A Simple Twist Of Fate - The Bob Dylan Thread

Good to know — though this is still probably the kind of set I'd prefer on CD/digital anyway, for ease of jumping around (and generally trying to cut down on vinyl/save space).

Also interesting, it appears the acoustic "Too Late" in the set is a different take than the one originally released on the excellent Uncut compilation last summer.

I hear ya on trying to limit space/save money haha. i'm not very good at it unfortunately...it was the Third Man Vault pressing and I figured I could always sell it later and get my money back if I didn't enjoy it. I do really like it though.

For sure, it looks like a nice set. And actually somehow more affordable it seems than the deluxe CD set was up here? Haha. Though that CDs have a beautiful hardbound book included, which would be pricey to produce.

I now have 1-5 and 12-16. I wonder if any in the middle will ever be repressed!

I thought I had more…but I’ve got 1-4 arriving soon and then 5,10,14 and 16. I hope they repress some in the middle! Volume 8 is probably highest on my wantlist of the ones I don’t own…or the No Direction Home Classic Records pressing…

No direction home is mine. Followed by 10. I might have a lead on 11 but I can’t afford it right now 😂

11 doesn’t look TOO crazy on discogs. Seems like there are some in Europe for €50.

I really lucked out on 10. Got it for $45 from Insound, which was a really poorly run online vinyl retailer. They always had insane deals and went out of business.

Couple of new arrivals from Japan. Came with a 60th Anniversary post card.

I'm trying to decide whether I'm glad you posted these ;) because I found them irrresistable. About $100 bucks later, both are sitting here waiting to be cleaned. I gotta be honest, for some reason that postcard alone makes it worthwhile. Thanks for the heads-up. I ended up buying from recordshopshibuya via discogs.

I got BIABH. No postcard. The record sounds amazing. HW61 from this run is killer as well.
 
Russ I said:
Yeah, the postcard seems to be unique to The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan. Who knows why?

I got a postcard with both of them, but I think the postcards where more limited than the albums, so only the earlier pre-orders came with the postcard.

Ordered them as well, on a huge Dylan kick lately and ordered em from the same spot. They also had the Pat Garret MoFi brand new for ~$45, which is oddly one of my favorite Dylan albums.

Grab the HW61. If it’s not on cogs, same shop has an eBay store. It’s stellar. I also grabbed the mofi there. Way cheaper than US sellers

Didn’t see it on cogs but will check eBay, thanks!

EDIT: Actually looks like they put on up on Discogs since I ordered haha. Placed an order and will see if they can combine the shipping.

Followed your (ill-considered) advice and grabbed HW61--was able to get it through cogs (just after @Colonel4Bin I think). Do you know if those are the only three titles that have been released as part of this Sony Japan reissue effort?

I apologize for being a bad influence LOL

Those are the only three so far. Blonde on Blonde is next, and I thought it comes soon.

How is Freewheelin’?
