This page is part of a list of original releases by release date of international commercially-released multi-packs of regular stereo Dylan albums. These are listed here to save multiple entries on each album page. 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.

These pages are still incomplete - 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!

Seizing a marketing opportunity presented by the issue of the "Q" magazine supplement "Q Dylan" in Sept 2000, Columbia UK released three volumes in this series, each comprising three regular Dylan albums in their normal packaging inside a unique slipcase reproducing the text of the "Q" 5 Star reviews on the back cover. The albums were not remastered. The volumes, each costing £24.99 at the time of release, are:

Vol. 1: The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, Bringing It All Back Home and Highway 61 Revisited

Vol. 2: Blonde On Blonde, Blood On The Tracks and The Basement Tapes (with The Band)
Thanks to Éamonn Ó Catháin for the information that the version of Blonde On Blonde in this pack (Columbia CDCBS 22130) is the "short" version (71:29) with some tracks truncated. For more information, see Blonde On Blonde Rarities.

Photo of all four sets by Hervé from France
The four sets shown each come in a slipcase with 3CDs. The albums included are illustrated on the cover on the right hand side of each slipcase. The sets are made in Austria for distribution in Europe. France has different releases, see below.

Columbia 509 639-2 (Austria for Europe) - picture from eil.com

Columbia 509636-2 - The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan (CD 32390), The Times They Are A-Changin' (CD 32021), Another Side Of Bob Dylan (CD 32034)

Columbia 509637-2 - Bringing It All Back Home (CD 32344) note the title is not Subterranean Homesick Blues!, Highway 61 Revisited (CD 460953-2), Blonde On Blonde (CD 463369-2)

Columbia 509638-2 - Blood On The Tracks (467842-2), Desire (CD 32570), Street-Legal (COL 494788-2, this is the remastered release)

Columbia 509639-2 - Infidels (460727-2), Oh Mercy (465800-2), Time Out Of Mind (486936-2)

In all cases the CDs and album covers would appear to be the current European versions (not the US CD cover where it differs). Éamonn Ó Catháin informs me he's seen a copy of the fourth set that clearly displays Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited and Blonde On Blonde on the spine!

Thanks to Hervé from France for the information and photo, and Hans Seegers for further information.


"3 CD Originaux [3 CD Originals]" - four 3CD sets, Sony Music (France), 2002:

This set contains Oh Mercy, Time Out Of Mind and "Love And Theft". I assume Oh Mercy is the 2004 remastered CD release (the CD layer of the 2003 hybrid SA-CD release). Time Out Of Mind has not yet been released in a remastered form and the CD layer of "Love And Theft" did not have to be remastered for the 2003 release. The US set is in a book-style digipak, the European release is in a box with the three albums in jewel cases.

The front cover picture appears to be unique to the set. The sticker is the same for both the US and European releases.

Thanks to Hans Seegers, Tim Dunn, David Plentus, Éamonn Ó Catháin and Jack from Canada for information about these sets. Thanks to Hans Seegers and Jack from Canada for scans.

"Bob Dylan Album Collection" - promo 14CD boxed set, Sony (no catalogue number) (Japan), 23 Sep 2003:


Dylan box - picture from hmv.co.jp
The fourteen remastered CDs (the CD layers of the hybrid SA-CD releases, see above) were released in Japan in "LP-style" packaging on 18 Aug 2004 and 23 Sep 2004. They are in card sleeves with reproductions of the original Japanese obis. The promo boxed set that holds all the albums is much smaller than the 2003 box because these are in card sleeves, not digipaks. To get the box you had to buy all the albums and then collect all fourteen black triangular price tokens from the right-hand bottom corner of the sticker on each album.

All the individual remastered titles have been added to the appropriate album page in this section.

Thanks to Yoshihiko Satake for information and to Hans Seegers for further information and scans.

Sony Music MHCP-369 (Japan) - front scan by Hans Seegers with top obi and sticker

Apparently if you bought seven albums from the remastered series from the Disc Union chain of record shops in Japan, you received the free box. The box shown has the cover of the US mono Highway 61 Revisited (Columbia CL 2389, see Mono Album Releases), another box was available with 10 CDs and the cover of The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, see below. Each of the individual albums in this set is illustrated on the appropriate page of International Album Releases.

This 2CD set in a slipcase contains John Wesley Harding and Nashville Skyline. It's unusual in that Nashville Skyline is the 2004 remastered release, Columbia 5123462000, but John Wesley Harding is the original Australian release, Columbia CDCBS 63252. For both, see International Albums (Regular).

Columbia 486936 2 (Australia) - inside scan by Stuart Moore (this release)

The Canadian 2CD set comes in a non-gatefold card sleeve with a pull-out card tray. The design is unusual in that the card tray can only be pulled part-way out to reveal the discs. (Stuart Sonshine informs me this is called a "sliderpack" and is used for all the North American "x2" releases.) The CDs themselves are unique in that they are orange instead of the original blue and green designs and both have the new catalogue number.

The Australian 2CD set has the two CDs in regular jewel cases inside a card slipcase. The discs are also of a new unique white design with red and black text and there are minor changes to the front and rear inserts.

Thanks to Jack from Canada and Stuart Moore for information and scans.

This set in a card slipcase contains Bob's last three studio albums at the time of release, Time Out of Mind, "Love And Theft" and Modern Times.

Thanks to Jean-Pol Hiernaux for information and to Stuart Moore for scans of the Australian release, which is unusual in that while Time Out of Mind and Modern Times are the standard Australian releases, "Love And Theft" is the European release. Thanks to Jack from Canada for scans of the Canadian release.

"The Bob Dylan 60s Collection" - 10CD boxed set, Columbia/Sony Music 88697 51773 2 (NL), 20 Apr 2009:


Columbia/Sony Music 88697 51773 2 (NL) - box front scan by Nol Grint
This set in card sleeves was manufactured by Sony Music in Austria for the Dutch newspaper "De Volkskrant" to mark Bob's Apr 2009 shows in Holland. Because it includes the limited edition CD Live At The Gaslight 1962, it is also listed in 2009. Live At The Gaslight 1962 was originally released in 2005.

The 1960s album missing from the box is Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits, 1967. The box also contains a 16-page booklet by Dutch author Martin Bril called "Een man uit de verte [A man from afar]". Sadly, Martin Bril died on 22 Apr 2009 from cancer.

Thanks to Nol Grint and Hans Seegers for information and scans.
