Bob Dylan: Highway 61 Revisited (American Columbia)
Norman Jopling, Record Mirror, 23 September 1965
THOUGHT I'D jump the gun and tell you all about this LP, just issued in the States but not here. Side one starts off with 'LIKE A ROLLING STONE', and presumably there's no need to talk about the drama of degradation, well on its way to selling a million copies on single.
