Another rare sound source end became a hot topic in the last year, it is a session of “ANOTHER SIDE OF BOB DYLAN”. Album carved termination and appearance of literally newborn Dylan of Real fork era might say that it was some sort of problem work. Actual history of Dylan It is mean that waiting even greater leap (Electric of) after this, because while still accompaniment of dramatic changes in the lyrics I was recorded in playing talking of acoustic guitar. But here the song was recorded in covered in later various artists “My Back Pages” and Dylan himself continued to play in many years live “It Is not Me, Babe” because I had a classic such as, again can not be ignored, I think than anyone of Dylan fans are aware that it is the presence of the album say even with the rather important.
And it’s this album, but it has been summarized from the stunt that what is at once recording a session of the day. Even before the later, Dylan’s is had to complete the album in one day only at this time. It is like adult circumstances to want will be submitted soon the album to record company was at stake, Dylan and listen to the finished album is the manner in which it was said that stand In response to it, you can also borrow the power of liquor ( singing voice but it is such a feeling) and I like had at once recording.

But not only Dylan’s voice, there are many take even that could not be complete response rate to listen to this time appeared in session sound source, it seems like playing you deserve to hear from those of failure take appeared at the end of last year. Moreover, I’m fun of Dylan session sound unique atmosphere also is the difference between every take. Among them, surprise in the album called “Black Crow Blues” which he debuted a piano playing talking had been tried in the usual guitar in the initial take. The song has been recorded by the end of the session, I might here to have a try to OK take on things and in (also received with advice of producer maybe) piano Dylan felt the Nitsumari in recording have been two of the take is might.
In the same way, “I Do not Believe You (She Acts Like We Never Have Met)” is also a place in the early take that had been played by feel close to the album of Dylan atmosphere of up to it, a more innovative by changing the arrangement is but it is indescribably interesting know that it had been changed to playing talking. And from that point, “I Shall Be Free No. 10” is something which the session was repeatedly played in tired of your state (laughs) that situation Dylan also indeed closer to the end, Dylan of tension is completely different by the take. Omakeni which take also I think because there was a up down in his song, it was plight and called to the album eventually by connecting the two takes.
The fact is that this that classic in the session “Mr. Tambourine Man” was also recorded, but began to take one that would be cut immediately, which is now excavated, turned good to join until there was Jack Elliott in teacher not hear only in loose play it (laughs) complete take 2 exerts is currently Released, but here is recording in mono mix from acetate. Then you’ll be able to enjoy this outtakes in analog Chick texture in a more U~omi.

Recording from the acetate can not remain in “Mr. Tambourine ~”. Was unreleased in the last year excavation sound source “All I Really Want To Do” also I have enjoyed in the unedited complete version from acetate. This song seems to have become the OK in one take, here to listen to the full version of and are jamming the Dylan places song, and chopped it is a surprise because he was raised tailoring the opening number of the album. The place to be overlaying more take it normally, well each and I think is what you decide in this take. Standard and not an exaggeration to say “It Is not Me, and Babe” is has been recorded in early in the session, but Waruagaki version that is take one that is now excavation was keep trying to stopped playing in the middle You can enjoy (laughs).
In this way, not only just to put together a sound source that appeared at the end of last year, also in combination acetate sound source that has been around from the previous, it was put together into a more complete album by take collection. Rather than the actual recording order with regard song order, another take is followed by further clarity in the form along the order of songs in the album. Of course sound quality is perfect, but still scratch noise via the LP of last year of sound source thoroughly cleanup. Everyone I appeared at the press CD limited to the culmination of the session sound source that wanted to hear in the CD title, wrapped in a package without Dylan fan satisfaction mistake in Jacquet both alongside the Royal Festival Hall Live!

