Had a chance to listen to some tracks from The Genuine Bootleg Series - Take 2 today. Or - I should say only to disc 1 of the 3CD set. Still too busy catching up with the early 60's to go any further into it just yet. Besides, we'll leave it to Moe or somebody else to work up a more thorough review. However, a few of the disc 1 tracks did catch my attention:
Track 1 - The Two Sisters:
Listed as "recorded at Karen Wallace's appartment, St. Paul, Minnesota, May
1960." This song already circulates. I'm not well-versed on this tape, but
the song appears here in good to very good quality considering its source.
It's only a bit over 2-mins in length and seems to be faded out at the end
(come on you authorities, are we being cheated on this one?). It should be
noted that the young singer has a great 'Nashville Skyline' voice.
Track 10 - Mr Tambourine Man II:
This is listed as "recorded at the Newport Folk Festival, Rhode Island, 26
July 1964." A great full-length (7:10) version complete with harmonica
intro. It's performed with much greater conviction than the unsure
(draggy?) studio working done with Jack Elliott some six weeks earlier (btw
- that one is Mr TMan I on this disc). The Newport Mr TMan is in the same
great quality as All I Really Want to Do ('64 Newport) which appeared on The
Emmett Grogan Acetates CD some time ago. Dylan performs this song as a
'request from one of you.'
Track 12 - Lunatic Princess Revisited:
Listed as "recorded at Columbia Studios, New York, 16 June 1965." I'm not
sure if that date is correct since Krogsgaard's recent Recording Sessions
work shows all takes of From a Buick Six (alt. title: Lunatic Princess No.
3) were done on 30 July 1965. However, this track is a very short riff
(approx 1:13) which shows little resemblance at all to the full versions of
FaBSix. Sound is great quality, and Dylan's delivery is quite acidic.
Unfortunately, there's just not much of it, but here's what one lazy
listener catches (please help if you will):
Why should you have to be so frantic? You always wanted to live in the past. Now all you should be so ???atic, You finally got your wish at last. You used to be - oh so modest, With your arm around your cigarette machine. Now you lost it all, I see. And all you got is, Your two-dollar bill, And your hat full of gasoline. Well, you ?keep? low down shoulder and you ??? ??? ??? After all, things could be much worse ... {song fades out}Track 13: I Don't Wanna Be Your Partner:
Track 15 - Does She Need Me I & II:
Noted as "recorded in a Glasgow hotel room, 19 May 1966." This is a longer
version of what has been called On a Rainy Afternoon, the song which closes
out the film Eat The Document. It carries on here for nearly an additional
3 mins, with Dylan playing and telling Robbie how it should be done. In
fact, he gets almost emphatic with it as he caresses it along and makes sure
that Robbie knows it gets "slower, almost twice as slow" near the ending.
Fantastic sound - a nice addition to the stereo What Kind of Friend Is
This? which came out on the original Genuine Bootleg Series boot CD. And we
sure wish the circulating film soundtrack could have been this good, too.
Track 16 - Like a Rolling Stone:
Listed as "recorded at Royal Albert Hall, 27 May 1966." To my knowledge,
this version is *different* from what has previously been in general
circulation. However, I think the labeling is incorrect on this disc (i.e.,
this LARS is from the 26 May 1966 show). The following is a generally
accurate description of what is on the GBS-Take 2 CD:
C. Heylin in "Bob Dylan: The 1966 Tour" (Record Collector, May 1996) says:
On the first Albert Hall electric set Dylan seems to have mixed up his cocktails again and is more stoned than wired....Personally, I won't vote for this as the best live version of the song. Overall, the sound is very good, and Dylan's voice is well up-front, but the instruments aren't as clear and well-mixed as in some of the other available recordings. Dylan was into the song, but his delivery doesn't seem quite as fiery as it was in Edinburgh a week earlier or in Manchester for that matter. He was tired as hell and perhaps feeling the effects of those cocktails. The closing instrumental refrain is truly a disaster (horrendous is a word that quickly comes to mind). But still I love it! Every precious minute of the whole thing. Total time for the actual song is 8:40 (sorry, no 12-min LARS here). Intros and verbal ramblings add another 1:45 on the front. At the end, there's about 30 secs of very strong (wild & appreciative?) applause as the sound fades out. Lazy listeners could hear no booing or cat-calls..... Before the last song, which turns out to be the legendary nine-minute "Like a Rolling Stone" first mentioned by Greil Marcus in a 1969 'Rolling Stone' article (yes, it really does exist), Dylan tells the crowd that he's "loved every minute", and proceeds to introduce the Hawks for the only time on the tour, and then dedicates the song to "the Taj Mahal" before launching into one final tirade. Unfortunately, the extra two-and-a-half minutes that they devote to "Like a Rolling Stone" is merely a jam session that has more in common with "Sister Ray" ('I'm gonna take this solo, 'No, I'm gonna take this solo', etc.).

