This page is part of a list of original releases by release date of international commercially-released regular stereo Dylan albums. They do not contain rarities or obscurities and are not eligible for the Searching For A Gem list. Nevertheless, their interest value or scarcity means they're worth listing here - as far as I know some are not included on any other Internet site. Promo releases of regular albums are now listed here and no longer in the former yearly Promo sections.

Because of the length of this page, Freewheelin' Tape and CD releases are now here:

Freewheelin' 1963 - CD Releases ] Freewheelin' 1963 - Tape Releases ]

This page is still incomplete - more entries required. For releases of this album in CBS/Columbia multi-packs, see International Album Releases (Regular) - Multi-Packs.

Revised 26 January, 2012.


Original US stereo LP, Columbia CS 8786, 27 May 1963. For the mono release of this album, see Mono Album Releases.

For details of the withdrawn original album with four replaced tracks, see 1963.

The front sleeve photo of Bob and his then girlfriend Suze Rotolo (who sadly died in Feb 2011) was again taken by Don Hunstein, who took the Bob Dylan cover picture, on Jones Street in Greenwich Village, New York City, which joins up with the notorious 4th Street at its eastern end (actually West 4th Street at this point). Thanks to Eric Baumel for confirming the location and to Bill Hester for further information.


Jones Street, New York City, 20 Dec 2009, photo by Karen Hester

Thanks to Arie de Reus for this contact strip of photos of Bob and Suze taken by Don Hunstein during the photo session. These pictures are on Kodak Plus X Pan film, which was black and white, so must come from a second camera.

This title was one of the fifteen Dylan albums released in late 2003 as a hybrid CD/SA-CD. This is playable both in stereo on an ordinary CD player and in enhanced stereo on an SA-CD player or a DVD player that also plays SA-CDs (Sony's higher range models all do this). This period was one of great creativity for Bob, and there are many excellent unreleased tracks from the Freewheelin' sessions - sadly the opportunity to include many of these as bonus tracks was missed.

Out-takes from this album have been officially released as follows:

Biograph (1985): Baby, I'm In The Mood For You; Mixed Up Confusion (alternate take, see 1962)

Columbia CS 8786 (USA) - Side 1 scan by Hans Seegers (first release, with black text)


Columbia CS 8786 (USA) - Side 2 scan by Hans Seegers (first release, with black text)

The first release of this album has a "STEREO/360º SOUND" logo at the top of the front sleeve and a white sticker with red text "SINGING HIS SENSATIONAL HIT 'BLOWIN' IN THE WIND' ". The record has red Columbia labels with the "STEREO/360º SOUND" text in black and "NONBREAKABLE" on the left of the centre hole below the catalogue number. The vertical text at the bottom left of the front sleeve is "© COLUMBIA RECORDS". This is missing on the second release sleeve. Gerd Rundel's demo copy of the first release has stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM-58719-3B, Side 2 - XSM-58720-2B. There is a small "1" in the lower right hand corner of the rear sleeve.


Columbia CS 8786 (USA) - front scan by Hans Seegers (second release)

The second release in 1964 had an almost identical sleeve, but the labels this time had the "STEREO/360º SOUND" logos in white. The text "MASTERWORKS" has been added to the bottom of the label.

Columbia CS 8786 (USA) - front scan by Hans Seegers (third release - mono sleeve with "Stereo" sticker)
The third release in 1965 used the mono cover with a "Stereo" sticker - note especially that the title text on the front sleeve is now at the very top of the sleeve. The rear is the same as the mono release of the album.

Columbia CS 8786 (USA) - Side 2 scan by Hans Seegers (third release, with white text, no "MASTERWORKS")

The record labels are similar to the second release with the "STEREO/360º SOUND" logos in white. The differences are that the text "MASTERWORKS" has now gone from the bottom of the label, as has the text "NONBREAKABLE" on the left of the centre hole below the catalogue number.


Columbia CS 8786 (USA) - Side 1 scan by Jeremy Mayle (fourth release, with white text, no "MASTERWORKS")
Jeremy Mayle has what must be a fourth release, with the same sleeve as the second release but with labels where the catalogue number CS 8786 to the left of the centre hole is now italicised, and has "STEREO" underneath it, missing from the third release labels. This must date from the late 1960s, as the next release has this detail but 1970s style labels. The matrix numbers are: Side 1 - XSM 58719-3B. Side 2 - XSM 58720-2AG.
Columbia CS 8786 (USA) - Side 2 scan by Jeremy Mayle (fourth release, with white text, no "MASTERWORKS")

Columbia CS 8786 (USA) - detail of front, scan by Daniel Pritchett (fifth release, vertical text on left)

Daniel Pritchett's fifth release copy still has what looks like the second sleeve with the front vertical text and a heart emblem on the rear at bottom left, but the record has 1970s style Columbia labels with the logo in a ring.

