Vinyl and Tape Releases (1972)
A Tribute To Woody Guthrie Part One
Various Artists - "A Tribute To Woody Guthrie Part One" - stereo vinyl and tape releases, Columbia/CBS (various catalogue numbers) (Worldwide), Jan 1972:
|
|
Bob's songs were recorded live with The Band,
Carnegie Hall, New York, 20 Jan 1968 (afternoon and evening shows) at
concerts to benefit the US Committee to Combat Huntington's Disease (CCHD). The
third concert was at the Hollywood Bowl on 12 Sep 1970 when Bob was not
present. The original record release was on two separate LPs on different
record labels - R-0064 to R-0067 were on Part One (Columbia), R-0068
was on Part Two (Warner Bros), see below. The order of the songs on
the LPs is not chronological with Carnegie Hall on Part One and
Hollywood Bowl on Part Two - the three shows have been edited into a
"complete performance" so that performances from each appear on each album.
Even though Bob is not credited on the Part Two sleeve, he does
appear on the ensemble song This Land Is
Your Land, although verse 6, which Bob sings, has been edited out of the
released performance, presumably for contractual reasons. Thanks to Charlie Steiner for scans of the concert programme for Carnegie Hall, New York, on 20 Jan 1968. This is a typed letter-sized sheet, and was presumably the same for both the afternoon and evening shows. The beautiful fold-out 36" x 24" poster was included only with the earliest US and Canadian copies of both releases, Columbia KC 31171 (Part One) and Warner Bros BS 2568 (Part Two). Bob appeared with The Band at Carnegie Hall, New York, Jan 1968, for three songs, I Ain't Got No Home, Dear Mrs. Roosevelt and The Grand Coulee Dam, and also participated in the ensemble finale songs This Land Is Your Land and This Train Is Bound For Glory. There was also a show at the Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles, CA, in 1970, but Bob did not participate. Highlights from these three shows were released in 1972 on Columbia (Part One with the three afternoon show performances from Bob and The Band but only a truncated This Train Is Bound For Glory) and Warner Bros (Part Two with This Land Is Your Land, omitting the verse sung by Bob), with songs from the three shows spread over both releases out of performance order. As these releases are unsatisfactory and omit Bob and The Band's 1968 evening performances a new complete release of the shows is well overdue. Thanks to Harold Lepidus for information in Dec 2013 that Bill Pagel of Boblinks fame was working with Nora Guthrie, daughter of Woody, and Bear Family Records to release all three of the 1968 and 1970 shows of the Tribute To Woody Guthrie in full. This project appears to have borne some fruit with the release of the 3CD boxed set Woody Guthrie: The Tribute Concerts, Bear Family BCD 17329 (Germany), 18 Sep 2017, see below! |

 Columbia KC 31171 (USA)/Warner Bros BS 2586 (USA) - poster scan by Manuel García Jara |
|
||
Part One (Columbia/CBS) contains:
R-0064 I Ain't Got No
Home (Woody Guthrie) - Bob and The
Band, afternoon show (Side 1, track 6)
This performance also appears on a Columbia US promo EP, see below, as well as
on the Japanese Mr. D's Collection #3
promo CD (see 1993)
and the
Capitol/EMI boxed set The Band: A Musical History (see
2005).
R-0065 Dear Mrs. Roosevelt
(Woody Guthrie)
- Bob and The Band, afternoon show (Side 2, track 3)
R-0066 The Grand Coulee
Dam (Woody Guthrie) - Bob and The Band,
afternoon show (Side 2, track 6)
This track also appears on four 1972 Columbia compilations (listed below on this
page), the Japanese Mr. D's Collection #3
promo CD (see 1993), and is
also available on the 2001 Japanese live compilation Bob
Dylan Live 1961-2000: Thirty Nine Years Of Great Concert Performances,
see 2001.
R-0067 This Train Is
Bound For Glory (adapted Woody Guthrie) - Arlo Guthrie and ensemble, afternoon show (Side 1, track 1)
I misreported this song before - it is truncated to 0:29 on both the original
1972 album and the
1989 single CD release,
with only the Arlo
Guthrie introduction to the song remaining (Side 1 track 1). I thought Bob and The Band
were accompanying Arlo
but the actual song with their vocal contributions (if any) is omitted! Glen Dundas in
"Tangled Up In Tapes" (later published as just "Tangled") attributes this to the
evening show, but Dean Chambers has tapes of both shows and says it is from the
afternoon show. This is supported by Michael Krogsgaard in "Master of the
Tracks", who attributes R-0064 - R-0067 to the afternoon show. See comments
for the 2017 Bear Family boxed set below.
R-0064 and R-0066 are now part of the 42 rarities included for download with the Aug 2006 Apple iTunes Bob Dylan Collection, see Online Performances (Other).
Columbia KC 31171 (USA):
 Columbia KC 31171 (USA) - front with timing strip, scan by Manuel García Jara (promo copy) |
As in other countries except Australia and Israel, this release has a gatefold sleeve, while the record comes in a picture inner sleeve with 18 pictures from the concerts. The promo copy shown has a timing strip on the front of the sleeve but the records have regular commercial Columbia labels (Columbia had at this time discontinued using white promo labels, although they resumed them again in the mid 1970s). Two credits details of the rear sleeve are shown for comparison with the UK and other releases: Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger appear through the courtesy of Columbia Records, and the songs by Woody Guthrie are "BMI except where listed". |

