Critical Response
"The result is Dylan’s hardest rocking album, an album of biting satire and vituperation, of fevered playing and controlled aggression."—Hank Kalet, PopMattersPopMatters: Highway 61 Revisited Review (February 7, 2004)"This is the point where Dylan planted both feet firmly on the ground that had been partially turned on 1965’s 'Bringing It All Back Home', and started digging in."—Sid Smith, BBCBBC: Highway 61 Revisited Review (April 23, 2007)
"Dylan had not only changed his sound, but his persona, trading the folk troubadour for a streetwise, cynical hipster."—Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Allmusicallmusic: Highway 61 Revisited Review
