Product Description

Bob Dylan (featuring Johnny Cash) - Travelin' Thru, 1967 - 1969: The Bootleg Series Vol. 15.

Disc One of Travelin' Thru, 1967 - 1969: The Bootleg Series Vol. 15 finds Dylan in Columbia's Studio A in Nashville recording alternate versions of compositions written for John Wesley Harding (October 17 and November 6, 1967) and Nashville Skyline (February 13-14, 1969) while introducing a new song "Western Road" (a Nashville Skyline outtake).

Discs Two and Three of Travelin' Thru are centered around Dylan's collaborations with American music icon Johnny Cash including the much sought-after Columbia Studio A sessions and on-stage performances at the Ryman Auditorium (May 1, 1969) for the recording of the premiere episode of The Johnny Cash Show (originally broadcast on ABC-TV on June 7, 1969).

Disc Three closes with tracks recorded on May 17, 1970 with Grammy Award-winning bluegrass banjo legend Earl Scruggs for the PBS television special, "Earl Scruggs: His Family and Friends" (originally aired January 1971).

  1. Country Pie 4 Star Review

    Posted by on 4th Nov 2019

    I don't think anyone is claiming that the Cash sessions are the greatest find in the Dylan vault, and of course they've been released to extend the 50-year copyright; but there's much to enjoy here. And of course there are the John Wesley Harding and other Nashville Skyline outtakes too. The waltz-time As I Went Out One Morning is just gorgeous; the early version of Lay Lady Lay similarly so. The Cash sessions themselves are full of beautiful moments - Dylan meeting Jack Clement, clearly too nervous to claim that he knows the words to Guess Things Happen That Way (although he does); the oh-so-Dylanesque rewrite "for leavin' me so undone" in I Still Miss Someone; and I defy anyone not to smile as they both swap Understand Your Man and Don't Think Twice, It's All Right, brimming with joy and mutual respect.
