"MASTERS (BobDylan.com)" 1CD (Wild Wolf)
13-track compilation sourced from pre-download masters
Tracks: 13
Time: 72+
Source: Masters
Quality: A+

A 13-track compilation culled from a master tape source as opposed to a website download. For comparison, A-B the "Tears of Rage" from "From the Vaults Vol 1" <http://www.expectingrain.com/dok/rmd/xyx/70/beneath74.html> with the version here - sounds like a totally different cut. Ditto the "Visions" from 1992 - funny how there is crowd noise on the "FTV" version that is non-existent on the version here. In any case, there are 5 performances common to both, yet the mixes make each seem different . Overall, the "Masters" versions (mixes) of these five seem more "true" and robust, with a smoother, fuller sound, with only the Visions from "FTV" gaining the edge on the "Masters" version, IMO.

Quality on the tracks here is superb, professionally recorded and mixed with equal juice to high and low, and smooth as a baby's ass. Great drum and bass sound, particularly Kemper, who sounds terrific.

Hopefully, more of these will surface but for now here's what we get:

Not Fade Away - Troy, NY 2/22/99 (50's rockabilly in the 90's, with that great "fat" guitar sound)
Man In The Long Black Coat - Tampa, Fl 1/30/99 (haunting)
To Be Alone With You - Troy, NY 2/22/99 (more 50's sound)
Never Gonna Be The Same Again - Tampa, Fl 1/30/99 (dead-on)
Don't Think Twice - Troy, NY 2/22/99 (a great one)
Visions of Johanna - Minneapolis, MN 9/3/92
Friend of the Devil - Nurnberg, Ger 5/31/98 (slick picking with Bucky standing out, sure to put a grin on your face)
Watching the River Flow - Tallahassee, FL 2/1/99 (Flashes of Carl Perkins and James Burton!!!!!!)
Make You Feel My Love - LosAngeles, CA 5/21/98 (Bob the crooner)
Tears of Rage - NY, NY 1/17/98 (breathtaking, w/great guitars)
Lovesick - NY, NY 2/25/98 (raunchy....best version, IMO)
Senor - Lucca, Italy 7/6/98 (Bucky shines)
I & I - Dijon, FR 7/1/98 (spooky sounding version w/snaky guitars)
