Una buena noticia para todos los admiradores de Bob Dylan. A partir del 6 de Noviembre estará disponibles para el público la colección completa de Basement Tapes.

La colección consta de seis discos que contiene 138 canciones, de los cuales 30 son inéditas hasta el día de hoy.

Como se recuerda el disco fue lanzado originalmente en 1975. Dylan grabó junto con su banda ( luego conocida como The Crackers) más 100 pistas musicales, algunas de las cuales fueron entregadas a otros artistas como Manfred Mann (“Quinn the Eskimo”), The Byrds (“You Ain’t Goin’ Nowhere”) y  Peter, Paul and Mary (“Too Much of Nothing”). La revista Rolling Stone por su parte ha señalado que los discos incluyen una versión antigua (y con letra distinta) de "I Shall Be Released"  y versiones country de  clásicas canciones como "Blowin in the wind", "It Ain't Me Babe" y "One Too Many Mornings".

La edición de lujo  del álbum incluye un libro de 120 páginas donde se reúnen notas del disco y fotografías nunca antes vistas. También estará disponible una versión más sencilla llamada The Basement Tapes Raw, la misma que incluye 38 pistas  en dos discos o tres discos long play. Desde ya se pueden hacer los pedidos.

Cabe mencionar que el lanzamiento de este disco coincide con el de Lost On The River: The New Basment Tapes, que junta a importantes figura del rock-folk como Elvis Costello, My Morning Jacket's Jim James, T-Bone Burnett, entre otros. Ellos crean música para 24 letras pertenecientes a Dylan y descubiertas recientemente. 

A continuación compartimos el contenido de los discos:
