Bob Dylan’s The Basement Tapes Complete verwacht
Onder de titel The Basement Tapes Complete: The Bootleg series Vol. 11 verschijnt er op 3 november een ‘nieuw’ Bob Dylan album. Het album wordt uitgebracht als een 6CD uitgave, een 2CD uitgave en een 3LP versie.
The Basement Tapes betreft een collectie van meer dan 100 songs die door Dylan en The Band in de zomer van 1967 werden opgenomen in West Saugerties net buiten het plaatsje Woodstock. Bijna alle tracks werden opgenomen in de kelder van het huis, beter bekend als The Big Pink (waarnaar het eerste album van The Band werd vernoemd). Veel van de liedjes waren eigen songs maar de meerderheid van de sessies zijn covers van traditionele folk liedjes, blues ballads en rock & country nummers.
In totaal verschenen 24 van deze songs op het officiële Basement album uit 1975. Die collectie songs was daarvoor al bekend bijvoorbeeld op de populaire bootleg Great White Wonder. De nieuwe versie van The Basement Tapes bevat voor het eerst alle opnames die destijds in de zomer van 1967 werden opgenomen. Sommige nummers werden pas onlangs gevonden en zijn allemaal opnieuw gemastered van de originele tapes.
