This list didn't scan very well in alphabetical order, so I did quite
a bit of moving about. It's still not quite as I'd like it, but I've
nearly got to the end of my free time. It wasn't easy making a Bob
playlist, but I managed to get it down to 13.4 hours. It seemed to
require a lot more work to flow well - the others worked surprisingly
well without any tweaking. Also, some selections are just what I felt
like listening to at the time, rather than my favourite versions
(Tangled Up In Blue for example).

Rough stuff... Aside from one of the first Dylan comps I ever made
for cassette, I try to keep my Bob comps confined to a range of two or
three years... These days I'd probably limit it to one year for each
playlist... Putting together the 'lost years' of 67-70 is fun... In
your case, Dylan probably merits his own iPod...

What a staggering list. When you see 'em all laid out like this in
(almost) alphabetical order it makes quite a statement.

Could I choose the What Was It You Wanted from the Hammersmith
residency in 1990 please? That version burns my skull.

Well...seeing I was there, and I clearly remember it - as well as the
staggering Pretty Peggy-O - I'm tempted, but I've limited the
unreleased selections to those in 'official' quality. If you find a
super clean soundboard of Hammersmith 3rd Feb '90 please let me know

I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo envious of
you being there! I was working right next to the theatre when those
shows were on. I remember seeing the goddam signs but I couldn't go!!!

I only have rough tapes of those shows, I'm afraid. If ever I turn up
a soundboard I'll drop you a mail and let you know.

Well, he's by far the largest single part of my iPod. You're right
though, I think I'm actually a bit out of my depth with this
playlist. I was going for a Biograph style collection - one that
flows well despite the differences in age. Perhaps a number of
shorter lists would be better suited to Bob. He's far and away the
only artist in my collection that makes it this difficult

I've never heard of a soundboard of any of them. The audience
recordings are fine, but don't flow well next to official releases. I
was only just 19 at the time, but still found time to ensure I had
tickets to 3 of the 6 shows. The first was probably the best for me,
as it was the first time I'd been up close to stage, and seeing Bob
standing there singing Mr Tambourine Man less than 20 feet away was an
enormous shock to the system. The next was the 6th I think (of Feb)
and I had Row 15ish seats next to a couple of Essex girls (except they
had matured well by that point) who handed a joint to me during the
show - I couldn't believe it (these were my first concerts on my
own). The
last show was the 8th - the last of the residency where he played a
demented Disease Of Conceit at the piano (a proper piano, too). Those
shows made the following years' shows - when I saw 4 nights - seem
like a joke. You were working nearby? Why didn't you go?
