rmd: A nicely organized CD with two complete recordings of
'61 Dylan tapes. The sound is very good overall, better on the East
Orange cuts then the New York cuts. This CD contains a booklet with
a description of the circumstances of these recordings in German,
French, Italian, and English. Despite peculiar wording, the
information is gotten across, and the packaging is not skimpy.
(Anthony Kapolka)
ISIS: The Carnegie recording is "overcooked" and sounds harsh.
