Reference Needed
"However, in recent years the album has been rediscovered and is considered by some fans as among Dylan's most fascinating efforts."

This badly needs a reference. Could someone please come up with one? - Otherwise I recommend deletion. I have never seen this album described as `fascinating', and I'm in the died-in-the-wool-follower-of-Dylan category. --86.132.131.15 21:31, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Album Title
The song Junco Partner sung by various artists e.g. The Holy Modal Rounders (recorded 1964 according to sleeve notes on the compilation album Blues in the Bottle, CDWIK 71, 1988,  contains the lyrics in the first verse

Down the road Down the road Down the road Came Junco Partner, partner, partner He was loaded as can be He was knocked out, knocked out loaded He was loaded with misery

It would seem possible that Bob Dylan had heard this song and used these words for the album title.

 * Junco Partner is a traditional blues tune from Louisiana that's been done by a bunch of famous artists, including The Clash and Harry Connick Jr. The lyrics tend to change, but the line "He was knocked out, knocked out loaded" seems pretty consistent.  I feel it's likely the origin of this album's title, but obviously a reputable source would have to be found.  p.355 of Keys To The Rain by Oliver Trager (available on google books) mentions this, but it seems speculative even there.72.199.28.81 (talk) 20:47, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