昨年末に話題となったもう一つのレア音源、それは「ANOTHER SIDE OF BOB DYLAN」のセッションです。リアル・フォーク時代の終結と文字通りの新生ディランの姿を刻み込んだアルバムはある種の問題作だったと言えるかもしれません。実際ディランの歴史はこの後にさらに大きな飛躍(エレクトリック化)が待ち構えている訳であり、歌詞の劇的な変化の一方でまだ伴奏はアコースティック・ギターの弾き語りで録音したのですから。しかしここに収録された曲は後にさまざまなアーティストにカバーされた「My Back Pages」やディラン自身も長年ライブで演奏し続けた「It Ain’t Me, Babe」といった名曲があったのですから、やはり無視できない、むしろ重要とすら言える存在のアルバムであることはディラン・ファンの誰もが認知しているのではないでしょうか。
しかもこのアルバムですが、何と一日のセッションで一気にレコーディングされるという離れ業からまとめられています。後にも先にも、ディランが一日でアルバムを完成させてしまったのはこの時だけ。それはレコード会社にアルバムを早く提出してしまいたいという大人の事情が絡んでいたようですが、出来上がったアルバムを聴くとディランはそれに受けて立つと言った様子であり、お酒の力も借りて(歌声がそんな感じですよね)一気に録音してしまったようなのです。

しかしディランの声だけでなく、今回登場したセッション音源を聴くと完奏できなかったテイクも多々あり、それらの失敗テイクの中から聴くに値する演奏が昨年末に登場したように思えます。しかもテイクごとに雰囲気が違うのもディランのセッション音源ならではの楽しみですよね。中でもアルバムでは彼がピアノ弾き語りを初披露した「Black Crow Blues」が初期テイクではいつものギターで試されていたというサプライズ。この曲はセッションの終盤で録音されており、ここに収録された二つのテイクで煮詰まりを感じたディランが(もしかしたらプロデューサーの助言も受けて)ピアノでトライしてOKテイクをものにしたのかもしれません。
同じように「I Don’t Believe You (She Acts Like We Never Have Met)」も初期のテイクではそれまでのアルバムのディランの雰囲気に近い感じで演奏されていたところ、アレンジを変えてもっと斬新な弾き語りに変えていたことが解るのは何とも面白いですよね。その点「I Shall Be Free No. 10」はセッションが終盤に近づいてディランもさすがにお疲れなご様子(笑)そんな状況で演奏を繰り返したものだから、テイクによってディランのテンションが全然違います。おまけにどのテイクも彼の歌にアップダウンがあったからでしょうか、結局二つのテイクをつなげてアルバムに収録するという有様でした。
実はこのセッションであの名曲「Mr. Tambourine Man」も録音されていたのですが、今回発掘されたすぐにカットされてしまうテイク1を始め、師匠でもあったジャック・エリオットまで加わって酔いが回ったルーズな演奏にしか聴こえません(苦笑)完奏したテイク2は現在リリース済ですが、ここではアセテートからのモノ・ミックスにて収録。よりウォーミーでアナログチックな質感でこのアウトテイクを楽しんでいただけることでしょう。

そのアセテートからの収録は「Mr. Tambourine~」に留まりません。昨年発掘された音源には未収録だった「All I Really Want To Do」もアセテートからの未編集コンプリート・バージョンにて収めています。この曲は1テイクでOKとなったようですが、ここでの完全版を聴くとディランが所々歌をつっかえており、それを切り刻んでアルバムのオープニング・ナンバーに仕立て上げたのだから驚きです。本来ならもっとテイクを重ねるべきところを、よくぞこのテイクで決めたものですよね。スタンダードといっても過言ではない「It Ain’t Me, Babe」はセッションの序盤で録音されていますが、今回発掘されたテイク1は途中で演奏が止まったのに続けようとしたという悪あがきバージョンが楽しめます(笑)。
こうして昨年末に登場した音源をまとめるだけに留まらず、以前から出回っていたアセテート音源も組み合わせ、よりコンプリートなアルバム別テイク集へとまとめ上げました。曲順に関しても実際の録音順ではなく、アルバムの曲順に沿った形でさらに解りやすく別テイクが続きます。もちろん音質は完璧ですが、やはり昨年の音源のLPを経由したスクラッチノイズは徹底的にクリーンナップ。ロイヤル・フェスティバル・ホールのライブと並んで誰もがCDで聴きたかったセッション音源の集大成がタイトル、ジャケ共にディラン・ファン満足間違いなしのパッケージに包まれた限定のプレスCDにて登場します!
