Dylan to release Bootleg Series, Volume 9
This next installment of rare, moldy and unreleased Dylan hits stores this October. This edition is highlighted by the infamous Witmark and Leeds demos. 47 tracks in all will make up the set, recorded between 1962 and 1964.
These demo tapes were originally recorded for the sole purpose of presenting them to other musicians for consideration towards performing or recording them. This then, will be the first time they will be available to the public as an official, albeit moldy release. Some of these tracks were later released by Dylan , but as totally different versions.
