Early reviews

Bob Dylan and the Band: The Basement Tapes Complete review – rickety, strange and utterly timeless – “Whether or not the 138 songs on this uber-bootleg six-CD box set really did change the course of rock music, the best bits are as good as it gets.” The Guardian

One of the best albums of 2014 – “Is it any surprise that one of the best albums of 2014 was recorded almost 50 years earlier? ‘The Basement Tapes Complete’ finally closes a chapter on one of rock’s greatest missing treasures… the golden era’s most mythical and absent recordings are a little less mysterious. But they’re no less compelling or remarkable.” Ultimate Classic Rock

Lo and behold, Bob Dylan’s ‘Basement Tapes’ are issued in full – The set time stamps the moment when the most important American musician of the 1960s vanished from New York City to a place a train ride away in the Catskills.  With each new take, a much ballyhooed document many regard as the big bang of an important strain of rootsy, laid-back American music comes more vividly into focus. The set removes decades’ worth of warble and sonic dust, to be the clearest possible view of a historic year. LA Times
