The Times They Are A-Changin'
|
|
This page is part of a new section 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 not in the yearly Promo sections. Because of the length of this page, The Times They Are A Changin' CD releases are now here. This page is still incomplete - more entries required. For vinyl and tape releases of this album in CBS multi-packs, see International Album Releases (Regular) - Multi-Packs. |

If you have any entries to add to the list or additions/corrections to
existing entries, please let me know!
Please note I cannot value your Dylan rarities -
see the Mission page for reasons why. Contact the
dealers on my Trading page for assistance!

 Original US CD release |
Original US stereo LP, Columbia CS 8905, 10 Feb 1964, CD released Jan 1989. 10 Feb 1964 is the release date given by bobdylan.com, Brian Hinton's 2006 book "Bob Dylan Album File & Complete Discography" (Cassell Illustrated), dates it as 13 Jan 1964. The front photograph was taken by Barry Feinstein, uncredited. It's a pastiche of a Woody Guthrie photo. The picture on the right is a composite of UK CBS and US Columbia album covers - the UK album cover starts at the top of the picture with the CBS logo and ends just below the top visible unbuttoned button on Bob's shirt; the US mono album cover starts just above the text, cutting off more of the top of Bob's head and ends as shown showing the buttoned button. (The Columbia logo is below the "N" of "DYLAN", not above the text - see Mono Album Releases.) For mono releases of this album, see Mono Album Releases. |

Vinyl and Tape Releases
"The Times They Are A-Changin'" - stereo vinyl LP,
Columbia CS 8905 (USA), 10 Feb 1964, reissued 1965, 1967; Columbia KCS 8905 (USA), early
1970s; Columbia PC 8905 (USA), 1992/2001:
For the mono release of CS 8905, Columbia CL 2105, see Mono Album Releases.

The mono and stereo rear sleeves of CS 8905/CL 2105 were different on the initial release,
but subsequent US album releases from 1965 onwards used the same sleeve for both mono and
stereo versions as long as mono continued. The US stereo rear sleeve has
no track times but has the poems by
Bob, "11 Outlined Epitaphs", subsequently published in his
"Writings And Drawings" book and "Lyrics 1962-1985".
The rear sleeve showed the first three and a half poems, which were
continued on an insert. Henry V. Bell has two copies: the first has red Columbia labels with the "STEREO/360º SOUND" logos in black and matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM-75528-1G, Side 2 - XSM-75529-1G. The second has the "STEREO/360º SOUND" logos in white and matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM-75528-1E, Side 2 - XSM-75529-1E. Hans Seegers has a copy released in 1967of the version with the white Stereo logo without "UNBREAKABLE" to the left of the centre hole. That has matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM-75528-1AB (stamped), Side 2 - XSM-75529-1AC (written). There are also copies of this album that are mispressed. Even though the labels are correct, it plays Side 2 on both sides! (Stamped matrix number XSM-75529-1K on both sides.) See The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan for more information about these 1960s label differences. The album was reissued in the mid 1970s as Columbia KCS 8905 with red labels with yellow Columbia logos in a circle round the edge. This has stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - XSM-75528-1AH, Side 2 - XSM-75529-1AG. It was again released as Columbia PC 8905 in 1992 with plain red labels and Columbia in white, written matrix numbers: Side 1 - <P.AP> XSM-75528-G1D, Side 2 - <P.AP> XSM-75529-G2D. This release was reissued in 2001 on 180gm vinyl with the same matrix numbers. Information, photos and scans from Henry V. Bell and Hans Seegers. |

