That honor coincides with the arrival of a previously unreleased live concert recorded in Seattle in late 1965 that features the legend performing the music from the album with the classic lineup of McCoy Tyner, Jimmy Garrison and Elvin Jones accompanied by Pharaoh Sanders, Donald Garrett and Carlos Ward. Recently A Love Supreme, John Coltrane’s spiritually divine masterwork had gone platinum nearly 60 years after its original release. This underappreciated era in Dylan’s musical career finally gets its proper due via this box.Ĭover of 'A Love Supreme: Live in Seattle' by John Coltrane. It’s a revelation for Dylan fans-especially the alternate takes and outtakes from the sessions for the classic 1983 Infidels LP (“Jokerman,” “Blind Willie McTell,” “Don’t Fall Apart on Me Tonight,” among them). The deluxe 5-CD set features 57 tracks of demos, rehearsal recordings, and live recordings drawing from the sessions for Shot of Love, Infidels and Empire Burlesque-nearly all of them never before released. This new installment of the Bootleg Series, focusing on the period between 19, makes a strong and convincing case that the legend had not lost a step as he was transitioning from his Christian music phase of the late 1970s to what would become the MTV era at the dawn of the 1980s. To critics, the 1980s have been considered an up-and-down decade for Bob Dylan in the context of his discography-a decade characterized by records that either met critical acclaim (for example, Oh Mercy!) or a mixed reception (i.e., Down in the Groove).
