Freewheelin’ – most valuable Dylan collectable

Thanks to Martin Cowan:

“Further to your earlier mention of April's Record Collector magazine for the second part of its Theme Time selection, this issue also contains a one page analysis of the early and unreleased version of "Freewheelin’..."

“As well as providing an interesting insight into why certain songs were removed and replaced by others, the feature also labels this album as the most valuable Dylan collectable.

“Interesting reading for any Dylan fan.”


ORIGINAL POST:

Another new must-buy: Record Collector, April 2007

The new (April) issue of Record Collector has the second half of the excellent two-part feature on Theme Time Radio Hour.

Planet Airwaves, compiled by Jason Draper, is a ten page article with the transcript of Dylan’s broadcast comments on over 60 of the artists featured in his weekly radio show, covering artists with surnames L-Y.

It’s filled out by some nice photos, and the magazine’s valuable guide to CDs carrying the songs featured on Dylan’s magnifico shows.

Like the March issue (see below), the April issue of Record Collector is highly recommended.
