Comment
All songs written by Bob Dylan except :

'Baby Let Me Follow You Down' by Eric von Schmidt, and
'God Save the Queen' (which is Britain's national anthem).

Notes: An extracted review from THE FAMOUS ETIQUETTE BOOK...

(Crazy Joe) : And it came to pass that Dylan raised his axe and let
forth a mighty chord that rent the very foundation of the earth. And
truly it was ground breaking stuff, and many that were to follow tilled
the earth that he had broken, and many and varied were the fruits of
their labour, but Dylan was the first to plough that land and make
fertile the barren rock and bring forth the ghost of electricity.

So beganneth the infamous 1966 "world tour", and this 8 CD box set,
containing all of the unreleased circulating soundboard recordings
from the tour, is the equivalent of an illuminated manuscript
documenting the event...

All shows/recordings found in this set use the best available sources. An
explanatory breakdown of the source information follows:

- Sydney Stadium, Sydney, Australia - 13 April 1966
sourced from the original reel-to-reels to CD-R and superior
to any versions previously circulating, with more punch and
dynamics, and a brighter, fuller sound
- Festival Hall, Melbourne, Australia, 20 April 1966
remastered from the long gone, original Wanted Man release
WM-023, acknowledged as the finest-quality source recording
- Adelaide, Australia, 22 April/Edinburgh, Scotland, 20 May 1966
also remastered from original Wanted Man release WM-023
- Adelphi Theatre, Dublin, Ireland, 5 May 1966
Nagra reel-reel source....superior to previously acknowledged
best-quality Dublin found on the 1989 Italian Bulldog release
- KB Hallen Hall, Copenhagen, Denmark, 1 May 1966
from Don Pennebaker's documentary film, EAT THE DOCUMENT
- ABC Theater, Edinburgh, Scotland, 20 May 1966
1st-generation dub from reel-reel of the WNEW-FM, NYC, broadcast
(dating from the early 70's...)
- Odeon Theatre, Liverpool, England, 14 May 1966
Nagra recording......incredible sound and performance
- Hotel Room, Glasgow, Scotland, 19 May 1966
also from Don Pennebaker's documentary film, EAT THE DOCUMENT
- Gaumont Theatre, Sheffield, England, 16 May 1966
(acoustic) 3-track master tape...easily the finest quality of
circulating acoustic shows (incl/Manchester) and a haunting,
otherwordly performance.
(electric) Nagra reel-reel source
- Odeon Theatre, Birmingham, England, 12 May 1966
Nagra reel-reel source
- Free Trade Hall, Manchester, England, 17 May 1966
different feel from either GUITARS KISSING & THE CONTEMPORARY
FIX or THE BOOTLEG SERIES VOLUME 4 (RAH); acetate source
- Royal Albert Hall, London, England, 26 May 1966
from 1st-generation Gelston acetate dub/remastered; there are a
couple of drop-outs (in 'She Belongs to Me' and at the beginning
of 'Just Like A Woman'), and this does stll include acetate
noise (assorted pops and clicks) - other than that, easily
superior to the classic (and hard-to-find!) BEFORE THE CRASH
- Royal Albert Hall, London, England, 27 May 1966
also from 1st-generation Gelston acetate dub/remastered; again,
this is cleaner, smoother and quieter than BEFORE THE CRASH
- WBAI-FM Radio Show with Bob Faas, New York, NY, 19 January 1966
A Midwinter's Night's Scene, with Dylan being interviewed and
taking calls...entertaining and amusing

An impressive collection (yes, that's a severe understatement!). A bit of
information about the artwork; since SHN copies don't include '2 booklets
postcards & poster,' I've modified the gold-embossed sticker on the front
using Scorpio's new 'GBS' version of the CBS logo.
