 BOB DYLAN TELL TALE SIGNS (DELUXE) January 6, 2009
Gave to my BIL for Christmas -- he's a big Dylan fan and seemed thrilled with this deluxe set. Great price at AMAZON too -- more than $50 less than the next best Online store.
Volume Eight from the Eighth Wonder of sorts ... January 6, 2009
Twenty two years back I bought the Biograph series which simply blew my mind; living in Calcutta, getting an LP was difficult - although there were these little stores on Free School Street that sold used records of everything we liked - Stones, Beatles, Floyd, Who, Young, Zep and other Gods of Rock & Roll. Crowning glory of ones listening repertoire were Dylan & Cohen - an easy way to be regarded an elite listener of sorts. The prices however were astronomical (250 rupees per record - which was a lot of money). So we shared records among friends - I had the Biograph series on tape without the regular inserts - I believe they were pirated. We took particular note that more than half of the songs on Biograph were not available elsewhere; Biograph was a testimony to Dylan's recording talent - without repetition of any kind.
Twenty years & six bootleg series later we all know there is probably another eight CD worth of quality recording that can be unearthed (including expansive Basement Tapes, live circa Before the Flood, Toronto live recordings circa the born again time, the classic electric era of the white hot noise and God knows what else.
This collection is spectacular and in some ways gives the feel of a more consistent studio record as opposed to a group of songs spanning some seventeen years. With Oh Mercy in 1989, and the resurrection that followed, it is perhaps not a surprise that there are many outtakes that are worthy of a regular official release for any lesser artist. Who knew growing old for Mr. Dylan could be so much fun for us?
I wonder if Columbia would release a record of just one song (Mississippi comes to mind) just to show that how each reading can sound so engrossing & can be so different from the other - and to prove a point that I have been saying for years - genius never repeats - a repeater of the same stuff day after day is a performer - not an artist.
With me getting no younger anymore, and the world the strange abode of tastelessness that it is today, I am ecstatic to own this collection - to be savoured, like good wine, in moderation and over many years. And I hope that there is more to come.
Thanks Bobby, this one's from Free School Street!
better than the originals December 27, 2008
only bob dylan could surpass his own established work from previous albums his versions of "everything's broken", not to mention a wonderful rendition of "dignity", just dylan and his piano, a five star pouring out of a old civil rights anthem "Ring them Bells" tops off "Tell Tale Signs"....
Better With Time December 25, 2008
Excellent mix of old and new, rock his new "easy" style. Honoring his roots and doing his own thing. He keeps breaking ground regardless of the critics just as in Newport & Nashville. Still the man - alias.
This series is killing my disk space December 24, 2008
I am quickly filling up my 30 GB MP3 player with Dylan's Bootleg Series CDs. Seriosuly, these are a gerat addition to any Dylan fan's collection. I only wish more artists would follow his lead (hear me Springsteen?) and break open their archives. The collections are priceless - more...more...more!!!
