BIAB: Volume two consists mostly of those songs available in
1967 and subsequently released on the official Basement
Tapes album, but many of these versions have never been heard
before by the general public, even though they have been known of
for years. This is the core of the Basement Tapes. The nice thing
about this disc is that is tends to present the multiple takes more
or less in order, so that for the first time we actually have both
versions of "Quinn the Eskimo" and all three takes of "Open the
Door Homer" on one disc. Also, the multiple versions present
further evidence that these songs were probably intended to be
released as part of an album at one time or another.
AMG: Although half the material is included on official
releases, the other half makes this disc essential.
