Story & Background
"Highway 61 Revisited" from 1965, in this its very first CBS pressing, is not just a record, but a statement. Its genesis is steeped in legend, and the episode involving Al Kooper is perhaps its most striking emblem. During the recording sessions for "Like a Rolling Stone", producer Tom Wilson had called Mike Bloomfield on guitar and Paul Griffin on piano. Kooper, a guitarist, turned up at the studio hoping to play guitar, but was sidelined. While Griffin was momentarily absent, Kooper impulsively sat down at the organ, an instrument he had never played professionally. Wilson initially dismissed him, but Dylan, listening to the track, declared: "No, leave it like that!". That organ part, so peculiar and distinctive, became an iconic element of the track, defining not only the sound of that epoch-making song, but also helping to sculpt the revolutionary timbre of an album that would redefine rock.
