Unreleased Bob Dylan and George Harrison collaborations will surface on Dylan’s ‘The Bootleg Series Vol. 10’.
Bob Dylan’s 10th bootleg album will focus on the early session tapes that would become the ‘Self Portrait’ and ‘New Morning’ albums. It was at the time he was working closely with George Harrison who released the ‘All Things Must Pass’ album around the same time.
Harrison and Dylan co-wrote the opening track from ‘All Things Must Pass’ titled ‘I’d Have You Anytime’ and George covered Bob’s ‘If Not For You’ for the album.
‘The Bootleg Series Vol. 10’ will include 35 rarities and previous unreleased material from Dylan sessions from 1969-1971.
The cover is new artwork created by Dylan for the release.
According to bobdylanisis.com:
The Standard 2-CD version contains 35 tracks and comes with a soft cover perfect bound booklet. This version will be the newly remastered “Self Portrait” album in its entirety with “original sequencing”, i.e this release will begin with ‘Went To See The Gypsy’ and not ‘All The Tired Horses’, which in actual fact was a great opener.
The Deluxe Boxed Set contains 4-CD’s and will be housed in a slipcase. This version will contain the newly remastered “Self Portrait” album across the first two discs but will also include, for the first time ever, the complete 17-song historic performance by Bob Dylan and The Band from the Isle of Wight Festival on August 31, 1969– remixed in superb quality especially for this release.
There will be two hardcover books. Book 1 will feature “revisionist” “Self Portrait” liner notes penned by Greil Marcus (author of the notorious “What is this shit?” review for Rolling Stone magazine. Let’s see how he gets out of that one!!). Book 2 contains photos by John Cohen and Al Clayton and an essay from Michael Simmons.
The vinyl LP version contains the 35 “Self Portrait” tracks across 3 LPs (and 2 CDs) plus a 12″ x 12″ booklet that includes the Greil Marcus liner notes, the essay from Michael Simmons, and the photographs from John Cohen and Al Clayton. There are also pictures of the original tape boxes and cue sheets.
The Bootleg Series Vol 10 will be released in October.
