Notes

BOB DYLAN - BBC In Concert 1965.
This is a major upgrade to any recording circulating earlier. If you're a big Dylan collector, you might have downloaded this already last fall, when it first appeared on the Brand X torrent tracker (you know, that really big one). If you got that version, this is the same thing. But I'm posting it again here for those who may have missed it. If you like acoustic Dylan, I highly recommend this. This is among his last full-acoustic performances before he "went electric" later in 1965. Although the sound is excellent, it's not perfect. There is some fairly minor distortion on some songs. But this is a true line recording -- all earlier tapes originated from a recording made by holding a microphone in front of a TV speaker. If you have the "At the Beeb" boot on the Main Stream label, that one's quite good, but this one is better.
Full artwork scans are included. They feature photos of Dylan at this TV filming, on June 1, 1965.
I took the following information from the original torrent posted elsewhere. Thanks very much to the person who did the work on this and made it available.

Enjoy,
