Dylan* – Dylan

this Australian repressing would be from the early 1980s, not 1973. The CBS logo design is from that later period.

I bought this CD (with the black tray) in a CD shop in Seoul S. Korea near Mok Dong. Weird place to find it. That was back in 1999.

Throw away the jacket cover and put this disc as disc3 of self portrait because that’s all this album is

Bobby wasn’t too happy about this release e

A really great album. I don’t care about the circumstances around the release, it’s still great. Good pressing as well.

Good country record, this reissue sound very good, ask infos

I love this record. Even though Columbia released it as a spite record, it really swings and my copy sounds awesome!

The covers are freaking amazing!

Is it the same master as the complete album collection?

I adore this record. It's totally baffling to me that people can hate it - especially the hard-core Dylan fans who are otherwise fans of his early-70s New Morning-era sound. To be sure - this is no Highway 61. But these are interesting interpretations of several really great tunes. And I don't mean interesting in a backhanded complimentary way, it really is neat to hear how Dylan takes these songs. I also think his performances are very enjoyable. They're raw, but still the work of true professionals. It's like listening to a jam session of Dylan and his band. In many ways, it reminds me of McCartney's early solo/Wings stuff. It's laid back in a way that makes for a supremely enjoyable and relaxing listen.

Anyways, I think this pressing sounds totally fine. Nobody has ever loved this record enough to wear out their copy (lol), so it's easy to get a great sounding one for cheap.

while many share a negative opinion about this record, I’m part of the rare opposite. I think this album fits well in anyone’s growing Dylan collection, featuring mostly covers that deserve the light of day. “Ballad of Ira Hayes” & “Can’t Help Falling in Love” have a feel of him just having fun performing songs he enjoys. Obviously it’s not one of his best albums, but it deserves another listen from those who wrote it off.

Puzzlingly bad collection of covers. Dylan does karaoke. Sounds like trying to lose fans on purpose.