(special thanks for the Sugaree sent halfway round the world;
you know who you are)
If I can continue where our other friend stopped- here are a few details regarding Disc 2 of the set.
Tomorrow is A Long Time- completely different than anything I have heard before, in a completely new tempo (at least to me)- great quality also.
George Jackson- acoustic version (same as Hard to Find), too bad they didn't see fit to put elctric version on this one.
House of the Rising Sun- Bob having fun with the song, not unlike trumped up version found on Hwy 61 interactive.
Abandoned Love- from Other End, surprisingly good audience tape from that show and Bob seems to be very enthusiastic regarding performance.
Also includes the obligatory Basement Tapes material ( 4 songs) as well as a few clunkers (at least to me) like Wild Mountain Thyme from Isle of Wight. I don't think date of August 31st 1967 is right on that track!
A really fine collection- to me well worth the money spent. Coupled with #1 it makes a great overview of the career from 1960-1990 or so.
I just picked it up today, I'll post some more as soon as I listen to it some more.
Luke asked: >Could those of you who have scored the new Genuine Boot Series vol. 2 >report on both the sound quality throughout and the packaging (is there a >booklet? photos? track annotation?)?The package configuration is identical to that used in the original Gen Boot Series set which these same folks at Scorpio put out. If anything, the photos are even better this time around (virtually all are in high gloss color). Even the individual slip covers have color pics on one side w/track annotations on the other side. The 40-page booklet contains full text of the Paul Jay Robbins interview of Dylan which appeared in the May 1965 issue of In-Beat Magazine. Many more color photos are in the booklet plus track annotations.
[This listener's opinion follows]:
To this point, I've only properly listened to disc 1 of this set and made rough comparisons to any tracks which appear on other CDs. So far, the tracks on GBS2 are equally good or superior in sound quality. For instance, I would choose "Freeze Out" off of this one versus the same track which appears on Thin Wild Mercury Music (just a preference but sure sounds better to me). The totally new material on GBS2 (disc 1) stands well-enough on its own and is all knock-your-socks-off quality. (Till I get into discs 2 & 3 and make some comparisons, I'll still reserve judgement on overall sound quality). But *nothing* I've heard to this point makes me regret my choice. And that's just what it is: *my choice*
-Bob Stacy
Some of the following tracks are listed on this CD under wrong dates and names and in the wrong order. After each track I guess whether it is new (may just be mislabled) or appears on other preexisting CDs.

From further listening and help from others on this list I have the following updates to my original post.
Hero Blues on The Genuine Bootleg Series Mr. Tambourine Man 6/9/64 on The Emmet Grogan Acetates Goodbye Holly on The Genuine Bootleg Series Nobody 'Cept You on The Genuine Bootleg Series If You See Her, Say Hello 1/30/78 on Darkness at the Break of Noon Most of The Time 3/2/90 - Promo CD single Freedom for the Stallion 11/84 - Important Words (take 2) Almost Done I - (new) Almost Done II - Dirty Lies (takes 2 & 3)The 3 duplicates from the first release might explain why they named the second in the series "Take 2" instead of "Volume 2".

