Summary

In this episode of Dylan Revisited, I look back at very first volume of The Bootleg Series, the long-running collection of outtakes, live shows and other rare recordings from throughout Bob Dylan’s career. I explore the extraordinary number of songs that Bob Dylan wrote over a three-year period from 1961-63 but never officially released until The Bootleg Series finally gave us high-quality audio versions of so many early gems. Let’s revisit The Bootleg Series Vol. 1. Written, produced and performed by Colm Larkin. Theme music by Frank Harkin - check out his band Ha Ha Ha . All other music is used for the purposes of illustration and is intended as fair use. If you like this episode, please tell a friend or share it on social media.
