Nashville Skyline - CD Releases
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. This page is still incomplete - more international stereo releases of this album required. For Nashville Skyline LP and tape releases, click Up. For releases of this album in CBS/Columbia 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!

CBS/Sony 28DP 1024 had a green and white obi in the "CBS CD ROCK 100" series with reduced price ¥2,800 (again, the "28" in the catalogue number means the price is ¥2,800). It had a 20-page booklet.

Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and to Wil Gielen for definitive dates and scans.

"Nashville Skyline" - CD releases, CBS CDCBS 63601 (Austria for Europe), mid 1980s, reissued late 1980s; Columbia CD 63601 (Austria for Europe), early 1990s; CBS/Sony COL CD 63601 (Spain), early 1990s:
CBS CDCBS 63601 (Austria for Europe), mid 1980s, reissued late 1980s; Columbia CD 63601 (Austria for Europe), early 1990s:
The first release of CBS CDCBS 63601 has no barcode on the rear insert and the disc was made in Japan. The second CBS release now has a barcode and the disc was made in Austria.
This album was included in Bob Dylan Volume Two, a 1990s 3CD set with three individual CDs in a card box containing Subterranean Homesick Blues [Bringing It All Back Home], Highway 61 Revisited and Nashville Skyline. All three CDs had the "CBS" logo and the same catalogue number, 467391 2, and were made in Austria. There were three variants of this set with different front and rear card box designs (the second front comes with two different rear designs). For more details of the set, see International Album Releases (Multi-Packs) 1990s.
The Columbia release has a "Nice Price" sticker, a different rear insert design and a CD with two red panels.
CBS/Sony COL CD 63601 (Spain), early 1990s:
The Spanish 1990s CD release is on CBS/Sony because the Columbia name could not be used in Spain for legal reasons. It has the Sony Music Spanish address, Paseo de la Castellana, 93, 28046-Madrid. The artwork was printed in Spain. The CD has the CBS/Sony logo and the Dutch "BIEM/STEMRA" copyright details, although it was made in Austria.
Thanks to Keith Schweiger, Manuel García Jara, Éamonn Ó Catháin, Kenneth Robson, Billy Bolley and Gerd Rundel for information and scans.
"Nashville Skyline" - CD releases, CBS CDCBS 63601 (Australia), late 1980s, re-released 1990; Columbia CDCBS 63601 (Australia), early 1990s, re-released 1995; ; gold CD release, CBS/Columbia 190758668925 (Australia), 6 Jul 2018:
CBS CDCBS 63601 (Australia), late 1980s, re-released 1990:
Columbia CDCBS 63601 (Australia), early 1990s, re-released 1995:
The two Columbia releases are almost identical except that on the early 1990s CD the text "MANUFACTURED IN AUSTRALIA BY SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT (AUSTRALIA) LIMITED" in on three lines, and on the 1995 CD the text is on four lines.
CBS/Columbia 190758668925 (Australia), 6 Jul 2018:
Thanks to Bill Hester, Keith Schweiger and Stuart Moore for information and scans.
"Nashville Skyline" - CD release, Columbia COL 63601/465214 2 (France), 1993:
This CD, which was sealed when bought in France, is an oddity. The catalogue number is "COL 63601" on the inserts (like other European releases of the time), but the disc itself has catalogue number "465214 2" and the text "DISC 2". This CD must be the one that was included in the French multi-pack "Two Originals" - "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" & "Nashville Skyline" (see International Album Releases (Multi-Packs) 1990s), released there with catalogue number "465214 2", where Nashville Skyline was disc #2. The disc of the French multi-pack has been reused for this release as a single CD!
Thanks to Manuel García Jara for information and scans.

The obi has price ¥1,890 (¥1,800 before tax) and release date "04-8-18" (18 Aug 2004). The original release date is shown as "69-4-9" (9 Apr 1969) and the withdrawal date as "05-2-17" (17 Feb 2005).

Columbia/Sony Music 88697 51773 2 (NL) - box rear scan by Tom Willems |
"The Complete Album Collection Vol. One" - 47CD boxed set, Columbia/Legacy/Sony Music 88691-92431-2 (USA), 5 Nov 2013/(Europe), 4 Nov 2013; USB stick, Columbia/Legacy/Sony Music 88883-77314-5 (USA), 5 Nov 2013/(Europe), 4 Nov 2013; Sony Music SICP 30471-30520 (Japan), 26 Mar 2014 onwards:
This massive set is the latest in a series of "Complete Columbia Album Collections" featuring artists such as Miles Davis, Charlie Mingus, Duke Ellington, Dave Brubeck and even Blue Oyster Cult. The CD version of the set includes 41 Dylan albums in card sleeves, 14 of which have been remastered for this project, plus a 2CD set of previously released non-album tracks entitled Side Tracks. The albums exclude all compilations and The Bootleg Series sets, but do include the deleted 1973 Dylan album, see 1973, and the extra 2CD set Side Tracks includes one side of the 1971 single George Jackson (Acoustic version), R-0085, see 1971. The set is therefore listed in 2013. The set also includes a hard cover book with extensive new liner notes and previously unseen photos.
All the CDs come in card sleeves. The European sleeves are made of thicker card than the US sleeves, but they are otherwise identical, so are not shown. The catalogue number on the sleeve is "88691924312JK9" plus "DISC 10". The CDs are different in detail, the US Nashville Skyline CD has catalogue number "88691924312D10", whereas the European CD has catalogue number "88691924312-10". The European CD was made in the EU (probably Austria). The US and European copyright details are printed at the bottom of the Bob Dylan CDs, and round the circumference for The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan onwards, so I haven't shown them for the later CDs.
For more details of the set, see International Album Releases (Multi-Packs) 2010s.
The Complete Album Collection: The 60's - picture from www.amazon.com |
Thanks to Sonny Boy McFitzson for news that The Complete Album Collection was released in Japan in four decade-related parts, with the intention to release them all in 2014. The first part, called Dylan '60s, was released by Sony Music Japan on 26 Mar 2014. The Blu-Spec CD2 specification CDs come in card sleeves with printed inner sleeves and "SONY MUSIC" instead of "COLUMBIA" on the discs, which are numbered SICP 30471 to SICP 30481 (Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits, not included in the US and European sets, is included here as SICP 30479). Side Tracks, to be released at the same time, is SICP 30519-20. All the sleeves will have orange top obis similar to the 2004 Japanese releases in card sleeves. | ||||

Sony Music SICP 30481 (Japan) - spine of card
sleeve, photocopy by Paul Shenton
The 2014 remastered Nashville Skyline is SICP 30481 (this album was not one of those released in Japan in Blu-spec CD2 format in 2013). The front and rear of the card sleeve reproduce the original Columbia US release KCS 9825 sleeve but the new catalogue number of SICP 30481 is on the spine. There is a 20-page Japanese language booklet with liner note and song lyrics printed on very thin paper. This copy is missing its top obi. There are two double-sided card inserts and the CD comes in a clear plastic shaped sleeve inside a stiff paper reproduction Columbia US 1969 inner sleeve as used for original US releases of Nashville Skyline. The CD design is a partial reproduction of the original Columbia US KCS 9825 1969 Side with "SONY MUSIC " instead of "COLUMBIA". The 1969 Japanese release was CBS/Sony SONP-50095.
Thanks to Éamonn Ó Catháin for the picture of the 1960s decade set from www.amazon.com. Thanks to Manuel García Jara and Paul Shenton for information and pictures.
