This i s a good quality round up of 1985-6 Dylan. All the soundboards are excellent quality though most are available elsewhere and in the case of the 3 discs not of 1986 soundboards all are previously available as cds. Curiously several of the soundboards are around in edited form. Why does no one simply just give us just the full shows? There are a few songs here not found on other cds, whilst some tracks that are available elsewhere are omitted. That aside what you get sounds dynamically recorded and of course the music is great!

Wonderful sound quality on an album I have known since it was originally released

Took a little longer than expected to arrive, but otherwise it is perfectly acceptable.

The first thing I noticed about this release was how c**p it has instantly made the original cd release sound. Everything suddenly starts jumping out at you, instruments start appearing in the mix that I never realised were there.. The original cd issue of this album by Sony in the early 90's is very dull and lifeless by comparison to this version. Incidently this is me only listening to it on a normal stereo system and not through a SACD system (I can only imagine how magical it would sound then)... I also adore the fact the original artwork has been reinstated and the cd has been issued as a double disc, as opposed to the single disc version of the original (complete with chopped off sections of 'Sad Eyed Lady Of The Lowlands'... If you are only discovering Dylan for the first time, then this is 'THE' album to get your hands on... a classic in every sense of the word. The man truely was on fire at this period, and it magically seaps into the entire recording process.. If your already a Dylan fan, and are thinking of upgrading from your old version, then I'd highly recommend it, having just done exactly the same thing ++++++Read full review
THIS ALBUM EXISTS IN ANOTHER DIMENSION ,THERE WAS NOTHING TO COMPARE EITHER BEFORE OR AFTER ITS RELEASE .IT HAS NO PLACE IN TIME,IT CAN NOT REPRESENT THE PAST NOR IDENTIFEY WITH THE FUTURE.IT CREATES ITS OWN WORLD,IT DOES NOT NEED AIR TO BREATHE,IT CREATES ITS OWN ATMOSPHERE, IN REALITY THIS ALBUM COULD NEVER EXIST,IT COULD NEVER BE RECORDED,IF IT DID IT WOULD CHANGE THE COURSE OF HISTORY. PEOPLE MIGHT ASK QUISTIONS ,REBEL AGAINST THE SYSTEM,GOD KNOWS EVEN DROP OUT OF COLLEGE . OTHER MUSICIANS MIGHT HERE THIS,AND IT MIGHT EVEN INSPIRE THE IDEA OF THE CONCEPT ALBUM .EVEN THE BEATLES AND BEACHBOYS MIGHT TURN WIERD IF THEY GET TO HEAR THIS KIND OF THING,LET ALONE THOSE ROLLING STONES . IT MIGHT EVEN INFLUENCE GENERATIONS TO COME. BLONDE ON BLONDE DID NOT DEFINE 20TH CENTURY POP CULTURE,IT JUST STARTED THEIR THE MOST IMPORTANT RECORDED DOCUMENT IN SOUND'.Read full review
