This incredible four CD volume examines the earliest known recording of an adolescent Robert Zimmerman, and then hopscotchs its way through some of the earliest, and least known Dylan recordings. Some of the early stuff is dismal at best (both in sound quality and content), but its historical importance cannot be overstated. These recordings represent true milestones in the life of Bob Dylan, and in the history of music. The package aesthetics are wonderful. The early photos are striking. Full track listing with venue information.
The earliest recordings on this CD are in poor quality, even when judged by period amateur equipment. However, the fact that no other copy exists, and the historical importance of the material, earns this set as a must have title. Keep in mind that it is not a must have for everyone. Most will find little entertainment value in the early tracks. This is for the historian, and those truly interested in a little documented slice of the history of music, and of the birth of a legend.
