It seems that Bob Dylan’s catalogue is inexhaustible.
The time-honored troubadour unearthed some of his best treasures for The Cutting Edge 1965-1966, an expansive set that comes from the period of time when he recorded the seminal Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited and Blonde on Blonde.
The collection comes in a two- and six-disc format, in addition to a limited-edition 18-disc behemoth that includes each take of every song off those three albums.
False starts. Abrupt endings. Chatter from the booth. Chatter from the musicians. Flubbed notes and lyrics. It’s all there – raw and real and revealing. The comprehensive nature of the set truly takes the listener back to when many of the songs were just sparks in Dylan’s head.
Really, this one is a fascinating listen, and if you want to know more about it, click Featured Album: Bob Dylan’s The Cutting Edge 1965-1966: The Bootleg Series, Vol. 12 | Fender Picks to read the full story on Fender.com (Nov. 6, 2014).
