Editorial Reviews
Product Description
This is the re-mastered reissue of Bob Dylan's 1965 album HIGWAY 61.
Amazon.com
Dylan was virtually gushing great songs when this masterpiece arrived in the summer of 1965. From the epochal opening of "Like a Rolling Stone" through the absurdly apocalyptic closer, "Desolation Row," his command of surrealistic language was daring and amazing. As a vocalist, he was rewriting the rules of the game. Jimi Hendrix made note of Mr. Z's technically suspect pitch and decided that he too was a singer. And the backing, though ragged, is precisely right. Is this the essential Dylan album? It's certainly one of them. --Steven Stolder

Long reviews rub me the wrong way, so I'll just say that every song on this recording was an historical recording. Nothing else before or after this album has sounded like it. It is in a class all by itself. So many things have already been said about it, so I will write in general terms. These are not songs that are about topics. These are songs about the human mind, the human predicament, and lack of a concrete reality in human experience. Everything we think we know is challenged by the words in combination with the melodies. The best part about it is nothing is challenged directly. In the highest, most artistic way all meaning is conveyed by showing, not telling. We are left to draw our own conclusions, which can only be drawn via sensory experince. Dylan gives no questions and no answers, just situations tied into universal human experiences.
Is there any popular song more powerful than "Desolation Row"? Is it the lyrics, the voice matched with the simple chords changes, or the beautiful guitar playing that accompanies Dylan's singing? Is it that it lasts 10 minutes, wth one, heartbreaking harmonica solo? Or, is "Desolation Row" so profound because it follows "Like A Rolling Stone," "Tombstone Blues," "Queen Jane Approximately," or "Just Like Tom Thumb Blues"? How about the lazy, oddly settling "It Takes A Lot to Laugh"? Somehow that loping country song fits with this recording in its otherwise epic grandeur. It works in a way that seems to say, this is still just music, folks. Don't take any of it too seriously. Dylan has so much style every word he utters on this recording means something. There are no insignificant words or notes. It's all a perfect melding of extraordinary elements.
It all works, independently and together. No song is about any one thing, but all together the meaning is there. It has as much to do with image and lifestyle as it does with music. Everything matters. It is the human mind in its most profound level of artistic expression.
If you’re reading this review, you most likely already know about the music; I’m going to address the vinyl reissues themselves…
Curiously, they’re both Mono (that was not mentioned in the description, but mono’s actually a plus in my book).
Both records are heavy, flat and well-pressed; The sound is astonishing…
The restrained production, along with the crisp re-mastering makes you feel this thing is happening in your living room right at the moment you’re listening to it.
Don’t wait… Get both.