Columbia CS 8786 (USA) - Side 1 scan by Daniel Pritchett (fifth release)


Columbia CS 8786 (USA) - detail of Side 1, scan by Daniel Pritchett (fifth release - fourth release has the same detail)


Columbia CS 8786 (USA) - Side 2 scan by Daniel Pritchett (fifth release)

The catalogue number of the new style labels is still CS 8786, not PC 8786 as in the next release. The record matrix numbers are the same as the copy sold in Denmark below.

Thanks to Hans Seegers, Gerd Rundel, Howard Bender and Daniel Pritchett for information and scans.


"The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" - stereo vinyl LP, Columbia KCS 8786 (USA), 1975:


Columbia KCS 8786 (USA) - front scan by Hans Seegers (1975 release)

This album has a new catalogue number, KCS 8786. It still has the stereo/arrows logo on the front sleeve and "© COLUMBIA RECORDS" printed vertically at bottom left. The record has 1970s style Columbia labels with a ring of logos round the circumference.

Thanks to Manuel Garcia Jara and Hans Seegers for information and scans.

"The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" - stereo vinyl LP, Columbia PC 8786 (USA), late 1970s, 1992:


Columbia PC 8786 (USA) - front scan by Hans Seegers (late 1970s release - stereo sleeve with new logo and blanked out rectangle above Bob's head)
In the late 1970s this album was renumbered as Columbia PC 8786 and was on sale for 22 years. It used the stereo sleeve design again, with a new logo in the top left corner, and a noticeably-different coloured rectangle above Bob's head where the old  "STEREO/360º SOUND" logo had been! The red record labels had "Columbia" in a ring round the outside of the label in orange.

Columbia PC 8786 was re-released in 1992 using the same sleeve with only minor differences (see below). The record had red 1990s style labels.

Paul Prince has a 1980s US release on red vinyl. This is one of two copies of PC 8786 pressed privately by a Columbia USA employee at the Santa Maria, CA, plant.

Thanks to Hans Seegers and Paul Prince for information and scans.


"The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" - stereo vinyl LP, Columbia/Absolute Analog PC 8786 (USA), 2001:


Columbia PC 8786 (USA) - sticker from front of 2001 Absolute Analog release

The latest US vinyl release of this album was on 180gm vinyl and came from Absolute Analog in 2001, using the same sleeve and labels as the 1992 PC 8786 release. The only differences are the two "180gm" stickers on the front sleeve, illustrated below.

Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scans.

"The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" - stereo vinyl LP, Columbia/CBS CS 8786 (USA for export), 1963:


Columbia CS 8786 (USA for export) - front scan by Gerd Rundel (first release, with "Columbia" obscured)

Gerd Rundel has a copy of the first release of CS 8786 bought in Europe with "Columbia" obscured on the front sleeve, and hidden by "CBS" stickers on the rear sleeve, the inner sleeve and the record labels. This copy has stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM-58719-3L, Side 2 - XSM-58720-2H.

Gerd Rundel also has a second copy of the first release of CS 8786 bought in Europe, again with "Columbia" obscured on the front sleeve (although the "CBS" sticker is now missing), and one "CBS" sticker on the rear sleeve and the record labels. "Columbia" in the sleeve notes and record label copyright text has not been obscured. The rear sleeve has "PRINTED IN USA" at bottom left and a "1" at bottom right. The record of this copy has stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM-58719-3AF, Side 2 - XSM-58720-2L.

"The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" - stereo vinyl LP, Columbia CS 8786 (USA for export), 1964:

Columbia CS 8786 (USA for export) - Side 2 scan by Howard Bender (second release with shaped "CBS" sticker, includes "MASTERWORKS")

Howard Bender has a copy of the 1964 second release similar to Gerd Rundel's first release copy with all instances of the name "Columbia" on the front and rear sleeve and the record labels covered stickers. Like the first release album, this copy was sourced from Columbia USA for export to a country where the "CBS" name was used. Thanks to Gerd Rundel for finding a copy on eBay with white ring stickers with "C.B.S." round the outside of the labels. This was sold in Switzerland. For a 1970s copy with similar stickers purchased in Denmark see below.

