Yeah I saw the San Diego thing but its literally all the same stuff thats already in the box multiple times over. I think I'll be fine with 2 discs of various live material, 2 more discs of highlights from Toronto and then a full show from London. Can't imagine what two more discs of another full show will yield that isn't already in the box.

So is this stuff worth the money.
It's the first of the Bootleg series I was actually thinking of buying.
I love Dylan, but I never thought his live performances or recordings were much good except the 66 Albert Hall and the 1995 bootleg with the great guitar player.
So should I spend the money?

The banter is not there, the cds are ( mostly ) from the second San Diego show.

His Real Live album with Mick Taylor is pretty good. His set with The Band at The Last Waltz to me is outstanding unique live Dylan. Before The Flood is basically goes along with that too and is really great. His set at Bangladesh stops the concert cold and makes it the Dylan show, in a good way.
The man had a magical quality live back in the old days.

Regarding the songs played no difference, but on the first night in San Diego Bob spoke more to his fans than in the twenty years before altogether.Quote

Was the first and second shows that different?

What 1995 bootleg do you mean?

Subject of his words is religion, so that this concert is an important part of his gospel era and should have been included in the set rather than the second San Diego show or the one Earl's Court.

Tell Tale Signs (Vol.8) is worth your time and money if only for the two alternate versions of "Mississippi."

And the versions of Most of the Time as well.

John Lennon wrote a song 'Serve Yourself' (released on Lennon Anthology) which mocked Dylan's Gospel period.
A bit rich really, as John was prone to take up with any fad going.

If you are really into that phase of his career, which few are (though I'm one of the few) then it's worth getting.
I found the 1st 3 discs fascinating...maybe a little overkill beyond that. And a missed opportunity on releasing the entire Toronto show unedited in both audio and video form.
But then again the 2 cd version was too limiting.
I'd have to say the additional San Diego limited edition add (if ordered from bobdylan.com) may only be of interest to collectors.

Bob Dylan: A Basement Tapes acetate recording, circa 1967
£1,000 - 1,500
A double-sided 12inch Emidisc with typewritten recording details, plain, die-cut card sleeve, accompanied by a letter concerning the provenance
The tracks on this acetate are all from the 1967 sessions known as 'The Basement Tapes'. All but two of the tracks listed finally appeared on the 1975 official release. However, quite soon after the recording, 'unofficial' issues of variations of more than 100 tracks from the sessions began circulating amongst the music industry and fans. This may be one of those.
Provenance:
Given to the vendor by Brian Jones in 1967/8 when she was working as the Fan Club Secretary for the band, 1964-1972.
