Artist:	DYLAN, BOB
Title:	Oh Mercy
Label:	4 MEN WITH BEARDS
Format:	LP
Price:	$21.00
Catalog #:	4M 815LP

"Released in 1989, Oh Mercy is often considered to be Dylan's greatest comeback record, as it came after a long string of badly reviewed albums. Produced by Daniel Lanois in New Orleans, it was hailed by most critics as a triumph. The swampy, organic and hazy atmospheric production was unlike anything ever released by Dylan before and as Robert Christgau of The Village Voice wrote, 'Daniel Lanois's understated care and easy beat suit [Dylan's] casual ways, and three or four songs might sound like something late at night on the radio, or after the great flood.' Oh Mercy, featuring standout tracks such as 'Ring Them Bells,' 'Most Of The Time', 'Man In The Long Black Coat' and 'Shooting Star', is Dylan's best chart record in years reaching #30 on the Billboard charts in the US and #6 in the UK."

Title:	The Best of Bob Dylan's Theme Time Radio Hour
Label:	CHROME DREAMS (UK)
Format:	2CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	CHROME 5019CD

"In May 2006, Bob Dylan's voice floated over the airwaves and into people's homes via the medium of radio. Nothing unusual there of course -- Bob's been on the radio for more than 45 years. But what was different this time was that Dylan was the host of the show, the DJ, the one playing the records by artists other than himself. Over the year that followed, Bob was back every week with a further choice of songs, hand-picked from his own collection and covering virtually every genre ever invented. This 2CD set takes one track from each of the 52 shows that Dylan presented, and in doing so gives a fascinating glimpse into the tastes and passions of a man who himself has become a musical style all of his own." Featuring tracks from the Carter Family, Ruth Brown, Bessie Smith, Big Joe Turner, Duke Ellington, Blind Willie Johnson, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, Slim Gaillard, Carl Perkins, Lead Belly & dozens more.

Title:	John Wesley Harding
Label:	COLUMBIA
Format:	LP
Price:	$21.00
Catalog #:	PC 9604HLP

Dylan's eighth studio album, released in 1967. 180 gram repro reissue. "A calm, reflective album, John Wesley Harding strips away all of the wilder tendencies of Dylan's rock albums -- even the then-unreleased Basement Tapes he made the previous year -- but it isn't a return to his folk roots. If anything, the album is his first serious foray into country, but only a handful of songs, such as 'I'll Be Your Baby Tonight,' are straight country songs. Instead, John Wesley Harding is informed by the rustic sound of country, as well as many rural myths, with seemingly simple songs like 'All Along the Watchtower,' 'I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine,' and 'The Wicked Messenger' revealing several layers of meaning with repeated plays." -- All Music Guide

Title:	Bob Dylan
Label:	SUNDAZED
Format:	LP
Price:	$19.00
Catalog #:	SC 5120LP

"The baby-faced Bob Dylan staring out from the cover of his self-titled 1962 debut album would soon become the musical spokesman of a generation. Instant Dylan landmarks like 'Man Of Constant Sorrow' and 'Highway 51' --and gutwrenching versions of folk/blues classics like 'Baby, Let Me Follow You Down' and 'See That My Grave Is Kept Clean' -- made the abundant talents of this legend-to-be obvious. Forty years later, the album -- now available in its ultra-rare, original mono mix on 180-gram vinyl -- stands as a revered monument to the timeless genius of Bob Dylan."

Title:	Self Portrait
Label:	SUNDAZED
Format:	2LP
Price:	$34.00
Catalog #:	SC 5122LP

"'One of the most controversial albums in Bob Dylan's remarkable catalog, the 1970 double-LP Self Portrait continues to exercise a considerable fascination amongst Dylan devotees. Released on the heels of the artist's game-changing Nashville Skyline, Self Portrait offered a quirky assortment of studio and live tracks, encompassing Dylan originals as well as covers of familiar pop and folk numbers, recorded with an all-star musical cast. At the time of its original release, the sprawling, unconventional Self Portrait generated an immense amount of discussion and disagreement amongst Dylan's admirers. The ongoing controversy surrounding the album has been fueled over the years by Dylan himself. At various times, Dylan has defended Self Portrait as a heartfelt artistic statement, dismissed it as a joke and described it as a concerted effort to escape the pressures of his unwanted status as the voice of a generation. Whatever the artist's actual intentions, Self Portrait retains a unique niche in the hearts of Dylan devotees, and is often cited as an early landmark in the birth of alternative country. Self Portrait's highlights include the Dylan originals 'Wigwam,' later featured in the Wes Anderson film The Royal Tenenbaums; 'Living the Blues,' subsequently covered by artists ranging from Leon Redbone to Antony Hegarty; and 'The Mighty Quinn (Quinn the Eskimo),' which Manfred Mann had turned into a British Invasion hit in 1968. The latter song is one of a quartet of live tracks drawn from Dylan's legendary performance with The Band at the historic Isle of Wight festival, along with memorable versions of the Dylan standards 'Like a Rolling Stone,' 'Minstrel Boy' and 'She Belongs to Me.' Also featured are Dylan's readings of a variety of outside material, ranging from his iconic interpretation of the rural folk song 'Copper Kettle' to his distinctive takes on such familiar tunes as Paul Simon's 'The Boxer,' Gordon Lightfoot's 'Early Mornin' Rain' and the vintage Everly Brothers hits 'Let It Be Me' and 'Take a Message to Mary.' Sundazed has restored this one-of-a-kind release to its original double-LP format. Mastered from the original analog master tapes, the album is pressed on high-quality, high-definition vinyl, with meticulously reproduced original gatefold cover art."

Title:	John Wesley Harding
Label:	SUNDAZED
Format:	LP
Price:	$19.00
Catalog #:	SC 5123LP

"Ranking near the top of anyone's list of Dylan's masterpieces, this post-motorcycle-accident career-turning-point finds Dylan veering from the razor-edged desperation of 'All Along The Watchtower' to the gentle, back-porch sway of 'I'll Be Your Baby Tonight' -- and all points in between. Back at last, in its ultra-rare original mono mix, this landmark LP -- cut with the cream of Nashville's studio cats and generally credited as a blueprint for the era's country-rock movement -- sizzles on Sundazed 180-gram vinyl, as always, the industry standard."

Title:	Nashville Skyline
Label:	SUNDAZED
Format:	LP
Price:	$19.00
Catalog #:	SC 5124LP

"For a Bob Dylan album -- and one that many consider to be his best -- Nashville Skyline doesn't mess around with ambiguity. It's a country album, plain and simple, with Dylan abandoning his fabled talk-sing voice and evangelical message for a soothing, down-home country croon. The new style was a perfect fit for some of Dylan's strongest material ever, including 'Lay Lady Lay,' 'Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You' and 'I Threw It All Away.' There's also a superb duet with Johnny Cash on 'Girl from the North Country' that, along with The Byrds' earlier Sweetheart of the Rodeo LP, officially breaks the champagne bottle over a brand new musical genre: country-rock. From the original Columbia Records stereo masters!"
