BOB DYLAN Highway 61 Revisited (UK/EU 9-track mono LP pressed on black vinyl. Originally released in 1965, Highway 61 Revisited was a defining moment in Bob Dylan's career, cementing his full transition from folk troubadour to electric rock innovator. Backed by a band of top-tier rock musicians - including guitarist Mike Bloomfield - Dylan fused driving, blues-based rock with surreal, poetic lyricism that reflected the political and cultural turbulence of the era. Opening with the anthemic "Like A Rolling Stone", the album moves through biting blues-rock statements like "Tombstone Blues" and "From A Buick 6", the acerbic "Ballad Of A Thin Man", and the rollicking title track. The closing "Desolation Row" - a sprawling 11-minute masterpiece - delivers a surrealist, cinematic vision that remains one of Dylan's most celebrated works. Named after the historic U.S. highway connecting Dylan's birthplace in Duluth, Minnesota, to the deep musical roots of the American South, the album peaked at No. 3 in the U.S. and No. 4 in the UK, and is frequently ranked among the greatest albums ever recorded, sitting at No. 18 in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. Picture sleeve, factory sealed. Essential)
