Columbia Records will release Bootleg Series Vol 10: Another Self Portrait (1969-1971) by Bob Dylan on 27 August 2013.

This latest volume of the long-running Bootleg Series includes unreleased recordings, demos and alternate takes drawn mainly from the 1970 studio recording sessions that resulted in Self Portrait and New Morning albums. In total 35 rarities and previously unreleased recordings including a previously unavailable version of Only A Hobo and the demo version of When I Paint My Masterpiece.

Another Self Portrait will be offered in two-disc and four-disc configurations, with the latter taking the form of a deluxe box set, which will include for the first time the complete performance by Bob Dylan and The Band from the Isle of Wight Festival on August 31, 1969. The box set comes in a slip case and will also include the newly remastered version of the 1970 Self Portrait album, in its entirety with original sequencing, in addition to two hardcover books.

@Hedley , the tracks on the 2cd version really bear little resemblance to their Self Portrait incarnations, they are either overdub free or demos , and the unreleased tracks are OUTSTANDING , for the most part.
Don’t let the original LP put you off, this is much better , a superb release.

Hedley

Steve, very much appreciate the update. I have been listening to the tracks on NPR and still can’t really get to grips with it.
I guess this will be the one I skip. Oh well, back to the mono box set.

This IS THE release of 2013 for me, Self Portrait was ahead of its time , As since almost every major artist ( inc John Lennon ” Rock n Roll + Paul McCartney ,Three albums of Covers ) have Recorded their fave ## songs from the past . Really Like Dylans Voice From this era also 1970/71 .

Peter

What’s wrong with a strangled frog? Actually, I agree… Self Portrait may not have had all the expected hallmarks of a Dylan album but it included a bunch of enjoyable, simply sung songs.

Hedley

Lipstick on a pig

Cant fathom that Self Portrait merits any attention in the otherwise excellent bootleg series let alone a pricey Super deluxe edition. The two disc version would have to cruise in around $12.00 for me to even consider taking on a “completest” position

This is good news isn’t it? I love New Morning but think parts of Self Portrait are good, but that it feels more like a quickly thrown together rag bag of odds ‘n’ ends.

Looks like a nice set too. Complete Basement Tapes can’t be that far off? Can it? That’s what I’ve been saying since the first Vol 1-3 Bootleg set. :D
