- Angel - "Just Like Tom Thumb Blues" - Highway 61 Revisited - 1965
- "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues" is a song written and recorded by Bob Dylan. It was originally released on the album Highway 61 Revisited. It was recorded on August 4, 1965, in one of the last recording sessions for the album, right before recording Desolation Row, which followed it on the album as well. It is considered one of Dylan's 1960's masterpieces, and a comic tour de force.
- "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues" continues on the road weariness from the album's previous song, "Highway 61 Revisited". The singer finds himself in Juarez, Mexico at Easter time, amidst sickness, despair, whores and saints. While there, he encounters shady women like Saint Annie and Sweet Melinda, as well as corrupt authorities, and drinks and drugs his way into helplessness. The song establishes a nightmare vision as the singer is pulled by gravity, negativity, drink, illness, remorse and memories. Scene and situation are combined into a gorgeous evocation of muddied consciousness without ever resolving into a clear picture of what the song is about. But in the surprising final verse, the singer has had enough finds the means to pick up and leave it all behind and head back to New York City, where things may be better.
- Like many songs on Highway 61 Revisited, "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues" is overflowing with literary references, including images recalling Malcolm Lowry's novel Under the Volcano, a street name taken from Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Murders in the Rue Morgue," and the title's reference to Rimbaud's "My Bohemian Life (Fantasy)," in which Rimbaud refers to himself as "Tom Thumb in a daze."
- Musically, "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues" has no chorus, but six AAAA rhymed verses, sweetened and deepened by a handful of chords and Dylan's vocal emphasis. Keyboards, drums and vocals provide texture. The keyboard parts are particularly notable, making innovative use of two different pianos, with Al Kooper playing an electric Hohner Pianet and Paul Griffin adding a bar room feel on tack piano.
- "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues' was included on Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits Vol. II. An alternate take of the song is included on The Bootleg Series Vol. 7: No Direction Home: The Soundtrack.
- It has also been popular live in concert. A live version recorded at a concert in Liverpool on May 14, 1966 was released as the B-side to the release of the I Want You single,and later in Masterpieces. The song was also part of the famous and controversial electric set with The Band of the concert at Albert Hall on May 17, 1966 that was released on the album The Bootleg Series Vol. 4: Bob Dylan Live 1966, The "Royal Albert Hall" Concert.
- Canadian singer-songwriter Gordon Lightfoot was the first to cover the song, shortly after the release of Highway 61 Revisited. Issued as a non-LP single in early October 1965, Lightfoot's version of "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues" was a #3 hit in Canada.
- The song has also been covered many other times. A live cover by Neil Young is included on the album The 30th Anniversary Concert Celebration. Others who have covered the song include Judy Collins, Nina Simone, Bryan Ferry (on the 2007 album Dylanesque) and Linda Ronstadt.,and also the Grateful Dead who have covered it extensively live, in concerts such as View From the Vault
- The Beastie Boys sampled the lyric "I'm going back to New York City, I do believe I've had enough" for their song, "Finger Lickin' Good", on the Check Your Head album. Bob Dylan requested $2000 for use of the sample, but Mike D managed to barter him down to $700.

- "Desolation Row" is the closing track of Bob Dylan's sixth studio album, Highway 61 Revisited. It is noted for its length (11:21) and surreal lyrics. It was recorded on August 4, 1965, in Columbia's Studio A in New York City. The two takes spliced for the album were the second and third time Dylan had sung the song. Charlie McCoy played acoustic guitar for the record, making it the album's only track not to feature an electric guitar. Rolling Stone ranked the song as number 185 in their 500 Greatest Songs of All Time
- In the New Oxford Companion to Music, Gammond described "Desolation Row" as an example of Dylan's work that achieved a "high level of poetical lyricism."
- In an interview with USA Today on September 10, 2001, the day before the release of his album Love and Theft, Dylan claimed that the song "is a minstrel song through and through. I saw some ragtag minstrel show in blackface at the carnivals when I was growing up, and it had an effect on me, just as much as seeing the lady with four legs."
- It has been suggested that the title is a reference to Jack Kerouac's novel Desolation Angels and John Steinbeck's Cannery Row. Suggestions over the exact "location" of "Desolation Row" include Dylan's response to an interviewer on a television press conference on December 3, 1965 that it was "someplace in Mexico" and Al Kooper's (who played organ and piano on the album) assertion it was New York City's Eighth Avenue.
- Many suggestions have been made as to the different inspirations for the song's lyrics, including the Duluth lynchings ("They're selling postcards of the hanging... The circus is in town") and T. S. Eliot's poem The Waste Land.
- Italian singer-songwriter Fabrizio de André wrote "Via della Povertà", an Italian translation of "Desolation Row", and included it in his 1974 album "Canzoni".
- According to the Grateful Dead website, the Dead have performed a cover version of "Desolation Row" since the mid-1980s. The song is included on their 2002 release Postcards of the Hanging, which features a recording from March 24, 1990, at the Knickerbocker Arena in Albany, New York. The song was frequently included in Dead set lists and is often abbreviated as "D-Row."
- Chris Smither recorded the song on his 2003 album Train Home with Bonnie Raitt providing backup on vocals and slide guitar.
- My Chemical Romance covered the song for the soundtrack of Watchmen, the film adaptation of Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' graphic novel. The song peaked at #20 on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks in March, 2009.

