In the light of the latest in the Official Bootlegs being announced as 'More Blood, More Tracks - Official Bootleg Vol 14' people are already getting  excited and the guys over at Aquarium Drunkard have just posted this fascinating article:
More Blood, More Tracks – The Bootleg Series Vol. 14the latest slab of previously unreleased Bob Dylan recordings, lands in early November. The six-disc collection features the complete New York City recording sessions for Blood On The Tracks, giving listeners a fly-on-the-wall look at the creation of one of Dylan’s bona fide masterpieces. In some ways, though, the songwriter has never stopped creating Blood’s opening track, “Tangled Up In Blue.” Onstage, the song has been an ever-changing landscape, a canvas for Dylan that’s never quite complete, lyrically, musically or otherwise. It’s a living, breathing thing. “You’ve got yesterday, today and tomorrow all in the same room, and there’s very little you can’t imagine not happening,” he once said of the song. In other words, you can see the song from many different points of view.

Truly fascinating 

Of course with the six CD deluxe collection taking advance bookings for what will be a limited edition at £25 per volume a total outlay of nearly £150 may seem a tad steep but as per usual the price offer stands if it should transpire it costs anything lower on publication you will get your money back but I wouldn't hold your breath. Does it occur to anyone that they are actually waiting to see how many folks order at the full price before deciding!? Call me a cynic but that doesn't strike me as the most moral way of pricing your product  . . . . but hey we're probably all dumb enough to shell out anyway!
