   Summary: The Best Rock and Roll Record of All Time
Wow, from the very first note, you know there is something different about this record. It is a rocker through and through. A rock 'em, sock 'em rock and roll record, maybe the best rock and roll record of all time. BLONDE ON BLONDE and The Beatles' WHITE ALBUM come close, but this is the one, the record I believe all rock albums have to be measured by. "Like a Rolling Stone," is a song that's been stamped into everybody's psyche. I don't think I've every met anybody, young or old who doesn't sing along with this one when the hear it on the radio or anywhere for that matter. And the rest of the record, right up to "Desolation Row" build on that song to make this the great record that it is.

   Summary: I Love this Record
"Like a Rolling Stone" the first song on HIGHWAY 61 grabs you right from the getgo and this album does not let go till the last guitar lick in "Desolation Row" and in between there are some of the best rock and roll you are ever going to listen too. It seems like the band has been playing together forever, though from what I've read of how Bob Dylan makes records, they probably just got together, did a few run throughs, then bang, they probably cut the record. Well, they did great, this record not only stands the test of time, it will never get old.

   Summary: The Whole Album is a Rocker Extrodinaire
I just love the lead guitar work on "Desolation Row." That lead guitar punches up Dylan's voice and those surreal lyrics to make this song like no other. I shudder for the whole eleven minutes every time my husband plays this song and he plays it a lot. You can never get tired of this. Mr. Dylan really raised the bar with this one. "Like a Rolling Stone" is a rocker extrodinaire and it goes on for six minutes, which was a big deal when it came out, because most hit records never when over something like three minutes, ten seconds. Dylan really broke the mold with "Stone", opened up the scene for others to record long songs. This is a super CD. One you just have to own.

   Summary: Gone are the Protest Songs on this Rockin' Rocker
It must have been hard for the Dylan faithful to make the switch from folk to rock. He didn't make it as easy as Steve Jobs apparently has done with the switch to the new Intel processor in his new Macs. However he set the world on fire with "Like a Rolling Stone." Al Kooper's keyboards are nothing short of haunting. I've heard Dylan do this song on countless live tapes and in person a few times, but never have I heard him approach the power he does on this record with this song. "Like a Rolling Stone" is followed by "Tombstone Blues" more shear rock and roll music and this time it's piled on top of beautiful poetry. Next up comes my favorite song on the record, "It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry" more raw power. And the record goes on in that vein, ending with the long and very wonderful "Desolation Row." Just wonderful. Wait, I already said that. Well now I'm saying it again.
