TEN LP BOX HOLY GRAIL COLLECTIBLE 134 RARE TRACKS BOB DYLAN TEN OF SWORDS TARANTULA RECORDS - CL 16319 The BIG one ...
TOP sought BOB DYLAN holy grail rarity ....
Super RARE ...
limited edition mammoth TEN-LP BOX set with a lifetimes worth of scarce tracks during Dylans most prolific creative period - 1961 - 1966 ...
an absolute investment item that is pretty much guaranteed to comntinue to spiral in value ...check it out::: ALL contents spanning 1961-1966.
The front cover says: The only definitive collection 10 record set over 8 hours of music.
134 previously Unreleased tracks This set has yet to be bettered in sound quality, even by some of the CDs that contain the same material.
The cover on this great near 30 year old box set is simple but effective.
A grainy looking black and white shot of Bob with all of the songs listed on the front.
The Label is Tarantula.
The folks behind the Label were the best in the business.
They released only the highest quality pieces in fantastic major label quality covers.
Called Zimmerman: and absolutely No kin to earlier bootlegs, with their coffee- grinder production values, the high-grade, handsomely packaged renegade clearly comes from first-rate tapes.
The extremely hard-to-find limited edition collection - whose title comes from the tarot card symbolizing trouble in spite of riches and high position, and from Dylan s original name, Robert Allen Zimmerman - bills itself as the only definitive collection of unreleased material from that startling period when the young Dylan roared through the conventions of pop music like a runaway engine.
Three sides of material from what have become known as the Minnesota Hotel Tapes.
Taped in a Minneapolis home in December 1961, the recordings offer a 20-year-old Dylan whooping, growling and hollering through 25 traditional songs such as Man of Constant Sorrow, Candy Man and Baby, Please Don t Go.
Ten outtakes from Dylan s first album, Bob Dylan, recorded in November 1961.
These songs were discarded from the album - and a good thing, too.
Few are up to Dylan s standards.
Nine songs from a demo Dylan made in 1961 or 1962 for the Leeds Music publishing company.
These include a rare version of He Was a Friend of Mine, later a minor hit for The Byrds.
Seven outtakes from 1962 s The Freewheelin Bob Dylan.
These tracks include four fine songs that were included on early versions of the singer s first album of original material and were then withdrawn: Let Me Die in My Footsteps, Talking John Birch Paranoid Blues, Rocks and Gravel and Ramblin Gamblin Willie.
Sixteen songs from a 1962 demo tape for the Witmark Publishing Co., including rough cuts of Tomorrow Is a Long Time and, on piano, When the Ship Comes In and The Times They Are A-Changin .
Seventeen tracks from an intimate 1962 concert at the Gaslight Cafe in Greenwich Village, including a chilling, never-released Moonshine Blues and the stirring sing-along A Hard Rain s Gonna Fall.
Five cuts from 1963 concerts at New York s Town Hall and Carnegie Hall, including the anti-boxing anthem Who Killed Davey Moore? Dusty Old Fairgrounds and Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie, an eight-minute recited poem.
Seven outtakes from 1963 s The Times They Are A-Changin , including the hypnotic Percy s Song and an unreleased would-be protest anthem, Paths of Victory.
Eight discards from Another Side of Bob Dylan, culled from an astonishing 1964 session in which Dylan recorded 20 songs in one day.
I ll Keep It With Mine became a Fairport Convention hit Lay Down Your Weary Tune is only now being heard, via Biograph.
From Bringing It All Back Home, recorded in January 1965 - melodic, somewhat hesitant first takes of four trademark songs including It s All Over Now, Baby Blue.
Seven outtakes from Highway 61, taped in July 1965 - the first drafts of a rock landmark.
Three songs and three snippets from a 1965 studio session with The Band.
Included are a superb Visions of Johanna and an explosive example of mid- 60s vitriol, She s Your Lover Now neither was released.
Eight in-concert songs as Dylan and The Band went electric at Royal Albert Hall in 1966.
The performance, which Dylan s folkie audience booed, was taped for a possible album and culminated in a brutal Like a Rolling Stone.
Brash, dangerous, aggressive, triumphant and still thrilling.
