...DYLAN: HIGHWAY 61 REVISITED (Columbia). Having breathed new strife into folk music's repertoire, Dylan's muse seems a little winded, and some of his new delirious diatribes have a wheezy, hollow sound. Devotees will still enjoy his rasping version of his hit tune, Like a Rolling Stone, as well as his eleven-minute talking blues, Desolation Row, where "everybody is making love or else expecting rain...
