Bob Dylan - Fragments—Time Out of Mind Sessions (1996-1997) The Bootleg Series, Vol. 17 [5 CD, 2023/FLAC-HD 24-96]

'Fragments—Time Out of Mind Sessions (1996-1997)' shows how Dylan made his first late-career classic. 

Most editions of Bob Dylan’s three-decades-and-running Bootleg Series focus on a particular phase of his career, but a few have zoomed in on the making of an especially hallowed record. As its title makes clear, that’s the case with Fragments—Time Out of Mind Sessions (1996-1997), the 17th volume in the series. That one album is blown out into a five-disc package, which includes two full sets of unissued outtakes and another of live recordings from the Dylan-comes-alive tours that followed in the record’s wake.

Disc One – Time Out of Mind (2022 Remix)

Disc Two – Outtakes and Alternates

Disc Three – Outtakes and Alternates

Disc Four – Live (1998-2001)

Disc Five – Bonus Disc (Previously Released on The Bootleg Series Vol. 8: Tell Tale Signs: Rare and Unreleased 1989–2006)

 

Steve Miller Band - The Early Albums (1968-71) [6 CD/FLAC]

 

Originally called the Steve Miller Blues Band, the group first made its mark as a psychedelic blues rock band in San Francisco. They went through a fallow period commercially in the early seventies before coming back with the hit album The Joker and the song of the same name in late 1973, followed by the band's two most successful studio albums in 1976 and 1977, Fly Like an Eagle and Book of Dreams. In 1978.

Children Of The Future is where it all started for Steve Miller. Originally released in 1968, this debut, chock full of unpredictable acid blues, is very different from the mainstream rock sounds of the '70s that brought Miller fame and fortune. Although few of these songs are ever featured on the radio or performed at Miller's concerts, Children Of The Future remains one of Miller's more interesting and challenging releases.

 

 

Phish - The Gorge '98 (5 CD, 2023/FLAC-HD)

The Gorge '98 is a live box set by Vermont-based jam band Phish. Released on December 9, 2022, it documents their performances at the Gorge Amphitheatre in Grant County, Washington on July 16 and 17, 1998.

 

 

Ray Cooder - Boomer's Story (1972/2017) [FLAC-HD]

Boomer’s Story is the third studio album by American roots rock musician Ry Cooder, released in 1972.

The title track was previously recorded as “The Railroad Boomer” by Bud Billings (aka Frank Luther) and Carson Robison in a performance recorded at the studio at Liederkranz Hall in New York on September 9, 1929 (Victor V-40139). Although it is credited on Cooder’s album as “traditional,” Robison was awarded a copyright and the song “can’t be shown to have circulated in oral tradition.” Gene Autry recorded it in December of the same year. In the 1930s the song was recorded for Decca Records by the Rice Brothers’ Gang, in 1939 by Roy Acuff & His Smoky Mountain Boys, in 1941 by Riley Puckett for RCA, and in the 1950s by Cisco Houston (as “The Rambler”) and by The New Lost City Ramblers, who included Cooder’s guitar teacher, Tom Paley.
