Bob Dylan

Another Ridiculously Large Post Of Rarities, This Time From bobdylan.com (1997-2004)
96 Songs, Nearly 9 Hours Of Rare Bob
(Courtesy Of Dylan Himself)

A complete collection of tracks officially released on bobdylan.com (via Croz-FM) from 1997 to 2004. During Dylan's never-ending tour, Bob's website posted free downloads from numerous tour stops along the way, including a few curios and oddities. Here they are, in order of release. If you're a fan, you'll know what to expect... some strange song selections and some bizarre arrangements of classic material. You'll also find recordings from Dylan's 1963 Carnegie Hall show, unreleased outtakes from The Basement Tapes, a few songs that would later surface on Bootleg Series CDs and even a handful of tracks duplicated from our 206 song post (now up to 217) of Non-LP Bob. But, the majority are raw road recordings, lengthy (in the 5-6, up to 9-10 minute range) with some of it barely above bootleg quality - additionally complicated by the growing raspiness of Bob's voice and the license he takes with his own melodies. It's not necessarily his best work, but it is now among his rarest officially released work. Still... aren't you curious to hear Dylan's 2002 version of George Harrison's "Something," recorded at Madison Square Garden - the site of The Concert For Bangla Desh. Links in Comments
