Show All 146 Reviews- Highway 61 Revisited is Bob Dylan's profile album. Containing all the sorts of material he wanted to make and all the sounds he envisioned. Dylan takes the opportunity to lash out against others in "Like A Rolling Stone" and lash out against the wild fanfare and press that followed him around in his early years in "Ballad of A Thin Man". This is the obsessive, resentful and fun Bob Dylan that was dwelling deep inside. Al Kooper joins on organ and really defines the mood of the whole album, while Mike Bloomfield joins with some real stoney and radical guitar licks. "From A Buick 6" and the title track get real bluesy and show off some of Dylan's most surreal lyrics while the 11 minute closer "Desolation Row" takes on an intimate portrayal of the world. In Highway 61 Revisited Dylan really sheds his skin and is looking to lose listeners. The music is deviant and tempting, the lyrics are surreal and in your face and the overall tone is one of playful delight, yet, in doing so Dylan has created some of the most captivating songs he would ever make. Fortunately, this album would be followed by his masterpiece "Blonde On Blonde", meanwhile this album will tear out your ears and make you rethink your position in the world. Be sure to checkout "It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry" , the highlight of the album.
- Don't know if it is just that my copy is worn or how it is supposed to sound, but I am not impressed by the sound quality on my copy of this cassette. Sound quality overall is not impressive and there is some pretty bad sibilance on Desolation Row.
- Works as a replacement/upgrade for an OG us, sounds fine just not the best at all.
Sleeve material is very cheap, vinyl came really dirty and the picture is distorted a little unfortunately :(
Much better options out there but this is very affordable. - Just picked up this copy of H61R.
I am very impressed with the mono pressing. Supposedly an "AAA" all analogue recording.
Just a word to people who are playing mono records on their stereo turntable, just make sure that either you have:
a) mono button on your stereo receiver
b) use the double "Y" cable method to sum up the R+L channels
c) or have a mono stylus/cartridge.
It'll sound a thousand times better! - VPRS rating: 4/5
*Vinyl Pressing Rating Scale (VPRS):
5 – Exceptional—surpasses expectations for how good the album in question can sound; reveals depth and/or detail not previously detected
4 – Really, really good; not impossible to imagine a better pressing could exist, but no real desire to invest the time/money into finding out
3 – A positive listening experience, but no wow factor; might seek out a better pressing, depending on personal affinity for the album in question
2 – Disappointing—flat or muddled or generally lifeless; definitely going to be on the lookout for something better
1 – Garbage—some flaw(s) so egregious that I can’t even bear to finish listening; will not play album again until a decent pressing can be obtained
[FWIW: People post a lot of varied information in Discogs reviews—from commenting on the merit of the album itself to seeking information about runout anomalies—but I‘m often unable to find out what I really want to know (namely, “How happy are you with this pressing of the album?”). Additionally, I doubt that most record buyers have multiple copies of an album with which to do a comparison. Hence, this rating scale. If you like it, feel free to copy/paste it to your Notes app and use it for yourself. Peace, LJJ] - This is a 70’s European pressing. Around 1975~
Doesn’t sound bad, just that the record is a bit light
