yeah, hmmm. the only mono version of those records i've heard is Blonde On Blonde, and it's good, but not essential or anything. can't imagine that the solo records would benefit from being in mono?

I wouldn't want to make any great claims for the mono versions against the new(ish) remastered CDs. I just think Sundazed do a wonderful LP and love owning/playing some of them.

Funnily, my CD of BoB is of the older variety, so the comparison with the mono vinyl is starker than with my other Dylan CDs

too bad they haven't unearthed anything unknown here, like a Dylan demo of "Love Is Just a 4-Letter Word" or something.

tylerw, Wednesday, 25 August 2010 15:19 (thirteen years ago) link

So when will they get round to the big version of the Basement tapes, or is that kinda unnecessary?

Mark G, Wednesday, 25 August 2010 15:28 (thirteen years ago) link

i'm sure it'll happen sooner or later -- i mean, it's no more unnecessary than this witmark demos thing, which has been floating around bootleg for decades now.

tylerw, Wednesday, 25 August 2010 15:29 (thirteen years ago) link

Well, it's one of those they're going to make one of those 'superdeluxe' album sets of, once again.

Blame Radiohead.

one year passes...

I don't think I ever really, really listened to "Royal Albert Hall" before tonight...this is incredibly intense, I want to change my vote.

where can i hear electric blind willie mctell?

Mordy, Sunday, 27 May 2012 01:47 (eleven years ago) link

"Moonshiner" is my single favorite Dylan performance, so I'd vote Vol. 1-3 for that alone.

Soundslike, Sunday, 27 May 2012 02:34 (eleven years ago) link

yeah that moonshiner is something else, otherworldly -- one of the ultimate "how did they not release this?" performances of the guy's career.
mordy, here is the electric blind willie
