No Direction Home: The Bootleg Series Vol. 7 [Box] - Dylan, Bob (CD 2005)

The item was well priced and delivered very quickly. Excellent service. The CD arrived new and in its original sealed case. Bob Dylan No Direction Home The Soundtrack is a great album and I highly recommend it to any music fan.

This is a great compilation of live recordings - classic Dylan songs. He was never known for a crystal clear, gorgeous voice, so don't expect it - it sounds like Dylan, so think great music and torturous vocals. But it's classic Dylan- the lyrics are incredible. For the true Dylan fan, these are great live recordings. Also, don't buy it because it's a movie soundtrack - it's just a compilation of great Dylan recordings. The "movie" portion of it has no impact at all. The studio recordings are more clear and well-produced, so if you're just starting out with Dylan, it's best to start there. But for the true fan, these are great live recordings.

I think Dylan's finest Era was "Bringing it all Back Home" through "Blonde on Blonde" and the best of those three albums was struck in the middle. This two disc set offers Alternate takes that were good enough to make the final cut. This set represents my favorite addition to the "Bootleg Series" ... so far!

Bob Dylan is a singer in his own category. This CD Set has songs from his early years through today. The live versions of his songs provide an excellent feeling for his music. If you are a Dylan fan, I highly recommend this limited CD Set. You can purchase it from my ebay store at http://stores.ebay.com/TomsCDs-Electronics-Nmore for a great price.

This is a wonderful two disc set of early Dylan. The first disc consists mostly of solo Dylan (early), whereas the second disc is Dylan from the Blonde on Blonde period. Very nice version of "Visions of Johanna". I highly recommend this disc. It is essential for true Dylan fans. If you are just a newbie Dylan fan, consider just getting some of his early albums and, perhaps, Blonde on Blonde.
