'Tis a classic. Opens with the shot in the arm that is Like a Rolling Stone and barely lets up on absolute brilliance for the entire run-time. I don't know if it's my favourite Dylan record, but it's damn good, and definitely up there!

At the top of my lists. Track by track, not one disappoints me. Such a great record.
Hit: Like a Rolling Stone
Choice cut: Ballad of a Thin Man
Folk Rock/Blues Rock but highly recommended to anyone who loves music.

I love this whole album. Every song is great. Dylan gets it perfect here.

Let me share my hot take and tell you it's the weakest part of his electric trilogy (an all-time great nonetheless).

Sometimes I think this isn't his best albums. Yet sometimes I think it's the best album of all time. Truly apart from the two semi filler tracks (tittle track and From A Buick 6) this is absolutely perfect and song for song almost nothing can compete with it, with three of the songs being in the category of the best songs of all time. What other album can make this claim?
Desolation Row is, in the incredibly tough competition, his lyrical masterpiece, and the melody is completely gorgeour. What a song.

this is undoubtedly a great album, top 5 Dylan for me, but what annoys me is that stupid noise in Highway 61, it really grates on my nerves!
not the only reason its not my fav Dylan
but it is a seriously good record
my fave Dylan album is Blonde on Blonde
Followed by Blood on the Tracks, Another Side, Bringing It All Back Home then Highway 61.
I also love Time Out of Mind and The Freewheelin' Bob
The man did so many masterpieces.
His latest one was good too.
