my collection of the monos is spotty, so I'm actually more excited by that. Since Dylan was so spontaneous in the studio, it stands to reason that the Witmark performances could be just as good as the album cuts, yet I rarely listen to them. And the track listing overlaps significantly with disc 1 of Vol. 1.

I'm totally with Erik Snow and Nikolai. A 1978 summer (or december) show or a gospel show would have been my favourites for another Bootleg Series, too.
I'm happy that there is a new BS to be released, but I think they put too much emphasis on the 60s (especially early 60s) given the man's incredibly diverse career. A gospel show would have been a more daring but also a more interesting move I think.

Still waiting for a deluxe Blood on the Tracks with all the alternate versions and left-off songs in one place! They had indicated years ago that this was being planned. Anyone know what happened?

Thanks for that. I have my pre-order in on Amazon.

There are some great Gospel era boots on Expectingrain.com -- Look for "the Child's Balloon" (1981 New Orleans) and Rock Solid (1980).

...but strangely and sadly enough, there are NO SBD recordings of Europe or America 1978 - which stands for me as the strongest run of shows Bob Dylan ever did.
So....it would be very welcome with a "Live 1978" release, I'd think
Especially "Blackbushe" would be a good idea to release, since it's a very "legendary performance".....a lot of people in UK attanded that one - and it's maybe the very best show of 1978 as well....PLUS - it was recorded professionally. Hope Bob is reading this thread.

i'd go for a latter '78 show, too. it's really the only live run that interests me for this series...

There might not be such a big need in doing it *now*....since the mono releases will be out on CD - but I recommend the recent "sundazed" heavy vinyl pressings. They are nearly as good as the 1st editions.

yes! I have BIABH and Highway 61 from Sundazed. I actually don't listen very often to the albums before that, even Freewheeling, so I'd have to consider this mono set carefully.
