Although his contributions as a performer and recording artist have been central to his career, his songwriting is generally held as his highest accomplishment. The end result is the very finest, most transparent analog edition of Blood on the Tracks ever produced-and the first-ever proper analog reissue.

Hip hop group Public Enemy reference it in their 2007 Dylan tribute song " Long and Whining Road": "It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back / You bet there's blood on them Bomb Squad tracks".

A film adaptation of the album is currently in pre-production, under the direction of Luca Guadagnino.Bringing It All Back Home was a controversial album as it the first on which he played electric guitar.
