Genuine Basement Tapes 4 source: Basement Tapes Tracks:  You Ain't Goin' Nowhere Bourbon Street All American Boy Wildwood Flower See That My Grave Is Kept Clean She'll Be Comin' Round The Mountain Flight Of the Bumblebee Confidential To Me I'm A Fool For You Next Time On The Highway The Big Flood Every Time I Come To Town See You Later Allen Ginsberg The Spanish Song I'm Your Teenage Prayer I'm In The Mood Belshazaar Bring It On Home The King Of France Review: Volume four of the unreleased basement tapes is not near the quality of the first couple of discs. Most likely the grounds for exclusion from any type of official release. The tracks here are an eclectic collection that run the gambit from somber to goofy. Throughout all, however, everyone seems to be lose and having a good time. A party atmosphere surrounds some of the tracks. Likely as not, "party favors" helped to influence the feel of some of the Basement recordings. © 2000 Craig Pinkerton Bobsboots.com Download covers for printing © 2000 Craig Pinkerton Bobsboots.com © 2000 Craig Pinkerton Bobsboots.com

When The Band released some of their own recordings from the basement entitled 'Music From Big Pink', They used this painting as the front cover of the LP. Years later, when the Dylan / Band release 'The Basement Tapes' saw the official light of day, this painting inspired the atmosphere of the photo session that would produce the LP cover for that release.  © 2000 Craig Pinkerton Bobsboots.com
