Like a rolling stone Part 1 b/w Like a rolling stone Part 2 by Bob Dylan (CBS 1.952)


Stupidity number???????? I bought this single when it had just been released. That was the version with "Like a rolling stone" cut in two parts and dispersed over two sides of a 7" single. The second pressing came out with the complete song on the A-side and "Gates of Eden" on the flipside. A friend of mine bought that second edition and laughed at me: he had twice as much music for the same money! I later sold or swapped my original, not realizing this Part 1 / Part 2 version would become a collector's item.......
Revolutionary music entering the Top 10 with Mike Bloomfield on guitar and Al Kooper on organ. But where was the cut exactly on the original single?
