Peter, can you help with this one? I've done a search for this CD but can't find it.

Rick, he sure was something else at that time. How much more buried treasure is out there? I had heard so much about the Bootleg Series but quite frankly I thought that if Bob chose not to release something it was probably because it was no good. CD 1 blew me away, stuff like House Carpenter, No More Auction Block, Moonshiner and Quit Your Low Down Ways are absolutely wonderful examples of what his audiences must have been treated to in those small clubs in the early sixties. Now to hear that version of Kind Hearted Woman. I have to get this CD.

I had a friend of mine over the other night, he is a blues fan, but is lukewarm to Dylan. I played him a few of my favourite blues guys that he hadn't heard before and then I snuck on In My Time Of Dyin' from the first Dylan album. His jaw almost hit the floor when he realized it was Dylan. I played a few other tracks and he's off to buy the album. Bob had such an edge in both his singing and playing in those days, he just snarled the Blues and beat the notes out of the guitar, much the same way that Son House did, acoustic punk. Yet he did things his own way, he wasnt' trying to sound like the originals.
