1. Almost wore the grooves out in that album

"Subterranean Homesick Blues" is considered both the first "rap" song and the first modern music video. The video's cue cards, written by Bob Dylan, Donovan, Allen Ginsberg, and Bob Neuwirth, even have intentional misspellings.

The lyric "You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows" inspired the name of the radical left-wing group the Weather Underground.

Chas Chandler of The Animals said Dylan told him the song was about "people living after the Bomb was exploded."

Bob Dylan's song structure was inspired by Chuck Berry's "Too Much Monkey Business."

The lyrics draw inspiration from Jack Kerouac's The Subterraneans and a quote by Satchel Paige.

2. That's one creative way of shuffling cards!

Never listened to this tune until now. Sittin' listening on headphones nodding my head side to side to the beat. 'Tis a happy moment in my life—long life. Thanks marble falls and underpants!

3. Bringing it all back home was the album before Highway 61 Revisited

61 included Like Rolling Stone and Dylan exploded everywhere

They were released within 4 moths of each other. This was Dylan in his wheelhouse and the basis of his career and legend. Some really great songs. 20 songs over two albums.
