Bob Dylan - Live 1962-1966: Rare Performances From The Copyright Collections (2 x CD)

Columbia Records / Legacy Recordings 2 disc compilation consisting of previously released live recordings - ‘Live 1962 – 1966: Rare Performances From The Copyright Collections’. While all these tracks are previously released (as part of the ‘Copyright Collections’), most are near impossible to find. This album makes for a fantastic listen and shines a light on some great performances that were initially overlooked (because of their limited release).
