Bob Dylan Center members are invited to an exclusive online advance listening session featuring selections from “The 1974 Live Recordings,” an epic 431-track collection of Dylan’s landmark performances with The Band. This 50th-anniversary box set, set for official release on Friday, Sept. 20, features 27 CDs of every professionally recorded show from the 1974 tour, initially documented in part on the “Before the Flood” live album. Now, fans can revisit the entirety of those legendary performances, and Bob Dylan Center members will be among the very first to hear some box-set highlights.The 1974 Tour marked Dylan’s first time touring live in eight years and reunited him with The Band. They performed 30 dates in 42 days—often playing two sets per day—before an average audience of 18,500, setting a new standard for what rock concerts could look and sound like. Rolling Stone magazine journalist Ben Fong-Torres described these concerts as “searing and soaring, unified and precise…excellent in itself.”
Fong-Torres will join Bob Dylan Center Director Steven Jenkins for the listening session, recalling the tour’s extraordinary music and electrified atmosphere and sharing never-before-heard recordings of “Song to Woody,” “It Ain’t Me Babe,” “Lay Lady Lay” and other classics and deep cuts.
