Is this the same road Bob Dylan wrote a song about?

Yep. And where legend has it that bluesman Robert Johnson sold his soul to the Devil. The crossroads of hwys 61 and 49 in Clarksdale, MS.

Features the BEST, ALL-TIME Rock-and-or-Roll song. EVER!

"Like a Rolling Stone"

Ahh princess on a steeple and all the pretty people
They're all drinking, thinking that they've got it made
Exchanging all precious gifts
But you better take your diamond ring,
You better pawn it babe

You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him he calls you, you can't refuse
When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you've got no secrets to conceal

How does it feel, ah how does it feel?
To be on your own, with no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone

Pretty sure it’s U.S. 61. Dylan was talking about the other end, down in the Mississippi Delta.

Yes, right after he wrote the song he put some bleachers out in the sun.