The UK rear sleeve not only has no track times, but also short-changes
the UK record-buying public by showing only "4 Outlined
Epitaphs"! The rear sleeve showed poems 1, 2, 7 and 8, and there was
no insert as with the US release. UK fans had to wait until the publication of
the book "Writings And
Drawings" in 1974 to get the full eleven. The first release of this stereo version of this album in 1964 used the UK mono cover with just a gold foil "Stereo" sticker on the back (some copies also have the UK mono cover without this sticker). The cover has three folded over flaps and the text "Record Sleeve Printed and Made by Dawson Rossiter Ltd." at the bottom of the rear sleeve. The record had orange CBS labels with "33" on the left of the centre hole and matrix numbers: Side 1 - SBPG 62251 A +1, Side 2 - SBPG 62251 B2. To the right of the centre hole is "SBPG 62551 A" and "(P) 1964". Mick Robinson has a copy printed by Dawson Rossiter with red stereo arrows on the back, but not on the front, which is in fact a later variant of the first cover. The record of this copy has matt orange labels with "33" on Side 2 (first release) and "331/3" on Side 1 (second release). It appears this was produced when CBS were changing over from the first release to the second release! Mick has another copy of the first release which he believes was manufactured by Fontana/Philips on behalf of CBS. It has a laminated paste-over sleeve with the black Stereo/arrows logo on the front only. The label has "33" to the left of the centre hole and "SBPG-62251 1Y" plus "RECORDING FIRST PUBLISHED 1964" to the right of the centre hole. Matrix Numbers: Side 1 - SBPG 62251 1Y// 1:420, Side 2 - SBPG 62251 2Y//1:420.
The second stereo release of the album, also in 1964, has the "STEREO"/arrows logo on the front and rear covers. The cover again has three folded over flaps. The record has orange CBS label with a different type face for the song titles and "331/3" on the left of the centre hole and matrix numbers: Side 1 - SBPG 62251 A4, Side 2 - SBPG 62251 B4. Henry V. Bell has a copy of this album with the first record but the second sleeve, so there was some overlap.
The third stereo release of the album, in 1965, has no stereo indications on the cover. The CBS logo on the front is smaller. This cover was printed by Shorewood Packaging Co. The record labels are the same as for the second release, but in a much lighter orange. Matrix numbers: Side 1 - SBPG 62251 A4, Side 2 - SBPG 62251 B5.
The fourth release of CBS SBPG 62251 is from 1975, and has orange/yellow CBS 1970s-style labels. Stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - SBPG 62251 A4, Side 2 - SBPG 62251 B5 (as for the third release). The printer's name is absent from the rear sleeve, but apart from that the sleeve is identical to that of the third release. The fifth release from 1979 was surprisingly renumbered CBS BPG 62251 (the old mono catalogue number). It has orange/yellow CBS 1970s-style labels, but a lighter orange than the previous release. Matrix numbers: Side 1 - 62251 (stamped), CBS S 32021 A6 (written); Side 2 - 62251 (stamped), CBS S 32021 B4 (written). The back cover has "LC 0149" in a capsule at the bottom right.
The final vinyl release was in 1985 and renumbered CBS 32021. It has red CBS 1980s-style labels with written matrix numbers Side 1 - CBS 32021-A4, Side 2 - CBS 32021-B5.

"Bob Dylan!/Vol. 4" - stereo vinyl album, CBS YS-641-C (Japan), Jul 1966:
 CBS YS-641-C (Japan) - front with obi, scan by Hans Seegers |
All Japanese Dylan releases before 1968, when
Sony took over Columbia/CBS, were in stereo. All these Japanese CBS
releases are very collectable and come with unique cover photos, inserts and
booklets. For the Japanese CBS Bob Dylan and Bob Dylan Vol. 2 albums, which were compilations, see International Album Releases (Other Dylan Compilations). For Bob Dylan Vol. 3, Vol. 5 and Vol. 6, which were also rebadged regular albums, see their respective album pages of International Albums (Regular). Vol. 3 was the first album Bob Dylan, Vol. 5 and Vol. 6 were the two halves of Blonde On Blonde. This release, with an exclusive anachronistic cover, is the regular 1964 The Times They Are A-Changin' album! The promo release shown has the same cover as the commercial release. For later Japanese releases of this album by CBS/Sony with the regular cover and title see below. Thanks to Jean-Pol Hiernaux and Scott Smith for information and to Hans Seegers for further information and scans. |

A pirate release of this album on coloured vinyl entitled Bob Dylan Vol. 1 was issued in Taiwan by First Records -who have no link with CBS/Columbia. This is included here in response to queries and for completeness. The reproduction of the cover is very poor. |

"The Times They Are A-Changin'" - stereo 4-track tape cartridge, Columbia 14 10 0314 (USA), 1967:
 Columbia 14 10 0314 (USA) - top of slipcase, scan by Hans Seegers |
This is a very rare item! 4-track was a short-lived continuous tape format,
quickly superseded by 8-track. It has only two "programs" per tape instead
of four as in 8-track (see below). The cartridge is in green plastic, contained inside a black
slipcase. The running order is changed as follows, to make both programs of equal length. Only A Pawn In Their Game and When The Ship Comes In are omitted! Program 1: The Times They Are A-Changin'; Boots Of Spanish Leather; The Lonesome Death Of Hattie Carroll; Restless Farewell. Program 2: Ballad Of Hollis Brown; With God On Our Side; One Too Many Mornings; North Country Blues. Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scans. For 1968 US and UK 8-track releases, which include Only A Pawn In Their Game and When The Ship Comes In, see below.

