It is the intent to gather together all released, or partially available tracks from various artists' projects on which Dylan appears. Each CD of the series is limited to only 500 copies. Each copy is stamped with its' individual number. bobsboots.com takes a dim view of pirate material, however. While the offering is for the Dylan fan who doesn't want to have to purchase 9 or 10 different CDs that may only contain very minimal Dylan content, still, the artist offering this material to the public should not have to suffer the potential lost sale that this CD represents. On the other hand, this eclectic collection is from rather obscure recordings. One might find it most difficult to obtain official recordings. For that reason alone we include this as a boot item. The one thing that this set has going for it (other than the perfect quality, of course) is the beautiful package, with unique photos and a full color photo CD. Of course, the tracks that Dylan sing are the highlights. The other stand outs are the Spivey sessions, Ramblin' Jack, Geoff Muldaur © 2000 CD Pinkerton - bobsboots.com |
