These early copies (which may have no artwork and be on CD-Rs) are rarities - scans required! Later promo copies of the set and the commercial release omit the stage announcement.

Thanks to Harold Lepidus for the information and Jens Winter for the scan of a later version with artwork but without the stage announcement.

This album was produced exclusively by the Sony Music Custom Marketing Group for the lingerie manufacturer Victoria's Secret. Not was Bob's song Love Sick used in their US TV ads, but also Bob himself appeared in the Apr 2004 ad with Brazilian supermodel Adriana Lima in scenes shot in Venice, Italy! The three pictures used in the artwork are previously unpublished - the one on the inside of the front insert shows Bob playing piano on stage in 2003. The Limited Edition CD could be purchased for $10 with a Victoria's Secret purchase, in any store, by phone or on their web-site, up to 11 Apr 2004. Note that "Lovesick" in the album title is one word.

R-0658 Love Sick - exclusive remix, slightly longer than Time Out Of Mind version
This track was one of the 42 rarities included for download with the Aug 2006 Apple iTunes Bob Dylan Collection, see Online Performances (Other).

R-0299 Things Have Changed from the Wonder Boys soundtrack album as well as Columbia compilations and singles, lyrics on bobdylan.com
Now no longer a rarity since it is included in The Essential Bob Dylan (2000) on the bobdylan.com albums page.

Tracklisting:

1. She Belongs To Me

2. Don't Think Twice, It's Alright

3. To Ramona

4. Boots Of Spanish Leather

5. It's All Over Now, Baby Blue

6. Love Sick (remix) (R-0658)

7. Make You Feel My Love

8. Things Have Changed (R-0299)

9. Sugar Baby

The remix of Love Sick has a much cleaner sound than on the original Time Out Of Mind album, and it's possible it comes from the as yet unreleased remixed/remastered album that was scheduled to be included as one of the 15 Dylan albums released on hybrid SA-CD in Sep 2003, see International Albums (Regular). I'm told by Sonny Boy McFitzson that Make You Feel My Love is also possibly a remix, with the vocals and piano stronger than on the original on Time Out Of Mind, so may be from the same source.

There is a folded front insert, inside which is a folded leaflet advertising the latest Bootleg Series Vol. 6: Live 1964 release and other Dylan albums. The pictures below are of two sheets of artwork prior to being cut up for use in the CDs, offered for auction on eBay.

Thanks to Dag Braathen and Keith Venturoni for finding this item and to Ian Woodward for further information. Thanks especially to Jim and Gail Paboucek for the CD.

This is a "Best Of" compilation from a series of "New Woman" compilations of songs by (mostly) female artists that started in 1999. This implies that R-0359 appeared previously on a "New Woman" CD, but I can't find it (several of the albums have other songs by Gabrielle).

For the original single and album by Gabrielle, see 2000.

For details of the original album, see 1962.

For more information about the album, here is the link to its web-site .

Thanks to David Plentus for the information that this set was released by Silverline in the USA on 25 Jan 2005 in a "DualDisc" format - this is a double-sided disc with a CD layer on one side and a DVD layer on the other. The DVD layer includes the album in 5.1 surround sound plus videos for Subterranean Homesick Blues and "making the album", and additional content. However, this "Dual Disk" release has completely different mixes of the tracks and does not contain either R-0664 or R-0665.

R-0683 Went To See The Gypsy - unreleased demo version of track from New Morning, with Bob on piano

R-0682 Mutineer (Warren Zevon) - live, Red Bluff, CA, 7 Oct 2002

On the insert for this album this performance is identified as "live in Australia", which is incorrect as Bob has never performed this song in Australia! There was speculation it was the live performance of Mutineer from the University of California, Berkeley, CA, 11 Oct 2002, that was up on bobdylan.com that month, see Online Performances (bobdylan.com), but it's now confirmed it comes from Red Bluff, CA, 7 Oct 2002.

Bob's son Jakob Dylan and the Wallflowers perform Lawyers, Guns And Money, a song also performed live by Bob in 2002.

Thanks to Jim Paboucek, Michael G Smith, Hervé from France, Jack from Canada and Moise Potié for information and scans.

R-0686 Desolation Row - live as R-0685

These two single-sided acetates were found by Annie West in Oct 2004. One is from Sheffield, 16 May 1966, and contains It's All Over Now, Baby Blue and Desolation Row, otherwise officially unreleased. The second is from Manchester, 17 May 1966. She says: "I'm in Sligo Ireland by the way, and the story of the acetates is that they came from Bob Johnson when he was here producing an album for the Waterboys. he gave them away (after trying to sell them) and they ended up in my house where I found them at the very bottom of a box full of albums for throwing out!"

Thanks to Arie de Reus for the information that Acetate 4 has One Too Many Mornings (final part), Ballad Of A Thin Man; Like A Rolling Stone.

For the long-awaited release of the Manchester 1966 concert in 1998 as The Bootleg Series Vol. 4: Bob Dylan Live 1966 - The "Royal Albert Hall" Concert, see  International Albums (Regular).