"The Times They Are A-Changin'" - stereo vinyl LP releases, CBS 62251 (NL), 1967 (three variants) & 1975/CBS 32021 (NL), 1982:
 CBS 62251 (NL) - detail from front of first 1967 release with yellow sticker, scan by Hans Seegers |
The 1967 album has three variants, all with the same insert
and record. The record has orange CBS labels with written matrix numbers
ST-62251/A and ST-62251/B. The insert continues the "11 Outlined Epitaphs". The first album uses a mono sleeve with yellow stickers with the CBS "STEREO"/arrows logo front and back. The sleeve has folded over flaps on three sides. The mystery is that this sleeve was never actually issued for the Dutch mono record - the mono cover was open on three sides in a plastic sleeve (a design unique to Holland). |

Dutch sleeve the CBS and "STEREO"/arrows logis are obscured. A rear sleeve difference from the Greek sleeve above is a tiny detail on the back - the number in the capsule is "CB 211" as opposed to "CB 231". The record has orange/yellow CBS labels. All information and scans from Hans Seegers. |

"The Times They Are A-Changin'" - stereo 8-track tape cartridge releases, Columbia 18 10 0314 (USA), 1968/CBS 42-62251 (UK), late 1960s:
 Columbia 18 10 0314 (USA) - top of slipcase, scan by Hans Seegers |
8-track was a continuous tape cartridge format, with four stereo "programs"
per tape. For a 1967 US 4-track release, which omits Only A Pawn In Their
Game and When The Ship Comes In, see above. The 1968 cartridge is in red
plastic, contained inside a black slipcase. It was released twice, first
with two separate rear and end labels, then with a wrap-around end/rear
label. The Columbia House release (sealed) had a blue slipcase and a black
cartridge. The mid-1970s Columbia release had a black cartridge and used the
same black slipcase as the 1968 releases. Rearranging the track order to
make all four programs of roughly equivalent length defeated the tape
compiler, so two tracks are split over two programs, even though the songs
are reordered: Program 1: The Times They Are A-Changin'; Ballad Of Hollis Brown; North Country Blues (Part 1). Program 2: North Country Blues (Conclusion); With God On Our Side; One Too Many Mornings. Program 3: Boots Of Spanish Leather; When The Ship Comes In; The Lonesome Death Of Hattie Carroll (Part 1). Program 4: The Lonesome Death Of Hattie Carroll (Conclusion); Only A Pawn In Their Game; Restless Farewell. The UK CBS release is a version of Columbia 18 10 0314, released around the same time. It does not have a slipcase. Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scans.

 CBS/Sony SONP 50249 (Japan) - detail from front. scan by Hans Seegers |
SONP 50249 in 1968 was the second Japanese release of this album - the first, released
by CBS in Jul 1966 before Sony took over the record company, was retitled
Bob Dylan/Vol. 4 (see above). It was the first CBS/Sony Japanese
release by Bob Dylan. The front cover of this release is the same as the
regular US cover, with the exception of the CBS/Sony logo and the "SX68
SOUND" logo. The 6-page folded booklet has a unique picture. The record shown has yellow
CBS/Sony promo labels. There was no obi. SOPL 222 in 1974 was the third Japanese release - it had an 8-page booklet and a top obi. The record of the promo release had white/black CBS/Sony labels, the commercial release had orange/cream CBS/Sony labels. |

 Columbia KCS 8905 (Canada) - detail from front sleeve, scan by Hans Seegers |
This album has red Columbia labels with
yellow Columbia logos in a circle round the
edge, as in the US version of KCS 8905 above. Differences in the front and
rear sleeves from the US version are shown. The insert with the continuation
of the "11 Outlined Epitaphs" is on a thin card of approximately A4 size
instead of a 12" x 12" paper sheet as in the US version. Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scans. |

CSJ Records CSJ-101 (Taiwan) - front scan by Hans Seegers |
These records were legal in Taiwan at the time of release, but were
produced without authorisation from Columbia. They had very flimsy covers,
which had to be protected inside plastic to survive. There are several front
cover variations. For more information, see Questionable Releases. Information, scans and photos from Hans Seegers and Ulf Gyllenspetz. |

Side. For that "censored" release, see Mono Album Releases. The rear cover repeats the front cover, and does
not have any of the poems. The record has orange/yellow CBS labels. Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scans. |
