The Rolling Stones All songs A–Z

Bob Dylan released this song on Columbia Records in mid-1965. He developed the composition from an extended verse written in June 1965 following his return from an exhausting English tour. The track became the opening song on his sixth studio album, Highway 61 Revisited, recorded weeks after its initial composition. The recording process involved a challenging two-day preproduction phase where Dylan experimented with different musical approaches before achieving success with a rock arrangement featuring organ accompaniment.
