 Coulda Been Better Dec 22, 2008
purchased this CD based on the strength of his latest Bootleg Series #7&8 thinking it would be as good and was very disappointed. The fore mentioned was the best music I've purchased in years. This CD had much potential but just got aggravating after a while. Don't buy it, get 7&8 instead.
 Bob Dylan Bootleg Series Vol 1-3 1961-1991 Dec 16, 2008
a 3cd pack with booklet. The cds are great and the bookelet has notes on each of the songs and some photos that I haven't seen before. Really worthwhile
Simply, Wonderfully, Dylan Dec 10, 2008
Many people are nitpicking about sound / rehearsal quality. This is a BOOTLEG compilation, and it's absolutely marvelous. My father played these cassette tapes throughout my childhood, and it feels great to hear them all again. THE best songwriting, presented in the simplest (perfect) manner, by THE voice. Simply Golden, must buy.

 BD bootleg series 1-3 Jun 27, 2008
This is an absolutely incredible collection that anyone who even remotely likes Bob Dylan should own. I purchased it brand new and it came in wrapping, but it consistently skips on one song at the same place. I noticed slight gouges in the CD.

Some Surprisers for Even the Bootleggers Apr 10, 2008
This is the first of the Bob Dylan official Bootleg Series offered by CBS/Sony and it offers up a delicious set of recordings that any Dylan fan just has to love. Most of these songs have appeared on Bootlegs over the years, but not all of them. There are some gems here that must have been shockers to both Dylan fans and Dylan bootleggers alike, especially the hauntingly beautiful "Farewell Angelina" that Dylan gave to Joan Baez to record. Hearing Dylan do it himself is a pure pleasure. And the two closing songs, "When the Night Comes Falling from the Sky" and "Series of Dreams" are just outstanding. What a rock song, "When the Night Comes Falling from the Sky" is. Wow!
I particularly like the Infidels outtakes on disc three, from "Tell Me" through "Blind Willie McTell." But wait! There's more," the Alternate take of "Subterranean Homesick Blues," is just as good as the original and will have you singing the words right along with Dylan, if you still know 'em, that is. "Nobody 'Cept You," left off of Planet Waves is a heart rendering love song, "She's Your Lover Now," left off of "Blonde on Blonde, because they never got the last verse right, is a song I play all the time. Actually I play this whole set all the time. It's just great.