The tape cartridge is dark red with a single wrap-around label. The copy shown is missing a slipcase. It comes from the collection of Hans Seegers, now in the care of Arie de Reus.
There was a US cassette release for Part Two, but I don't yet have details of a Part One US cassette release.
Columbia KC 31171 (Canada):
 Columbia KC 31171 (Canada) - front of gatefold sleeve, scan by Manuel García Jara |

The tape cartridge is dark red with a single wrap-around label. It comes in a black slipcase with front and rear cut-outs to show the cartridge label details. The slipcase was made by Columbia Records of Canada Ltd. and has English and French text.
CBS 64861 (UK):
 CBS 64861 (UK) - front of gatefold sleeve, scan by Manuel García Jara |
The UK CBS release also comes in a gatefold sleeve with a
picture inner sleeve, printed in England by Shorewood Packaging Co. Ltd. The same two credits details of the rear sleeve are
shown for comparison with the US release: here Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger appear
through the courtesy of CBS Records, and the BMI credit for the songs
by Woody Guthrie is missing. The record has orange CBS labels. A CBS UK 1974-75 Catalogue owned by Ronald Born lists the LP release, CBS 64861, but not a cassette or 8-track release, so these may not have existed. |

 CBS S 64861 (NL) - front of gatefold sleeve, scan by Manuel García Jara |
This album was also released with a gatefold sleeve and an inner sleeve with pictures of the artists. The sleeve was printed in Holland and the outside is laminated. The front has a similar but different logo from that of the UK release, with "S 64861" instead of just "64861". There is also a small "B" in a white circle at top right of the rear sleeve. Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger appear through the courtesy of CBS Records, but unlike the UK sleeve, the rear still has the text "All songs by WOODY GUTHRIE are BMI except where noted". The copyright text at the bottom of the rear sleeve is also different from that of the UK release. The record was made in Holland and has orange CBS labels with the Dutch "STEMRA" logo. Curiously, the label designs of Side 1 and Side 2 are different: Side 1 has the tracklist in continuous text, but on Side 2 the tracks have separate lines. Copies with other label variants may exist. | |||

The Spanish Part One release was made by

George Jackson singles, see
here) for CBS Spain and printed by Offset ALG. It has a
gatefold sleeve with notes in Spanish written by Diego Manrique. There is
also a card inner sleeve with 18 pictures taken from the
concert. The record has orange CBS labels. The two credits details of the Spanish rear sleeve are the same as for the US release: Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger appear through the courtesy of Columbia Records, and the songs by Woody Guthrie are "BMI except where listed". |

