Subject: RE: Dylan fans, your opinion Please
Got it last night. I think I'm going to like it. The enclosed 63 page booklet is very informative. It has a lot of insight into Bob's influences, his songs and is way less cryptic than a lot of Dylan quotes that I've read.

I have only been able to listen to Disc 1 so far, but I'm enjoying the previously unreleased stuff. There is some stuff here that many artists woul be proud to have on any of their works, I think it just shows how strong a writer he is that these songs were left off earlier releases. I might get a friend of mine who has a CD burner put only the stuff I don't already have on to a single CD.

I'm also quite surprised by how much of the material is only available on this CD.

I guess the next purchase will be the Bootleg Series. I just can't stand the thought of spending $68.00 CDN on a CD collection. Maybe I'll find that used too.
