This page is part of a list of original releases by release
date of international commercially-released regular (normally) stereo Dylan albums. This album
is actually in mono, but it's included here because it has been added to the bobdylan.com albums 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. Promo
releases of regular albums are now listed here and no longer in the former yearly Promo sections.
Although this album is available in mono only, it's included here because it's
listed on the bobdylan.com albums page. |

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!

Thanks to Fred Muller for reminding me of the item in the "Isis" newsletter that
Bob Dylan could headline an event called “50th
Anniversary Bob Dylan Folk Festival”. Reported in “Brandeis Hoot” (Brandeis
University’s Community Newspaper) the event, the brainchild of student
organisers, would be held in the 2013 Spring semester to commemorate the 50th
anniversary of Dylan’s concert there on 10 May 1963. However, the same student
paper has now announced that Dylan’s booking price, nearly $300,000, would
hamper the net finances of the university. It seems the event will still go
ahead, but without Bob Dylan!

This very rare 180gm US LP test pressing of Brandeis University was
made for Columbia/Legacy by RTI (Record Technology Inc.). Side 1 has a
generic RTI label and is dated 29 Dec 2010 while the Side 2 label is plain
white, The record comes in a plain white sleeve without any text. It has
handwritten matrix numbers: Side 1 - 88697847431-A, opposite to
“19627.1(3)”, Side 2 - 88697847431-B, opposite to “19627.2(3)”, plus a small
“STERLING” stamp on both sides.

Columbia/Legacy 88697 84743 1 (USA) - spine photocopy by Paul Shenton
The USA vinyl release of the album comes in a clear plastic wallet with two
stickers, one similar to the CD sticker. The notes by Michael Gray are
included on the rear sleeve. There are two inserts, one with details of a
free MP3 download (code deleted), the other advertising The Bootleg Series Vol. 9 - The
Witmark Demos and The Original Mono
Recordings.
The record has labels re-producing an "audiosonic"
recording blank with matrix numbers:
Side 1 - 88697847431-A (written), "STERLING" (stamped), Side 2 -
88697847431-B (written), "STERLING" (stamped). The US record
labels have two horizontal lines separating the text, missing from the 2017
European labels below.
According to "Isis" newsletter 155½
this album has been released on mono vinyl in Europe as well as the USA
after all. Columbia have licensed the recording to Dutch company Music On
Vinyl, who produced European vinyl releases of the original mono recordings
in 2010. The album is the same as the US release, with different stickers
front and back. The copy shown is still sealed,
so I don't have scans of the record labels.
Dag Braathen and Paul Shenton have found
pirate copies with picture labels on white or blue vinyl. These are
definitely not official Columbia releases and are now listed
here with Questionable releases of
official Dylan albums.
Thanks to Gerd Rundel and Paul Shenton for
information and pictures.

This 7-track CD in a card
sleeve was given
away as a bonus disc with copies of The Bootleg Series Vol. 9 - The
Witmark Demos and the 9CD set The Original Mono
Recordings . All tracks were recorded live at the 1st Annual Folk
Festival, Brandeis University,
Waltham, MA, Friday 10 May 1963. The advance artwork showed a card
sleeve with spine text, which is the US design - the European and Australian card sleeves
have no spine text. It also omitted the text in red "1ST SET" and "2ND
SET", which is present on all three commercial releases shown. The CD itself has the design of a 1960s
"audiosonic" blank
(equivalent to a CD-R today). The European release has "Made in the EU" on
both the rear sleeve and the CD. The Australian release has "Distributed in
Australia by Sony Music Entertainment Australia Pty. Ltd." on both the rear
sleeve and the CD. The European and Australian releases have the Sony Music
logo, omitted from the US release. Thanks to Derek Barker of "Isis" magazine
for pointing out that Bob's set took place on Friday evening, 10 May
1963, not "SATURDAY EVENING" as on the back of the sleeve, and also that the
ticket price on the Brandeis poster they published in "Isis" 152 was $4.00,
not $4.40!
Thanks to "Isis" 152 for the
picture of the Brandeis
poster and the story of how this performance was discovered in the Ralph Gleason
archives by site contributor Jeff Gold, for more details see Jeff's blog here
.
Thanks to Steven Jump of Badlands and
Éamonn Ó Catháin
for the artwork, to Derek Barker of "Isis" and Arie de Reus for information and to
Moise Potié, Jeremy Mayle,
Stuart Moore and Bill Hester for scans.

12 Apr 2011. The 2010 disc came in a card sleeve, but the 2011 release is in a
jewel case and the front insert is an 8-page stapled booklet with notes by
Michael Gray, author of "Song & Dance Man III: The Art of Bob Dylan" and "The
Bob Dylan Encyclopaedia" (which contains a flattering entry about me and this
site). There are also several previously unreleased photographs in the booklet.
There is also a folded insert advertising The Bootleg Series Vol. 9
and The Original Mono Recordings.