"The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" - stereo vinyl LP, Columbia/CBS KCS 8786 (USA for export to Denmark), early 1970s:


Columbia KCS 8786 (USA for export to Denmark) - detail of front, scan by Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen ("Columbia" covered with "CBS" sticker)


Columbia CS 8786 (USA for export to Denmark) - Side 1 scan by Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen ("Columbia" covered with "CBS" ring sticker)


Columbia KCS 8786 (USA for export to Denmark) - detail of rear, scan by Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen ("Columbia" covered with "CBS" sticker)
Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen has a confusing copy of the early 1970s US release of this album bought in Denmark. It has all the Columbia logos either covered with "CBS" stickers or blacked out. The labels are the US fourth release style (see above) with catalogue number CS 8786 and a ring-shaped sticker round the outside edge hiding the repeated Columbia logos. The front sleeve has the STEREO/arrows logo and a catalogue number of KCS 8786. Matrix numbers are: Side 1 - XSM 58719-3BH, Side 2 - XSM 58720-2AK.

Lars M. Banke has copies of Nashville Skyline and Self Portrait bought in Denmark with the same type of stickers, so it would appear these imports do date from the early 1970s. Howard Bender has a copy of the 1964 second US release with similar stickers, see above.

Thanks to Hans Seegers for further information.

For more information about the Canadian mono release, see Mono Album Releases. Note the front picture is a higher crop of the source photo than the US front. (More sky above Bob's head, less road below his feet, although the song titles are in the same position.)


Columbia CS 8786 (Canada) - front scan by Hans Seegers (first release)

The front sleeve of the first Canadian release of Freewheelin' Columbia CS 8986 had in error the withdrawn track listing as shown below (see 1963 for details of the withdrawn album). However, the record inside was the regular release. The rear sleeve had the revised track listing but with only 12 songs listed, omitting Don't Think Twice, It's All Right even though it was on the album. Hans Seegers' record has red Columbia labels with black "360º SOUND" text and stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM-58719-3AA, Side 2 - XSM-58720-2C.

The re-release in 1975 corrected both the tracklisting on the front sleeve (also see below) and the omission of  Don't Think Twice, It's All Right on the rear sleeve. The record has orange Columbia labels with the Columbia logo round the circumference and matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM-58719-2A-2GH (written), Side 2 - XSM-58720-2AK (stamped).

Columbia KCS 8786 (Canada) - Side 2 scan by Hans Seegers

Gerd Rundel has a copy of Columbia CS 8786 with two different labels - Side 1 has the first release label with black "STEREO" text while Side 2 has the second release label with the same text in white. The sleeve is the same as Bill Matthews' described below except for a record store label. It has "LITHO IN CANADA" on the spine. The record has stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM-58719-3AK, Side 2 - XSM-58720-2C.

Stan Denski has a copy of Columbia CS 8786 from the early 1970s with a reprint of the first Canadian sleeve with the withdrawn track listing and with the red Columbia "360º SOUND" labels. The sleeve printer was Shorepak Canada, and the rear sleeve has text "SHOREPAK CAN. PAT. NO. 758888, 1967." (not on the original sleeve). The original 1960 release had what was known as a "fabricated" sleeve, with artwork printed on to paper which was then pasted on to a thick grey card cover, but this 1970s release is "board-printed", a later design with the artwork printed directly on to slightly thinner white cardboard (as is the 1975 release). Stan previously had what must have been a later copy of this 1970s release because it had the same sleeve but the red and gold 1970s labels.

On the reissue KCS 8786 front sleeve the replacement track listings for Side 1 and Side 2 look as if they have been pasted in from another sleeve, as they are both in rectangles of a slightly different colour from that of the background!

Bill Matthews has a copy of CS 8786 which is significantly different from Stan Denski's: the front sleeve has the withdrawn titles as shown above but the vertical "Copyright Columbia Records" text only reaches up to Masters Of War (in the detail picture shown it reaches beyond the track titles). The rear sleeve does not list Don't Think Twice, It's All Right, the "LITHO IN CANADA" text is moved to the spine near the bottom, and the text "Shorepak Canada" is absent, indicating it's probably from another printer. The labels have the "360º SOUND" text in white on Side 1 and in white and black on Side 2, matrix numbers are: Side 1 - XSM-58719-3AK, Side 2 - XSM-58720-2C.

Thanks to Hans Seegers and Gerd Rundel for information and scans.
 

Columbia KCS 8786 (Canada) - front scan from an Internet record dealer
This interesting item is said to be a picture disc edition of the Columbia Canada release. However, as far as I know, no Dylan picture discs have ever been released by Columbia worldwide. These albums were made in Germany or Italy.

Thanks to Ed Ricardo for finding this item.

