Bob Dylan / The Complete Album Collection Volume One: 47 CD box

Columbia / Legacy Recordings will release the ‘the entire official discography’ of Bob Dylan on 4 November 2013 in an enormous 47 CD box set, titled Bob Dylan The Complete Album Collection Vol. One.

All 35 studio albums are present and correct, including 1973’s Dylan, (which is issued on CD in North America for the first time) as well as six live albums, and a special two-CD compilation, Side Tracks, which brings together previously released non-album singles, tracks from compilations, and songs from films.

The packaging looks similar to the Johnny Cash Complete Columbia Album Collection although the hinged lid on the rectangular box on that set, looks to have been replaced with a lift off lid for this Dylan collection. Also, this features a hardcover book with new album-by-album liner notes, whereas the Cash box had a softcover book.

Of interest to collectors, will be the fact that 11 studio titles and three live releases have been newly remastered for this collection, including Self Portrait, Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid, Hard Rain, and Bob Dylan at Budokan.

If you don’t like the idea of a massive bulky box set sitting on your shelf and you’ve been looking for something to complement that Beatles apple-shaped USB stick that you bought a few years back, then you’re in luck, since The Bob Dylan Complete Album Collection Vol. One will also be available as a limited-edition harmonica-shaped USB stick containing all the music, in both MP3 and FLAC lossless formats. It comes with a digital version of the hardcover booklet, and is housed in a deluxe numbered box. For photos and more details on that set, click here.
