‘Highway 61 Revisited” is singer-songwriter Bob Dylan’s sixth studio album, released in August 1965 by Columbia Records. Having recorded one side of his previous album ”Bringing It All Back Home” with a rock band backing him, ”Highway 61” was Dylan’s first album to be recorded with a rock band on every track, except for the 11 minute closing song “Desolation Row”, which was performed on acoustic guitar.

Featuring hits and concert staples such as “Like a Rolling Stone”, “Desolation Row”, “Highway 61 Revisited” and “Ballad of a Thin Man”, it is considered to be among the artist’s best and most influential efforts. Dylan himself commented, “I’m not gonna be able to make a record better than that one… ”Highway 61” is just too good. There’s a lot of stuff on there that ”I” would listen to.”

”Highway 61 Revisited” peaked at #3 in the American charts and #4 in the UK, and its lead single, “Like a Rolling Stone”, reached #2 in the US and #4 in the UK. ”Highway 61 Revisited” has received multiple accolades. The album was ranked #4 on Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, and “Like a Rolling Stone”, “Desolation Row”, and “Highway 61 Revisited” were listed at #1, #185 and #364, respectively, on Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list. – Wikipedia
