"It's easier to be disconnected than connected," Dylan confessed in late 1965. "I've got a huge hallelujah for all the people who're connected, that's great, but I can't do that." He never sounded lonelier than in this seven-minute ballad, cut in a single take on Valentine's Day 1966. His band included Nashville session pro Al Kooper on Hammond B3 organ.