CBS SBPG 62193 (UK) - front scan by Gerd Rundel (1963 release with "STEREO" logo)

The first stereo UK Freewheelin', catalogue number CBS SBPG 62193, was released in 1963. Gerd Rundel has two copies in a stereo sleeve with black stereo/arrows logo front and back, but with the records made by Fontana/Philips on behalf of CBS Records, which he believes are the actual first UK releases. These can be distinguished by the text "RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED 1963" on the orange CBS record labels to the right of the centre hole. The first Fontana/Philips record has stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - SBPGs62193s1Ys1//420 1, Side 2 - SBPGs62193s2Ys1//420 1. ("s" is an upside-down triangle from a font called Webdings, if you can't see it, download it here .) The second Fontana/Philips record has completely different stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - SBPG-62193-1A-1, Side 2 - SBPG-62193-2B-1. The first record sleeve has two folded over flaps and the US catalogue number on the rear sleeve is correctly shown as "CS 8786" (the stereo number). The second record sleeve has three folded over flaps and the US catalogue number is wrongly shown as "CL 1786" (the mono number). The black "STEREO"/arrows logos on the rear sleeves are also positioned differently.

CBS SBPG 62193 (UK) - front scan by Hans Seegers (1963 onwards releases without "STEREO" logo - same as mono front)
The third 1963 release came in the UK mono sleeve with three folded over flaps. According to Hans Seegers the stereo sleeves were withdrawn for cost reasons - this situation persisted in the UK until Nashville Skyline, my copy of that album has a gold foil "Stereo" sticker on a stereo/mono sleeve. The third 1963 Freewheelin' sleeve had a red "STEREO" stamp and the record was pressed by CBS. The labels of the 1963 CBS pressed records have "è1963" to the right of the centre hole as opposed to "RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED 1963" on the Fontana/Philips record labels above. This copyright date is missing on the labels of the 1964 releases below. The record speed is shown as just "33". The CBS record shown has stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - SBPG-62193-1A-1, Side 2 - SBPG-62193-2B-1.

The front sleeve of the first 1964 release is identical to that of the third 1963 release (mono sleeve). The rear sleeve comes without folded over flaps and with the same "STEREO"/arrows stamp in red as the 1963 sleeve, but differently positioned. The record shown has orange CBS labels with a slightly different layout and matrix numbers as before: Side 1 - SBPG-62193-1A-1, Side 2 - SBPG-62193-2B-1. The record speed is shown as "33⅓" and there is no publication date. Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen has a copy of this first 1964 release with matrix numbers: Side 1 - S62193-A1, Side 2 - S62193-B3.

The second 1964 release is from late in that year and has an identical front sleeve to the first 1964 release. The rear sleeve has a black on gold foil stereo hexagonal sticker and has a different lay out than the previous one with stereo information in a box at the bottom. Both sleeves were printed by Ernest J. Day & Co., Ltd., London W11. The record has orange CBS labels, again with a slightly different layout, and matrix numbers as before: Side 1 - SBPG-62193-1A-1, Side 2 - SBPG-62193-2B-1. The record speed is still shown as "33⅓", but in much smaller text.



CBS SBPG 62193 (UK) - detail of front, scan by Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen (third 1964 release)
Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen has a copy bought in Denmark of what looks like the second 1964 release of CBS SBPG 62193. The sleeve is laminated on the front only. The front CBS logo is thickly drawn and larger than the next example (see below). There is a gold foil hexagonal "Stereo" sticker on the rear sleeve, which has the text box with stereo information and shows the printer's name of Ernest J. Day & Co., Ltd. and "GB" vertically at bottom right. The record has orange CBS labels with playing speed "33⅓" and matrix numbers: Side 1 - S62193-A1, Side 2 - S62193-B1. What is unusual is the inner sleeve, which dates from 1969 and shows an illustration of Nashville Skyline.

Rene Kejlskov Jørgensen has a second copy bought in Denmark of what looks like a 1970s release of CBS SBPG 62193. The sleeve is laminated on the front and part of the back. The front CBS logo is thinly drawn and smaller than the previous example (see above). The rear sleeve still has the text box with stereo information and shows the printer's name of Ernest J. Day & Co., Ltd. and "GB" vertically at bottom right. The record still has orange CBS labels with playing speed "33⅓" and matrix numbers: Side 1 - S62193 A1, Side 2 - S62193-B3. The inner sleeve dates from 1972 and shows for example an illustration of Simon & Garfunkel's Greatest Hits (released 14 Jun 1972).



CBS SBPG 62193 (UK) - front scan by Manuel Garcia Jara (1980s release)
This 1980s copy of CBS SBPG 62193 was signed by Bob at a show in Spain in the early 1990s. The front CBS logo is again thinly drawn and the same size as the previous example (see above). The rear sleeve has "CB 271 60" at top right and "LC 0149" in a capsule at bottom right as well as "GB" printed vertically. This time there is no printer's name.

