Columbia/Legacy A 96016 (USA) - inside of unfolded digipak (my copy), the booklet is in the pocket on the left hand side, under the CD tray is a picture of a Starbucks coffee cup

Thanks to Ian Woodward for the tracklisting and scans of a promo CD-R copy called "Gaslight Lounge - 1962" in a clear plastic wallet with a white paper insert.

Thanks to Jim Paboucek for scans and especially to Tim Dunn for the copy of the album. Thanks to Bernard Reynaert from Belgium for in formation that a European version of this album exists! He says: "The Live at the Gaslight 1962 CD is now available for a limited time in Belgium through "Humo", a popular weekly magazine. It can be acquired in exchange of a voucher which was in today’s edition (4 Oct 2005) plus 12 Euros only in the “Standaard Boekhandel” (Boekhandel = bookstore) chain stores. I bought my copy in Brussels. The catalogue number of the CD (also a digipak) is COL 82876728622 and is housed in a exclusive brown slipcase which says “Humo presenteert Bob Dylan Live at the Gaslight 1962” (“Humo presents…). There is also a booklet (same as the US release I suppose) but the FBI warning is missing of course. The disc is “Made in the EU” which is on the label."

Hans Seegers confirms the disc is made in Austria for distribution in Belgium only at this time. The voucher was also included with the 11 Oct 2005 issue of "Humo". The magazine is on sale throughout the Flemish-speaking part of Belgium. but the vouchers are redeemable only at Standaard Boekhandel stores. Jean-Pol Hiernaux adds that the the Belgian release uses much better quality paper for both the digipak and the booklet than the US release - this is in contrast to the US and European releases of The Bootleg Series Vol. 7: No Direction Home, where the US booklet is printed on considerably better paper, and needs a wider slipcase as a result!

Keith Venturoni says: "After track 3, they insert the intro for Dylan at Newport '65 just before track 4 to make it sound as if that intro leads into that outtake". Thanks to Jean-Pol Hiernaux for the information that this is because the track She Belongs To Me is exactly as on The Bootleg Series Vol. 7 - No Direction Home - it has the intro to Maggie's Farm at Newport on the end of the track instead of at the start of Maggie's Farm!

R-0728 Masters Of War - live, New York Town Hall, 12 Apr 1963 (5:21), extended version of track from The Bootleg Series Vol. 7: No Direction Home (4:43)
Jean-Pol Hiernaux says this extended version has a slightly longer introduction and more applause at the end.

R-0729 Highway 61 Revisited banter, Columbia Studios, New York, 2 Aug 1965
Again, Jean-Pol Hiernax describes this as two false starts and a rehearsal with the famous police siren.

R-0730 Stuck Inside Of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again (5:08), edited version of track from The Bootleg Series Vol. 7: No Direction Home (5:44)
Thanks to Jean-Pol Hiernax for the information that verse 5 is cut, although the last verse is kept.

R-0731 Highway 61 Revisited intro, Columbia Studios, New York, Aug 1965

Thanks to Jean-Pol Hiernaux, Åsa Källén-Lindh, Ian Woodward, Keith Venturoni and Hans Seegers for information. Thanks also to Hans Seegers for scans (a huge improvement on the eBay photographs!).

This album uses a pastiche of the cover of the cancelled US Columbia Bob Dylan In Concert album, including the "STEREO"/arrows logo, see 1964. Thanks to Bob Stacy for pointing out that this is a slightly different photograph from the one due to be used in 1964, both taken by Don Hunstein. Thanks to Jean-Pierre Mercier and Franck Faugere for details of the European release, Columbia SAMPCM 15009 2. This was initially available only in France, at stores like Virgin with purchases of No Direction Home: The Soundtrack - The Bootleg Series Vol. 7, but Tim Hayter tells me it is now available at Virgin stores in the UK with any two Dylan CDs.

All tracks were recorded live at Carnegie Hall,  New York, 26 Oct 1963.

R-0709    The Times They Are A-Changin' - previously unreleased and uncirculating

R-0710    Ballad Of Hollis Brown - previously unreleased and uncirculating
This track also appears on Serve 2, a charity album released in Nov 2007 to benefit World Hunger Year, see 2007.

R-0711    Boots Of Spanish Leather - previously unreleased and uncirculating

R-0370-3 Lay Down Your Weary Tune - included on the unreleased US Columbia Bob Dylan In Concert album, see 1964, and also appeared on the "Goldmine" acetates, see 1980, and released on bobdylan.com (BDC5, see Online Performances (bobdylan.com) )

R-0712    North Country Blues - previously unreleased and uncirculating

R-0713    With God On Our Side - previously unreleased and uncirculating

These six tracks are also part of the 42 rarities included for download with the Aug 2006 Apple iTunes Bob Dylan Collection, see Online Performances (Other).

Thanks to Gil Lamont, Neil Burling, Jean-Pierre Mercier and Nol Grint for information and scans and especially to Tim Dunn for the copy of the US album. Thanks to Hans Seegers for information and scan of the "long box" release of The Best Of Bob Dylan, which includes this as a bonus CD.

