J-Card CommentNobody Sings Dylan Like Dylan, Volume 15: Odds and Ends - Various Artists With this volume, we conclude all the original music from KCRW's John Wesley Harding-hosted "Oh Merci" special--I've also included an interesting intro Don Was provided for the unreleased, "Under the Red Sky"-era song "Mr. Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore." These versions of the "Oh Merci" songs come from Brian in England, whose source was cleaner than the one posted a couple of weeks ago on Dime by Mark Persic (which also omitted the outtake "Mr. Alice" altogether). Again, big thanks to Brian, Mark and Michel for helping get this show back out there! Overall this week, we've got nine new songs not previously featured on NSD, and a dozen new artists. A few notes about some of the performers on this collection: Planxty features vocals by the great Christy Moore; the Performing Gibsons include ex-Fairporters Iain Matthews and Richard Thompson; the Fairport line-up here features Sandy Denny, in her final stint with the group; the Yardbirds line-up includes Jimmy Page; and the late Rainer Ptacek was a longtime member of Giant Sand. As usual, thanks to the tapers, the original uploaders, the folks who've sent me recordings, the fine artists who've created cover artwork, and especially the performers and composer. Due to the many different sources, I am not including lineages. I have done nothing to the original files but normalize the levels and fade in and out on each track (using Cool Edit). Please keep the suggestions and files coming--if you've got something good, please PM me. Lastly, someone out there sent me an MP3 of the Staples Singers doing "Hard Rain" and offered to send a lossless version--I've lost your contact info, but please do send it! Enjoy!
