·       BOB DYLAN - HIGHWAY 61 REVISITED - ORIGINAL 1965 COLUMBIA MONO LP CL-2389

·       ORIGINAL US PRESSING

*** STILL SEALED ORIGINAL LP – 100% GUARANTEED ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING (MONO REISSUES DO NOT EXIST) ***

·       BELIEVED TO BE PRESSED ON THE ORIGINAL RED & WHITE COLUMBIA `360 SOUND` MONO LABEL, SUCH AS THE ONE SHOWN BELOW, FROM OUR PREVIOUS AUCTION (NO OTHER MONO PRESSINGS OR LABELS EXIST)

·       NOTE: WE CAN SEE THE ORIGINAL PERFORATED PLASTIC BAGGY PROTRUDING FROM THE OPENING SIDE. THIS MEANS THAT THE RECORD IS NOT ONLY STILL SEALED – IT IS MOST LIKELY SEALED TWICE!!!! (FIRST IN ITS INNER, PERFORATED PLASTIC BAGGY AND THEN AGAIN IN ITS ORIGINAL SHRINKWRAPPED COVER). THIS TYPE OF INNER SLEEVES (PERFORATED PLASTIC BAGGIES) WAS USED BY COLUMBIA ONLY BETWEEN 1965 AND 1967 AND WAS DISCONTINUED AFTER 1967. NO STEREO REISSUES ARE EVER FOUND IN THE PERFORATED PLASTIC BAGGIES (AND NO MONO REISSUES EXIST IN ANY FORM OR ANY INNER SLEEVES, WHETHER PLASTIC OR PAPER)!

·       THIS IS THE ORIGINAL, AUTHENTIC, FIRST U.S. PRESSING; THIS IS NOT A REISSUE, AN IMPORT, OR A COUNTERFEIT PRESSING.

·       THICK CARDBOARD COVER, AMERICAN STYLE.

·       COVER HAS A NIFTY “PLUG” STICKER STILL AFFIXED TO THE WRAP.

·       THICK, HEAVY VINYL PRESSING

·       MONO version of this album has NEVER been available on legitimate Compact Disc or in any other digital format.To hear this album the way it really, truly is meant to be heard, you must play the Hal Blaine’s bass drum intro to “Like a Rolling Stone” in all its MONO glory, and at full blast-‘em-dead volume! Pent-up-anger and delayed retribution were never more fun to listen to (yes, folks, it is Hal Blaine on drums, although he is not credited on the cover, and remains uncredited to this day)

(►PLEASE SEE THE IMAGE OF THE COVER, LABEL OR BOTH, SHOWN BELOW)

(Note: this is a REAL image of the ACTUAL item you are bidding on. This is NOT a "recycled" image from our previous auction. What you see is what you'll get. GUARANTEED!)

This is the Mount Everest of Rock & Roll. The towering mountaintop of modern American music.

For its extraordinary contribution to the modern music, superb production, craftsmanship, fine musicianship, revolutionary significance and influence it exerted on numerous generations of musicians, writers and general public, or for some other innate quality, this album was voted one of top-200 albums of all time in one of the largest poll of critics, music reviewers, professionals and producers ever organized: the poll, which was conducted by Paul Gambaccini, legendary BBC Radio A&R man, surveyed more than 50 top music professionals (including Roy Carr, Jonathan Cott, Robert Christgau, Cameron Crowe, Chet Flippo, Ben Fong-Torres, Charlie Gillett, Greil Marcus, Murray the K., Lenny Kaye, Bruce Morrow (a/k/a "Cousin Brucie"), Tim Rice (of "Jesus Christ Superstar" and "Evita" fame), Lisa Robinson, Robert Shelton (who wrote liner notes for Bob Dylan's first album), Ed Ward, Joel Whitburn, Pete Wingfield, etc.).

·                               CONDITION:

·                               RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)            THE ALBUM IS STILL FACTORY SEALED AND IS BELIEVED TO BE PERFECTLY MINT. Please note: sealed items are assumed to be mint and are sold as-is, as we have no way of inspecting them. For our policy on still sealed records ►click here (PLEASE READ BEFORE PLACING A BID)

(b)            The record is STILL in its original inner, perforated plastic baggy, which must have shielded the record from the harmful impact of elements over many years! (We can see it through the opening slot of the cover)

(c)             Mono pressing of this title is much rarer, and by far more preferable to its stereo counterpart. We think that the mix is more natural, humane, "organic" and that the mixes are somewhat different than on the stereo version. We estimate that stereo copies of this album outnumber mono pressings by a ratio of at least 10:1.

(d)            Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       COVER

COVER IS STRONG NEAR MINT, STILL SEALED AND COVERED IN ITS ORIGINAL ►SHRINK WRAP

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-         Tiny yellowish stain noted on back side of the cover where a small piece of shrink wrap is missing (less than ½ square inch in size)

-         Back cover has a razor-like line (cut) on the cover, as if someone attempted to cut away the shrink wrap with a razor, but inadvertently left the mark on the cover as well (nothing significant). The paper slick is intact and no part is missing, but the razor line is visible.
