The beginning of this masterpiece published in 1969 is strong...listen to this beautiful rendition of "Memory Pain"...

Another highlight is the famous Winter's version of "Highway 61 Revisited"...

And we can't forget this gem...all the musicians so involved...listen to "Fast Life Rider"...

It 's very interesting the 2004 Columbia/Legacy Records edition with bonus tracks,but especially with a stunning live show at Royal Albert Hall!
