Here is a spectacular copy of Bob Dylan’s sixth studio album, "Highway 61" (1966), signed perfectly by Dylan in black felt tip pen. Per Jeff Rosen, Bob Dylan’s longtime business manager, “I represent Bob Dylan and have done so for many years. In 2017 he signed a number of individual albums on a rare and limited basis. The chain of custody is directly from Bob Dylan to myself.” The album itself is from the personal stock of Jeff Rosen and Bob Dylan. The cover and original vinyl record are in mint condition.
“Highway 61 Revisited” has remained among the most highly acclaimed of Dylan's works. It is the second in the trilogy of albums that Dylan recorded in 1965 and 1966, starting with Bringing It All Back Home and ending with Blonde on Blonde. This was a breakthrough album for Dylan. Having until then recorded mostly acoustic music, Dylan used rock musicians as his backing band on every track of the album, except for the closing track, the 11-minute ballad "Desolation Row". Known as the album that "started" the 1960s, it kicks the door open with "Like a Rolling Stone" (Rolling Stone Magazine’s No. 1 song of all-time), and picks up steam throughout. Highway 61 is Dylan's homage to the blues music that deeply influenced his writing and life.
An unbelievable example of one of Dylan’s greatest albums, signed in a controlled environment, for his trusted business manager of 30-plus years. An unprecedented event, especially for the ever-elusive Dylan.