CD1:

R-0650 Tell Me, Momma - recorded live with The Hawks at the Odeon Theatre, Liverpool, England, 14 May 1966, previously unreleased

R-0054-9 Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues - recorded live with the Hawks at The Odeon Theatre, Liverpool, England, 14 May 1966, B-side of US 7" single I Want You, (see 1966)
This live version, never released on a regular Columbia album, is also on the Japanese promo LP Mr. D's Collection #1 (see 1974), the Japanese promo EP Mr. D's Collection #2 (see 1977), the 1978 Australian set Masterpieces (see 1978), and the Japanese Mr. D's Collection #3 promo CD (see 1993). All versions are as far as I know still in mono as originally recorded. Sadly, it does not appear on the B-side of a withdrawn CBS Spanish EP (see 1972), because the record was mispressed with It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry from Highway 61 Revisited instead!

This CD also contains Can You Please Crawl Out Your Window? - single version, again in mono, but indicated so here; Odds And Ends from The Basement Tapes.

CD2:

R-0064-4 I Ain't Got No Home - recorded live with The Band at the Tribute to Woody Guthrie, Carnegie Hall, New York, 20 Jan 1968 (afternoon show), from the Tribute to Woody Guthrie Part 1 album  (see 1972)
This performance also appears on the Japanese Mr. D's Collection #3 promo CD (see 1993).

This CD also contains Don't Ya Tell Henry plus several other songs from The Basement Tapes featuring The Band alone. Thanks to Jean-Pol Hiernaux for pointing out that the version of Long Distance Operator (4:32) is listed as previously unreleased and recorded at Goldstar Studios, Los Angeles, CA, 21 Feb 1968. The so-called Basement Tapes version is 3:40, but the new performance is in fact the same recording with an edited verse restored. (It is actually well known that not all the Band tracks included on The Basement Tapes album were the versions that were actually recorded there!)

CD5:

R-0651 Highway 61 Revisited - recorded live with The Band at Madison Square Garden, New York, 31 Jan 1974 (evening show), previously unreleased

This CD also contains Forever Young (slow version) from Planet Waves; Rainy Day Women #12 & 35, live from The Forum, Inglewood, CA, 13 Feb 1974, from Before The Flood.

Capitol/EMI 72435-71879-0-9 (Europe) - CD5 with R-0651

R-0651-2 Highway 61 Revisited - recorded live with The Band at Madison Square Garden, New York, 31 Jan 1974 (evening show)

Thanks to Jack from Canada for information and scans.

For details of the original album, see 1962.

Thanks to Hans Seegers for the catalogue number.

Speculation at first was that this was the uncirculating out-take from Self Portrait recorded at Columbia Studios, New York, 4 Mar 1970. Clinton Heylin lists it as "Tell Old Bill", while Michael Krogsgaard lists it as "This Evening So Soon" as written on the studio session recording sheet. However, R-0649 is in fact a new recording, made earlier this year with musicians including Elana Fremerman on violin. Thanks to Tim Dunn and Michael Mets for the information that the song is credited to "Bob Dylan" and is not the same as the traditional song, although we've never heard Bob's 1970 version.

The North Country soundtrack album also includes Lay, Lady, Lay from Nashville Skyline, Do Right To Me Baby (Do Unto Others) from Slow Train Coming, and Sweetheart Like You from Infidels. There are also covers of Girl From The North Country by Leo Kottke and Paths Of Victory by Cat Power. Paul S. Levine thinks that Lay, Lady, Lay and Sweetheart Like You are remixes, but my ears can't hear any significant differences from the tracks released in the 2003 series of hybrid SACDs. There is a pale blue information sticker with white text on the outside of the jewel case. The front insert is a single sheet with three folds. The CD tray is clear to show the picture on the reverse of the rear insert.

Thanks to David Plentus, Ole Lien, Gino Galvez and Gil Walker for information about this release.

Thanks to Hervé from France for the photo of a Japanese promo CD - it is in a standard jewel case with no inserts. The title is in Japanese but the song titles are in English.

This set comes in a box with a 40-page stapled booklet with several pictures of Bob, some of which were used for the cover of Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits Vol. 2 in Nov 1971, see International Albums (Regular). All tracks recorded live with George Harrison, Leon Russell and Ringo Starr, Madison Square Garden, New York, 1 Aug 1971 (evening show). For information on VHS video and DVD releases of the feature film, omitting Mr. Tambourine Man (R-0078), see VHS & DVD 1970s. For the expanded edition released in the USA and UK on 24 Oct 2005, which includes new Dylan material, see VHS & DVD 2000s Part 3.

R-0075-4 A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall
This performance also appeared on a 1983 compilation from Columbia Brazil, The Legend, see 1983.

R-0076-4 It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry
This performance also appeared on a 1995 Westwood One US radio station broadcast about Dylan and the Beatles, see 1995.
