Description:

Bob Dylan's "Travellin' Thru, 1967 - 1969: The Bootleg Series, Vol. 15" (analog), featuring the legendary sessions with Johnny Cash, includes 47 previously unreleased tracks, and was released in 1991 as "Bootleg Series Vol. 1 - 3 Since then, the series has grown for more than a quarter of a century, and each release has been highly acclaimed. In addition to outtakes from "John Wesley Harding," "Nashville Skyline," and "Self Portrait," the album contains 47 previously unreleased tracks, including the legendary Bob Dylan/Johnny Cash session at the Nashville studio in 1969, which is being released for the first time. Disc 1 contains alternate versions recorded at the John Wesley Harding sessions (October 17 and November 6, 1967) and the Nashville Skyline sessions (February 13-14, 1969), which Dylan conducted at Columbia Studio A in Nashville. The album contains the first newly released song "The Lost City". Included here is a new song, "Western Road" (an outtake from Nashville Skyline), which is being released for the first time.Discs 2 and 3 focus on Dylan's collaboration with American music great Johnny Cash. Here are the Columbia Studio A sessions that everyone was eagerly awaiting the release of, and the live performance at the Ryman Auditorium (May 1, 1969), where the first "Johnny Cash Show" (June 7, 1969, ABC TV broadcast) was recorded. The last part of disc 3 is a live performance from May 1, 1970. Disc 3 concludes with a recording made with Grammy Award-winning bluegrass banjo legend Earl Scruggs on May 17, 1970 for the PBS television special "Earl Scruggs: His Family and Friends" (broadcast in January 1971). The album also includes recordings for a PBS television special, Earl Scruggs: His Family and Friends, which aired in January 1971. When considering the evolution of Bob Dylan's music, 1967 was a year of great and surprising change. 1965-1966 saw Dylan release his cutting-edge trilogy, Bling It All Back Home, Remembering Highway 61, and Blonde on Blonde, but after a motorcycle accident in July 1966, Dylan's music began to decline before the public. After a motorcycle accident in July 1966, he disappeared from the public eye. Meanwhile, pop music of the time took a more complex, surreal, psychedelic turn, spending long hours in the studio trying to follow in Dylan's footsteps.Dylan recorded "Blonde on Blonde" in Nashville in February 1966 with a full band behind him. However, when he recorded his next album in Nashville in the fall of 1967, he kept the sound minimal and simple with just Dylan (guitar, vocals, harmonica), Charlie McCoy (bass), and Kenny Batley (drums). In the liner notes of "Travelin' Thru (Bootleg Series Vol. 15)," Colin Scott writes: "The three of us were the only three musicians on the album, and we were the only three musicians on the record who could play together.
