Bob Dylan is to release a 36 CD box set containing every known recording from his 1966 concert tours of the US, UK, Europe and Australia.
Bob Dylan: The 1966 Live Recordings will be released on Friday, November 11 by Columbia Records and Sony Music’s Legacy Recordings.
The material has been drawn from three main audio sources: soundboards, CBS Records mobile recordings and audience tapes.
“While doing the archival research for The Cutting Edge 1965-1966: The Bootleg Series Vol. 12, last year’s box set of Dylan’s mid-60s studio sessions, we were continually struck by how great his 1966 live recordings really are,” said Adam Block, President, Legacy Recordings. “The intensity of Bob’s live performances and his fantastic delivery of these songs in concert add another insightful component in understanding and appreciating the musical revolution Bob Dylan ignited some 50 years ago.”
Columbia/Legacy will also release Bob Dylan’s performance at the Royal Albert Hall from May 26, 1966 as an album entitled The Real Royal Albert Hall 1966 Concert, as a 2CD and 12″ 2LP collection on November 25.
