R-0093 Somebody's Else's Troubles (Steve Goodman) - Bob plays piano and provides harmony vocals (stereo version)
This track had previously been released on a mono US single, Buddah Records BDA-326, in Oct 1972, see 1972.

This album was re-released on CD by Sequel in the UK with a bonus Dylan track in 1990, and in a remastered version with two bonus non-Dylan tracks by Buddha Records in July 1999. I've included the 1999 release here because the Dylan content is the same,

For Election Year Rag from this 1972 session featuring Bob, see 1972 and The Essential Steve Goodman Buddah Records US 2LP compilation, 1976.

There's some confusion about the spelling of the name of the record company. It was spelled as "Buddah" Records in the 1970s, but this spelling is in fact wrong. In the 1990s, when it was acquired by the BMG group, the label was given a new logo and its name was changed to "Buddha" Records. This new spelling is correct! Thanks to Hanns Peter Buschoff of BMG for information.

Thanks to Hans Seegers, Kenneth Robson and Ian Woodward for information and scans.

"Just Like A Woman"/"I Want You" - 7" mono single in "Hall Of Fame" series, Columbia 4-33108 (USA), 25 Apr 1973; Columbia 13-33108 (USA), 1975, reissued early 1980s and 1987:

For an appearance of R-0323 on a Japanese 7" acetate, see below. I Want You was previously reported to be the edited version R-0322 (see 1966), but here it is actually the standard mono album version at 2:57, see Mono 7" Singles & EPs 1966-68.

There were three label variations of Columbia 4-33108: without original release dates, with release dates in lower case, and with release dates in capitals. The third variant came with the jukebox strip illustrated. Unlike the UK single below, this single had no picture sleeve and used "Columbia Hall Of Fame" generic sleeves. All three variants came in shiny gold Columbia Hall Of Fame sleeves (see 7" Single Sleeves).

Columbia 13-33178 (USA) - detail of A-side of late 1980s release with Collectables logo, shown for information (my copy)

Columbia 13-33108 is much more easy to find and was first released in 1975: there were four label variants: with red labels and a sunburst to the right of the centre hole, with red labels without the sunburst to the right of the centre hole, with grey labels without a "Collectables" logo to the left of the centre hole, and in 1987 with grey labels with a "Collectables" logo to the left of the centre hole (not shown - a scan of another Collectables record label is shown for information). Earlier pressings came in non-shiny gold Columbia Hall Of Fame sleeves, later pressings came in yellow sleeves. For the 1987 Columbia Hall Of Fame sleeves and the Collectables sleeves, see 7" Single Sleeves.

For locations of other "Hall Of Fame" singles: those containing rarities, those in mono, and those in stereo, see "Hall Of Fame".

Please note that the black plastic clip shown in the scans by Kenneth Robson of Columbia 13-33108 is not an official CBS accessory. These clips were sold in record shops so that ex-jukebox records that had had their push-out centres removed could be played on standard turntables, especially automatic turntables that could play multiple singles or LPs (as an alternative to the plastic rings that could be placed on the turntable spindle in order to play ex-jukebox records).

Thanks to Hans Seegers and Kenneth Robson for information and scans.


Just Like A Woman"/"I Want You" - 7" stereo single in "Hall Of Fame Hits" series, CBS 1158 (UK), Apr 1973/S CBS 1158 (UK), 1980s:

HOFWoman.jpg (20755 bytes)
CBS 1158 (UK) - front scan by Hans Seegers (1973 release)

R-0434    I Want You - at 3:10 slightly longer than stereo album version

Just Like A Woman here is the full album version at 4:52! This rare release had plain orange CBS labels and came with a picture sleeve. Later releases of this "Hall Of Fame Hits" single had orange/yellow CBS labels and generic sleeves (see below). On all labels the name of producer Bob Johnston was misspelled as "Johnson". Larry Crum has a copy of this single with the yellow/red labels and states that this appears to be the same as the original stereo version from the 1966 Blonde On Blonde LPs, although it plays noticeably slower, which may account for the extra length.

Even though this single had the same A- and B-sides as the mono US release above, the versions of the songs were both different!

For locations of other "Hall Of Fame" singles: those containing rarities, those in mono, and those in stereo, see "Hall Of Fame".

George Harrison - "Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth)"/"Miss O'Dell" - 7" stereo EMI singles (UK/France/Spain/Ireland/Australia), May 1973:


Apple R 5988 (UK) - front scan by Wim van der Mark

R-0281 Miss O'Dell (George Harrison) - Bob is rumoured to be the harmonica player on this B-side, although there is no corroborating evidence

If the harmonica solo is Bob's, it was possibly recorded at George's home in Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, in early 1973. There is nothing in Clinton Heylin's "Day By Day" book mentioning a visit by Bob to England in this period.

The reverse of the French sleeve is plain black apart from the words "PATHE MARCONI EMI" and "Made in France" on the bottom and right edges.

