BOB DYLAN BIOGRAPH DISC3
Label: Columbia
Release Date: October 28, 1985
Format:Flac
Biograph is both an excellent summary of Dylan's musical career (the first twenty years of it, at least) and an assortment of excellent rare and obscure tracks. Supreme classics like Blowin' in the Wind, Like a Rolling Stone, Knockin' on Heaven's Door, Tangled Up In Blue, Mr. Tambourine Man, Just Like A Woman and Subterranean Homesick Blues are here representing some of Dylan's finest recorded work to see commercial release. There are tons of very good lesser-known songs as well. I'll Be Your Baby Tonight, the excellent closing track from Dylan's John Wesley Harding album is one of Dylan's finest country love songs. Mixed-Up Confusion from 1962 was actually Dylan's first song with electric guitars and a backing band. The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll is very highly regarded by Dylan fans as a beautiful, sombre eulogy/protest song but remains largely unknown or forgotten to the general populace. To Ramona is one of Dylan's most beautiful and eloquent love songs (and it does have a lot of competition there). Can You Please Crawl Out Your Window is a single from 1965 that faded into obscurity by not appearing on an LP until Biograph in 1985. Senor (Tales Of Yankee Power) is a hidden classic from Dylan's underrated 1978 album, Street Legal. Just listen to this song and see if it doesn't give you goosebumps.
However, there's much more still. Numerous excellent tracks which did not see commercial release are here for your enjoyment. Songs such as I'll Keep It With Mine, Percy's Song, Lay Down Your Weary Tune, Abandoned Love, Caribbean Wind, Up To Me, and I Wanna Be Your Lover are as good as anything on Dylan's studio albums. You will also hear alternate versions of familiar favourites, some in the studio and some live, such as I Don't Believe You, Visions of Johanna, It's All Over Now Baby Blue, Isis, Romance in Durango, I Shall Be Released, Forever Young, and All Along the Watchtower.
Another reason is to pick it up is for two key tracks: Positively 4th Street and Knockin' on Heaven's Door. Positively 4th Street is a Dylan classic, released as a non-album single in 1965, the only album it was available on was Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits. Knockin' On Heaven's Door is a classic from 1973 that has seen many cover versions, notably from Eric Clapton and Guns N' Roses. The only album it appears on is the soundtrack to Sam Peckinpah's film Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid in which the song originally appeared.
