Highly recommend Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, Harvest, After The Gold Rush and Rust Never Sleeps. They are varying in style, some more rock oriented, some more folky.

I think Dylan is the greatest songwriter of all time, Lennon/McCartney included, and imo his work in the 60s and early 70s is amazing, so I give him an edge, but Young really was more of an explorer stylistically. It's tough, being two of the all-time songwriters, and having produced quality material for so long. Young is the better musician while Dylan is the better lyricist, imo.
