Bob Dylan – Self Portrait

This pressing seems to be the closest I can get to for my copy, but I cannot find an exact match. Mine is XSM-153504-1D o T.

Ist doch ne super pressung!! Tolle seperation. Klarer sound. Toll

I am so glad I read the positive reviews provided. Like some others have already mentioned, I also purchased this album in 1970 and really hardly played it… did not appreciate it back then. But after reading some of these comments, today I pulled it off the shelves and listened to it, and it definitely is something 70 year-old me likes a lot better than 15 year-old me did. Thanks for sharing your thoughts to motivate me.

There is also a Wes Garland cut at United with the same Barcode. Infuriating.

hi I found a version with the gold print on the back "government sales only" any information?

This pressing sounds fuller and richer than my US pressing. Surface noise is nearly non-existent; very quiet vinyl. Highly recommended!

Mostly a hard panned mix vocals alone in the centre. Bob’s voice is clear and wonderful. This is a beautiful, rich and full pressing. Appears to share plates with 1st American pressings, thus a cheaper option for those looking for a great sounding first pressing. Highly recommended.

This is a beautiful album by Bob Dylan. Probably somehow misunderstud one, but definitley a beautiful one. Recording, production and pressing are good too and the whole thing sounds great.

The sleeve on my copy has a sheet in the middle to separate the discs, which appears to be the cover of a Taiwanese issue of Tumbleweed Connection by Elton John!

Here we have s very nice Europian (Holland-Nederland) repress and sounds great. I think that this album is the most personal album by Bob Dylan. Many of songs are cover songs but we have never been closer to Bob Dylan then here on this fantastic album. Just take time and enjoy the music.