Just got through listening to the entire Genuine Bootleg Series Take 2 and here are my impressions. CD One 1. The Two Sisters 5/60 From the Karen Wallace "samples" tape, a tape she was trying to use to sell the original tape to the highest bidder. This tape has been in circulation for some years now, although not as wide as the "armpit" tape. The quality of this song is good, as is the rest of the short sample tape. 2. Long-a-Growin 4/11/61 From the Carnegie Chapter Hall concert 11/4/61 (the date above is wrong). No real reason for this to be here. It appears on at least one other CD boot - "Acoustic Troubador". Perhaps it's here to show contrast with the later version of the same song from the Basement Tapes. 3. Corrina, Corrina 4/24-25/62 As far as I can tell, the same acoustic version that's been available for many years now. I can't tell any significant difference. 4. That's Allright Mama 4/14/62 An acetate from the Freewheelin' sessions. Long available. 5. Hero Blues 12/6/62 Another Freewheelin' outtake, in circulation for some time now. 6. Long Time Gone, Witmark demo Long available Witmark demo. 7. Lay Down Your Weary Tune 10/20/63 Carnegie Hall, 10/26/63 actually. Long available as part of the projected live album "Bob Dylan In Concert". From acetate. 8. Guess I'm Doing Fine, Witmark demo Another Witmark demo, long available. 9. Mr. Tambourine Man 6/9/64 (w/ Jack Elliott) From the Emmett Grogan acetates, this is a recently circulated take from the "Another Side" sessions. 10. Mr. Tambourine Man, Newport 7/26/64 To my knowledge, never previously available. Sounds great! 11. It's All Over Now Baby Blue 1/13/65 The usual outtake. Wrong date. Should be 1/15/65, I think. Long available. 13. Lunatic Princess Revisited 6/16/65 Something new! Too bad it's only a snippet. 14. I Don't Want to be Your Partner 10/20/65 This is new. Early take of what was to become "I Wanna Be Your Lover". Still needed work, but not bad. Incomplete. 15. Freeze Out 11/20/65 The so-called fast version. The sound seems to be slightly improved here. Also appears on a few different CDs prior to this. 16. Does She Need Me 1 & 2 5/19/66 Another new one. One of the highlights of this collection. Dylan and Robertson work out this new song. Dylan sounds very much like he would on the Basement Tapes. 17. Like A Rolling Stone 5/27/66 Is this 5/27 or 5/26? Either way, it's outstanding and another highlight of the collection. Never previously circulated, this is the legendary 9 minute "Rolling Stone" with Dylan introducing the band and calling them poets. The song is dedicated to the Taj Mahal. Dylan sounds very stoned and the ending goes on a little longer than usual, but it's not really a jam or series of solos. It's really just the band vamping on the ending until signalled by Bob to end it. There is a lot of applause at the end, so I guess he won over the audience after all. Disc Two 1. I'm Not There 1967 Improved quality from any previous Basement Tapes collection. This is the best so far. Official release quality. 2. Silent Weekend 1967 The track listing is confused here and lists the first four songs on this disc in the wrong order. This is the correct location. Another improved sound. 3. Long-A-Growin 1967 Sounds like an improvement in sound to me. 4. Banks of the Royal Canal 1967 A MAJOR sound improvement. Vocals are clearer and the instruments are brighter. 5. Wild Mountain Time 8/31/69 No reason for this to be here. It's an audience recording, long available. I never much cared for this version anyhow. 6. Tomorrow is a Long Time 6/70 New! One of the highlights of the collection. Ever since Clinton Heylin described this in his book, I've been dying to hear it. This version came very close to being released on "New Morning". I think it should have been. 7. Spanish is the Loving Tongue 6/70 New!!! This is the same take as on the single, but it's in stereo for the first time *AND* there is a bass guitar that was cut out of the original mix. Possibly the bass was overdubbed later. 8. George Jackson 11/4/71 As far as I can tell, this is the single version. 9. Goodbye Holly 1/20/73 Didn't this make it to the last Genuine Bootleg Series? I don't hear anything different. Long available. 10. House of the Rising Sun 11/2/73 New!!! Incomplete take. It seems like a warmup. Slightly hissy. 11. Nobody 'Cept You 11/2/73 New? I can't really tell. It sounds like the other two takes that we've already heard. I confess I haven't compared them all yet. 12. Tangled up in Blue 9/16/74 The BOTT original version. Nothing new here. 13. Abandoned Love 7/3/75 The live debut of this song. Good sound quality, but long available. 