- "Cinderella, she seems so easy
"It takes one to know one," she smiles
And puts her hands in her back pockets
Bette Davis style
And in comes Romeo, he's moaning
"You Belong to Me I Believe"
And someone says," You're in the wrong place, my friend
You better leave"
And the only sound that's left
After the ambulances go
Is Cinderella sweeping up

- "Corrina, Corrina" - The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan - 1963
- "Corrine, Corrina" is a 12 bar country blues song in the AAB form. "Corrine, Corrina" was first recorded by Bo Chatmon and the Mississippi Sheiks (Brunswick 7080, December 1928). However, it was not copyrighted until 1932" by Chatmon and his publishers, Mitchell Parish and J. Mayo Williams. The song is familiar for its opening verse:
- Corrine, Corrina, where you been so long?
- Corrine, Corrina, where you been so long?
- I ain't had no lovin', since you've been gone.
The Mississippi Sheiks, as the Jackson Blue Boys with Charlie McCoy on vocals, also recorded the same song on the same day for another recording studio; this time as "Sweet Alberta" (Columbia 14397-D), substituting the words Sweet Alberta for Corrine, Corrina.

- Johanna
- "Visions Of Johanna" - Blonde on Blonde - 1966
- "Visions of Johanna" is a song by Bob Dylan from the 1966 album Blonde on Blonde. Considered among Dylan's greatest works, Dylan referred to it as his favorite song on the album which captured that "thin, wild mercury sound". The song is ranked #404 on the Rolling Stone magazine's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
- There have been a number of speculations about the meaning of the song of which none have been supported by statements made by Dylan. Commenting on this song, Marqusee characterises it (p. 196) as 'Dylan's definitive treatment of "strandedness"', and notes that 'in contrast to most of the material in "Blonde on Blonde", he brought it to the studio as a finished composition'. He later comments 'In VoJ Dylan is stranded between extremes - total freedom and abject slavery.'
- Others have subjected the words to poetic 'close reading' and have found in it a wealth of allusion, for example, to William Blake; thus Thakkar says 'My claims will be these: Louise represents the earthly, the prosaic, the finite; and Johanna represents the pure, the poetic, the infinite'.
- The song was originally titled "Seems Like a Freeze Out"; studio recordings from Blonde on Blonde's' early New York sessions, released on bootleg, have a much faster tempo (more similar to Most Likely You'll Go Your Way And I'll Go Mine) and, in the fifth verse, contain the additional line, "He examines the nightingale's code". Two slower versions were recorded in New York, one with a march-like tempo (which was released on the No Direction Home soundtrack), and another with a more conventional rock tempo, closer to the album version recorded in Nashville.
- Two live versions of the song recorded during Dylan's 1966 tour of England have been released. One version appeared on Biograph, released in 1985. A second version was recorded at the Manchester Free Trade Hall concert, released as the fourth volume of the Bootleg Series, which was titled The "Royal Albert Hall" Concert as a jab at bootleggers who had erroneously referred to the Manchester concert as such for years prior. Many critics and fans have come to regard these stark, evocative live recordings as superior to the album version.
- In Perth, during the Australia tour of 1966, Dylan treated the audience to an otherwise unknown verse of "Visions of Johanna". This verse introduces two new characters, Amelia, who describes Australia as "God's favourite failure", and "A Maya with gloves", who talks about love and chocolate. There is no indication that Dylan has performed this verse on any other occasion.
