Not just the fantastic artwork on this, but the album kicks off with a funky version of Slow Train. Gotta say, this release has grown on me from when I first heard it.

And to bring some more Neil trivia into this, at the Bill Graham memorial show in '91, Neil sat in with the Grateful Dead (the only time he did so) to cover Dylan's Forever Young.

Day 27: “Roll on Southern Pacific, on your silver rails”

Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited

Might as well make it three days of Dylan in a row.

"Well, I ride on a mailtrain, baby
Can't buy a thrill
Well, I've been up all night, baby
Leanin' on the windowsill
Well, if I die
On top of the hill
And if I don't make it
You know my baby will"