14. People Get Ready 10/75 This date can't be right. It's supposed to come from the 1976 SIR rehearsals. Sounds more like the version from the Renaldo & Clara promo EP. 15. The Water is Wide 3/30/76 I don't think this is new. The "Sign Language" session tapes have been in circulation for some time now. 16. Repossession Blues 2/1/78 Long available. Excellent sound quality, though. 17. If You See Her Say Hello 1/30/78 Also long available, but the sound here may be an improvement. 18. Stop Now 2, 5/2/78 New! A slower version of the same song. Sound not that hot. 19. Coming From The Heart 5/2/78 New! Not so good sound, but nice to hear anyway. Disc Three 1. Ain't Gonna Go to Hell 4/20/80 Excellent sound. Available for some time. 2. Cover Down, Break Through 4/19/80 Excellent sound, and also available for sometime. 3. Groom Still Waiting at the Altar 11/15/80 This is a live version with Mike Bloomfield. Excellent sound. Already available before this. 4. Magic 4/81 This song appeared on the "work tape", long before we found out that it was part of the "Shot of Love" sessions. This is a complete and virtually finished take. I don't think this has circulated before, but I could be wrong. 5. Heart of Mine 4/81 As far as I can tell, the same version that was originally intended to be on the album and appearing on the rough mix tape. 6. Nadine 2/16/83 (PA w/ Levon Helm, etc.) Hmmm, a PA tape! Where is the rest of this? I've only heard audience tapes from this gig, and there was nothing to indicate that the band sounded this good. This is great stuff. New, as far as I know. 7. We Three 3/84 (Malibu home recording) Is this part of the Plugz tape? I never bothered to hear it, so I don't know. New, as far as I know. 8. Almost Done 1, 5/23/84 From the rehearsal tape at the Beverly Theatre. Long available. 9. Almost Done 2, 5/27/84 Now, this sounds like a PA tape. Is there really a Verona PA tape in circulation? I didn't know of one. New, as far as I know. 10. Freedon for the Stallion 11/84 Sound is muddy, but this may or may not be yet another take. It sounds virtually complete and worked out. 11. Something's Burning Baby 11/84 New!!!!! Longer version with alternate lyrics. I'm sure this has never circulated before. 12. To Fall in Love with You 8/27-28/86 Supposedly a newly circulated recording, but I don't know. The Hearts of Fire sessions have been available for some time. If this is something different, I'd like to know for sure. 13. Got Love if You Want it 4/87 Taken from the original promo version of "Down in the Groove". The sound is as good as it gets. 14. Don't Keep Me Waiting Too Long 5/87 From the Grateful Dead tour rehearsals. Sound is excellent. May be an improvement. 15. Everthing's Broken 3/89 Originally called "Broken Days". Same version that circulates as part of the "Oh Mercy" sessions, as far as I can tell. Possible sound upgrade. 16. Born in Time 3/89 Again, probably the same as appears on the "Oh Mercy" sessions tape. Could be a sound upgrade. 17. Most of the Time 3/2/90 Now this one I'm still not sure of. It could be a different take than the one that appears on the promo. Anybody know for sure? 18. Series of Dreams 9/8/93 Live PA version from Wolf Trap. The live debut, but unfortunately not a very good version. In fact, almost unlistenable. Still, excellent sound. May be an improvement over any previously circulating Wolf Trap 9/8/93 soundboard. All in all, a much better collection than GBS Volume 1. I thought that collection more or less sucked. This one is different and well worth owning. -- John Howells howells@sgi.com http://reality.sgi.com/howells

On Wed, 18 Sep 1996 09:24:52 -0700 John HowellsThis version is definitely not from the 20th as far as I can tell. The back-up singers come in during the intro on the version on GBS Take 2. They don't on the 20th. You can hear a brief second of "Cover Down" at the end of "Ain't Gonna Go..." from the 20th though. I haven't heard anything from the 19th so this is just from what I heard from my copies of the 20th and GBS Take 2.

The Genuine Bootleg Series Take 2 calls this track "Does She Need Me I & II". Previous postings to r.m.d. have placed this as "On a Rainy Afternoon".
Both "On a Rainy Afternoon" and "I Can't Leave Her Behind" are listed for this session in Dundas and Krogsgaard.
"On A Rainy Afternoon" has appeared previously on The Genuine Basement Tapes Vol 5.
"I Can't Leave Her Behind" has not appeared previouslyon CD.
