where to start? I think I have about 1000 tracks (different versions...etc...) of his

Blood on the Tracks is my favourite album but The Freewhelin Bob Dylan is also pretty amazing so maybe that is...I dunno both are great. I would start with Freewhelin... though. The Times They Are a-Changin and Bringing it all back home are also essential listens. Personally not got into his stuff since Desire, which came out mid-70's but the Dylan before that is the greatest singer-songwriter of all-time by miles IMO. Great lyrics, great voice and simply great music.

His tribute poem to Woody Guthrie is pure brilliance...

My favourite performance of his is with Johnny Cash...
