Listening to, say, Like a Rolling Stone and Idiot Wind back to back, it's very obvious it's the same person singing, despite the 10 year lapse. The same thing can't always be said for Stevie. Compare a cut from the White Album to something from Rock a Little, and the untrained ear probably wouldn't even know it's the same vocalist.
I can turn that argument back around on you, though. Compare Stevie's vocals on Street Angel to her vocals on Say You Will. They're far more similar than Dylan's on At Budokan and Oh Mercy.
