Guess you will all be thrilled about this:
A 36-CD box set featuring every known recording of Bob Dylan’s historic 1966 concert tour will be released Nov. 11, providing a companion piece to last year’s ambitious set documenting his studio recordings from 1965 and 1966.
“Bob Dylan: The 1966 Live Recordings” will feature songs taken from soundboard tapes, mobile recording trucks and audience tapes, according to an announcement Tuesday from Columbia Records and Legacy Recordings.
“While doing the archival research for ‘The Cutting Edge 1965-1966: The Bootleg Series Vol. 12,’ last year’s box set of Dylan’ mid-’60s studio sessions, we were continually struck by how great his 1966 live recordings really are,” Legacy Recordings President Adam Block said in a statement.
“The intensity of Bob’s live performances and his fantastic delivery of these songs in concert add another insightful component in understanding and appreciating the musical revolution Bob Dylan ignited some 50 years ago.”
