From NEW YORK FOLKLORE (Vol. 22):
"Besides exhibiting ideas about space and time, artistic expressions referring to Highway 61 have used the road as symbol and artistic frame. Like other numbered highways in African-American blues, Highway 61 has symbolized power, status, and opportunities for northward escape from personal misfortunes in southern localities."—Peter Naráez ("From New York City down to the Gulf of Mexico": Highway 61 in African-American Blues, Bob Dylan’s Songs, and Canadian Film)

NOTE: The New York Folklore Society Newsletter and New York Folklore Journal were replaced by
Voices: The Journal of New York Folklore
which debuted in December, 2000.