The record has orange/yellow CBS labels and matrix numbers: Side 1 - CBS 62193 A5, Side 2 - CBS 62193 B5. The catalogue number on the labels is just "BPG 62193".

Thanks to Manuel Garcia Jara for information and scans.

Columbia/Simply Vinyl 62193/SVLP 0003 (UK) - front scan by Hans Seegers (2001 release)
The Simply Vinyl series on Columbia, catalogue number 62193/SVLP 0003, was released in 1999 on 180gm vinyl. The copy shown is in a still-sealed plastic sleeve. The album was subsequently released by Simply Vinyl on 125gm vinyl, with a new catalogue number, 8786/S 125017 in 2001 and 2003. The sticker on the 2001 release mentioned the 125gm weight, the sticker on the 2003 release said only "Heavy Vinyl", but there was a second round sticker that said "160G VINYL PRESSING". The front sleeve of the 2001/2003 releases has no CBS logo.

Thanks to Hans Seegers, Gerd Rundel and Nol Grint for information and scans.

"The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" - stereo vinyl LP releases, CBS CS 8786 (Singapore), 1965:


CBS CS 8786 (Singapore) - front scan by Hans Seegers (version 1)

These albums have "PRINTED IN USA" along the bottom of the rear sleeve, so the sleeves were imported from there. The sleeve of this copy is virtually identical to the US stereo release, although it has "© CBS RECORDS 1963" along the bottom line of text. This is no country of origin on the record labels, but they were probably printed locally. The labels have the US red "360º SOUND" design with three CBS logos. This record has stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM-58719, Side 2 - XSM-58720. Gerd Rundel has a copy in the same sleeve with "NONBREAKABLE" to the left of the centre hole of the record labels, missing from Hans' copy. It has the same matrix numbers but handwritten: Side 1 - XSM 58719, Side 2 - XSM 58720. The album title is slightly higher on Side 2.

Gerd Rundel's second copy uses the US mono sleeve with a "Stereo" sticker on the front. The rear sleeve has "© COLUMBIA RECORDS 1963" on the copyright line above the "GUARANTEED HIGH FIDELITY" text. The record labels again have three CBS logos and the record has the same matrix numbers, again handwritten. The labels do not have "NONBREAKABLE".

CBS had a record pressing facility in Singapore from 1967, so records after that were sourced locally.

"The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" - stereo vinyl LP, CBS SBP-233145 (Australia), 1967, re-released late 1960s, 1970s:

FreewheelinAusStereoFront.jpg (36268 bytes)
CBS SBP-233145 (Australia) - front scan by Stuart Moore (first 1960s release)
The 1960s releases use the UK crop of the front photo with a central "Stereo" logo, much smaller on the third 1960s release and the 1970s release. The rear sleeve of the first and second 1960s releases has two fold-over flaps and the sleeve is laminated on the front only. The third 1960s release and the 1970s release rear sleeves have no fold over flaps and have a bottom text box missing from the rear of the first and second releases.

The 1960s records have orange CBS labels. The first and second release labels have the "Allan's" logo, which is missing from the third release labels. (Allan's were music publishers in Australia for Bob Dylan records between 1965 and 1969, so the third release is after then.) The second release labels have a smaller Allan's logo and the song titles are in italics. The copy shown of the second release has matrix numbers: Side 1 - MX144489 SBP 233145-1, Side 2 - MX144490 SBP 233145-2. The copy of the third 1960s release record shown has stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - MX 144489/90-B SBP 233145-1, Side 2 - MX 144489/90-C SBP 233145-2. The record from the 1970s release has new style orange/yellow CBS labels.

The 1960s record labels shown have round the circumference at the bottom the text "MADE IN AUSTRALIA BY A REGISTERED USER OF THE TRADE MARKS" without a CBS copyright. This is because up to 1977 all Australian records were manufactured by the Australian Record Company (Pty) Ltd. (A.R.C.) on behalf of CBS. A.R.C. changed its name to CBS Records Australia Limited on 17 Oct 1977, and after that date the longer bottom edge text includes the CBS copyright information.

Although it was not released in Spain until 1971, contrary to previous reports this album was not banned by the Franco regime in the 1960s. The front sleeve is similar to the mono sleeves (the high crop), with "Stereo" above the CBS logo. The rear sleeve has notes in Spanish. Detail of the text at the bottom of the rear sleeve is below. This album was also available in Spain with a second label bearing the logo of the Dutch copyright organisation STEMRA and an imported Dutch stereo sleeve (the first release - see above). Both releases had CBS orange labels.
