The Outtakes! 1962-1964 (Japanese Title)

[Machine Translation] This album contains a selection of alternate versions from the extensive recordings of Dylan's three albums, "Freewheelin'," "The Times They Are a-Changin'," and "The Other Side of B. Dylan," which were a whirlwind in the history of music. The album is the most prolific period of Dylan's career, and as a result, many of the songs that were omitted from the album are great songs and fine pieces of music. The guitar version of "Black Crow Blues" and the piano and harmonica version of "Hero Blues" are also valuable. The first version of "All I Really Want To Do" was recorded before the cuts and other modifications that were made for the album. The Japanese explanation of the situation, episodes, and song titles of the time is included on the inside cover. The cover features a licensed photo by Getty Images Japan.

音楽史上に旋風を巻き起こした初期ディランの3枚のアルバム、『フリーホイーリン』『時代は変わる』『アナザーサイド・オブ・B・ディラン』の膨大なレコーディングから、別バージョンを選りすぐって収録。天才ディランが最も多作だった時期、結果アルバムから漏れた曲も粒ぞろいの名曲、佳曲が多く、しかも弾語りレコーディングゆえにどのテイクにもそれぞれ違う表現が聞かれ、ディランの真髄を感じられる。アルバムではピアノ版であった「Black Crow Blues」のギター弾語りバージョンや、ピアノ弾語り&ハーモニカの「Hero Blues」も貴重。「All I Really Want To Do」はアルバム収録にあたって施されたカットなどの修正が入る前のファースト・バージョンを収録。当時の状況、エピソード、曲目などの日本語解説文を内ジャケに掲載。Eternal Groovesの"ROCK OFF"シリーズから登場! 日本著作権協会JASRAC許諾商品。Getty Images Japanのライセンス写真使用ジャケ。
