BOB DYLAN
Ten Of Swords (Disc 6/7) [Tarantula, 10LP/7CD]

Outtakes, live and unreleased tracks.

Bobsboots.com calls Ten Of Swords “the most famous Bob Dylan bootleg of all time”. This 10-LP set (134 tracks, over eight hours of music) of Dylan material from 1961 to 1966 was rushed out in the summer of 1985, shortly before the release of Biograph later that autumn.

Bobsboots.com also added: “The biggest problem is that most people who would like to have a copy of it, don’t. The restrictive price of the set, and the rare occurrence of it ever being for sale, severely limits the availability.”

But copies of the set were shared as cassettes and later as CD-Rs (occupying seven CDs).

Since then, tracks from Ten Of Swords have been officially released and a big word of thanks to Philip Cohen for providing the lowdown.

Note: A longtime music fan, Philip Cohen was a contributor to the now-defunct ICE Magazine and compiled the boxsets for The Yardbirds, The Small Faces, Humble Pie and Nice.

These tracks are no longer available for download.

  6. I Don’t think that cut 618 has been officially released. Only cut 705 (an alternate take) is on the Bootleg series Vols 1 - 3.. Can you please post 618?
