Description:

Bob Dylan has always been incredibly prolific, only releasing a fraction of what he records. Such a policy has made him a prime target for bootleggers over the years, finally prompting this sanctioned 1991 triple-disc dive into the Dylan vaults. It consists of rare tracks, unreleased outtakes, early versions of classics ("Times They Are a-Changin'," "Like a Rolling Stone," "I Shall Be Released"), and alternate versions that sometimes cut the originals ("Idiot Wind"). A measure of Dylan's depth is his list of discarded songs ("She's Your Lover Now," "Blind Willie McTell," "Series of Dreams") that would be the crown jewels of most catalogs. These 58 tracks serve as a shadow history of one of our most important artists. --Ben Edmonds

5An early Dylan paradise  Oct 14, 2009
I|f you are like me, a fan of old Dylan and not so much when he got into the 70's then this bootleg hits the spot. He still in his heyday, and the songs show it. Many of theses songs weren't released although some are different versions of iconic tunes. The unreleased cuts are of great quality and spill the mind as much of hisreleased music of the time. Worth every penny and cheaper than Itunes!

5Sage's stages  Jun 17, 2009
Listen to these three brilliantly remastered discs one after the other and in sequence. While you do so, read the incisive and revealing notes on each outtake or track not included on one of the albums. You'll experience the moods and the changes of the mind in the music of the master (up until 'Shot of love'). Volume 1 is my least favourite, but Volumes 2 & 3 are utterly indispensable.

There is indeed no mystery so great as misery. On these three discs, Dylan takes you right up to the edge of this great void. And even though he can't explain it, the words and music he uses to describe it make you feel better, because now you know that someone else has been there there too.

5Whats Been Missing  May 26, 2009
Perfect for the already established Dylan fan. Many classic songs. Cd came with a handy booklet with photos and notes on each of the songs. Keep in mind it is a "Bootleg" series compilation, therefore some of the recordings are a little rough. Overall an excellent buy!

5Bob Dylan! Love it!  Apr 28, 2009
I've grown with him......continue to do so. Everything he does is simply the best!

4The Bootleg Series, Vols. 1-3 : Rare And Unreleased, 1961-1991   Apr 07, 2009
The Bootleg Series, Vols. 1-3 : Rare And Unreleased, 1961-1991 being a compilation box of Dylans unreleased songs from 1961 to 1991. Some of the songs that standout on this compilation are "He Was a Friend of Mine", "Like a Rolling Stone", and "Angelina". Dylan was and is such a prolific songwriter and the quality of his lyrics are impeccable. To imagine that I just started listening to Dylan some years ago then I realize what I have been missing for so many years. This is nothing short of genius! 4/5.