Thanks to Éamonn Ó Catháin for information about the Irish Parlophone single, which does not have a picture sleeve. Thanks to Kenneth Robson for scans of his copy of the UK single, which does not have the UK picture sleeve shown but comes in a generic black Apple sleeve. Thanks to Stuart Moore for the scan of the Australian single, which also comes in a generic sleeve. Thanks to Manuel Garcia Jara for scans of the Spanish single, where the B-side title is translated as "Señorita O'Dell".

The A-side of the single comes from George's album Living In The Material World, which was reissued by Apple Records in 2006 with Miss O'Dell as a bonus track (both this B-side and an alternate take on which Bob may or may not play), see 2006. The harmonica player on Miss O'Dell is not credited.


"Pat Garrett & Billy The Kid Original Soundtrack" - vinyl album, Columbia KC 32460 (Canada), 13 Jul 1973:

Thanks to Lars M. Banke and Keith Venturoni for the information that the Canadian release of this LP (Columbia KC 32460) has the order of Billy 4 and Billy 7 reversed on the record itself but not on the sleeve or the label. However, the Canadian release does not have reverse stereo as previously reported, so it's no longer classed as a rarity.

Sony Records SRCS 6163 (Japan) - CD front insert scan by Ian Stewart (no tracklisting at bottom right)

This album (nicknamed "Columbia's Revenge") was issued by Columbia without Bob's authorisation during the period when Bob was with Asylum/Island, and consists entirely of covers, out-takes from Self Portrait and New Morning. It has never been issued on CD in the USA or UK, although CD versions were released in Japan in 1990 and mainland Europe in 1991 (now deleted). A cassette version was still available in the USA until the early 2000s. CD copies of this album command a very high price, despite the perceived poor quality of its material. Lars M Banke has copies bought in Sweden of both the US and Canadian releases, with "CBS" stickers covering the "Columbia logos on the sleeve and labels.

The CD release of this 1973 album was renamed Bob Dylan (A Fool Such As I) in Europe, but remained Dylan in Japan.

This deleted album was surprisingly included for download with the Aug 2006 iTunes Bob Dylan Collection, see Online Performances (Other).

All of these tracks except Spanish Is The Loving Tongue (R-0096) can be listened to on bobdylan.com

R-0100 Can't Help Falling In Love (H. Peretti/L. Creatore/Donna Weiss) - New Morning out-take, recorded Columbia Studios, New York, 3 Jun 1970, this track was reportedly also the A-side of a South Korean single, see Questionable Releases

R-0104 The Ballad of Ira Hayes (Peter La Farge) - New Morning out-take, recorded Columbia Studios, New York, 1 Jun 1970
Ira Hayes, a Pima Indian from Arizona, was one of the six US Marines photographed by Joe Rosenthal on 23 Feb 1945 in the iconic World War 2 photograph "Raising The Flag On Iwo Jima" (see ). After the war he succumbed to alcoholism and died in 1954. His story is told in the 2006 Clint Eastwood film "Flags Of Our Fathers", where he is played by Adam Beach. (He's previously been portrayed in films by Lee Marvin and Tony Curtis!). Bob's recording of this song by Peter La Farge, himself a Native American, is a highlight of this album. According to Ian Woodward R-0104 was scheduled to be included in a tribute album to Peter La Farge to be released in 2007.

R-0099 A Fool Such As I (Bill Trader) - Self Portrait out-take recorded at Columbia Studios, Nashville, TN, 26 Apr 1969
This is the stereo version, a mono version (presumably a reduction from stereo) was released on Columbia 7" singles (R-0099M, see 1974) This song was written by Bill Trader, but occurs frequently on releases of this album and Columbia singles wrongly credited to "B. Abner" (Buford Abner) - see authorship note here!

R-0096 Spanish Is The Loving Tongue (Charles Badger Clark/Billy Simon) - lyrics on bobdylan.com , band version with backing singers, Self Portrait out-take recorded at Columbia Studios, Nashville, TN, 24 Apr 1969, not the solo version R-0072 (stereo)/R-0072M (mono) released in 1971 as a single B-side, which was a 1970 New Morning out-take. R-0072(M) has three verses, this version omits the second one of those.

Bob Dylan/Miles Davis - "Educational Filmstrip Soundtrack" - 7" single (mono/stereo?), Keyboard Publications/Columbia Records #73-6771 (USA), 1973:

filmstrip1973.jpg (21221 bytes)
Columbia Records #73-6771 (USA) - picture from eBay
R-0646 Bob Dylan biography including excerpts of songs, also with cues for changing film slides.
The programme is about 5 mins long, with song excerpts of Alberta from Self Portrait, Freight Train Blues from Bob Dylan and the cover version of Mr. Tambourine Man by The Byrds

The other side of the record is a similar biography of Miles Davis. This single is claimed to be extremely rare, but is presumably most valuable if included as part of the complete original pack with both filmstrips and any other class material that came with them.

Thanks to Keith Venturoni for finding this on eBay and to Tim Dunn for finding the item in the Bob Dylan copyright records.