 CBS/Sony SOPL 29 (Japan) - front of gatefold sleeve with obi, scan by Wil Gielen (early 1974 release) |
CBS/Sony in Japan released Part One twice,
first in early 1974 with a red obi with price ¥2,000 and secondly in late
1974/early 1975 with a silver obi with price ¥2,200. Both releases have a
card picture inner sleeve and a four-page insert in English and Japanese. The
promo copy shown is from early 1974 and has black/white CBS/Sony promo labels,
the commercial copy shown is the second release and has orange/cream
CBS/Sony labels (the first release commercial labels are the same). The two credits details of the Japanese rear sleeve are the same as for the US release: Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger appear through the courtesy of Columbia Records, and the songs by Woody Guthrie are "BMI except where listed". |

 CBS SBP 234096 (Australia) - front scan by Manuel García Jara |
This Australian release comes in a
single sleeve, laminated on the front only. There is also no picture inner
sleeve or inserts. The record has orange CBS labels. The two credits details of the Australian rear sleeve mix those of the US and UK releases: Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger appear through the courtesy of Columbia Records, but the BMI credit for the songs by Woody Guthrie is missing! |

Thanks to Fred and Sabine Muller for scans of the South African release, CBS ASF 1680, which came in a gatefold sleeve. The record also has orange CBS labels. "Columbia" has been covered by a sticker with "CBS" on the inner sleeve text. The two credits details of the South African rear sleeve mix those of the US and UK releases, but the opposite way round from those of the Australian sleeve: Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger appear through the courtesy of CBS Records, but the BMI credit for the songs by Woody Guthrie is still present! |

 CBS 64861 (Israel) - front scan by Manuel García Jara |
Like the Australian release, the rare Israeli release of this charity album has a single, not a gatefold sleeve, and does not include an insert with pictures. The sleeve is laminated on the front only. It has the same front as the UK release with an identical CBS logo, but the rear sleeve is unique to Israel: it has no photo, but includes the liner notes that other albums have on the inner gatefold, plus the tracklist and credits. The rear sleeve has two white folded-over flaps. This must be an error because the usual text "Manufactured and distributed in Israel..." may be hidden by the bottom white flap. Bob Dylan appears through the courtesy of CBS Records, and the BMI credit for the songs by Woody Guthrie is again missing. The record was made in Israel and has orange CBS labels. |

A Tribute To Woody Guthrie Part Two
Various Artists - "A Tribute To Woody Guthrie Part Two" - stereo vinyl and tape releases, Warner Bros (various catalogue numbers) (Worldwide), Apr 1972:
|
|
The three page letter with the CCHD logo (Committee to Combat Huntington's Disease) is dated April 1970 and it is signed by Marjorie Guthrie, Woody's widow. She talks about the foundation of CCHD and about the next concert at the Hollywood Bowl. These were concerts to benefit CCHD and these releases were charity albums, released not long after the other great charity album of 1972, The Concert For Bangladesh. They were released with the help of two of the most important record labels, Columbia and Warner Bros. For this reason, each album has an advertisement for the other release on the rear of the outer gatefold sleeve. Also, the shared poster (see above) has both logos, Columbia and Warner Bros. |
|
 CCID letter from Marjorie Guthrie from Apr 1970, page 2 - scan by Manuel García Jara |
|
Part Two (Warner Bros) contains:
R-0068 This Land Is
Your Land (Woody Guthrie)
- Odetta and Arlo Guthrie with ensemble including Bob and The Band, afternoon show
Bob is present on guitar throughout the song and sings verse 6. However, the
released performance is faded out before verse 6!
This may be because the
contractual arrangement between Columbia and Warner Bros did not allow Bob to
appear explicitly on the Part Two album. It's also noticeable that
although the members of The Band, who were signed to Capitol, are listed on
the rear sleeve, Bob is only listed as having been present on Part One,
which was released by Columbia Records.

There is a 12" 6-page insert with lyrics and information. - The inner sleeve is identical to that of other worldwide Warner releases, different from the inner sleeve of Part One with different artists. The record shown is a promo and has blue Warner Bros promo labels. |

A Tribute To Woody Guthrie Parts One and Two
Various Artists - "A Tribute To Woody Guthrie Parts One & Two", promotional 2LP set, CBS/Sony SOPL-29/Warner-Pioneer P-8202W (Japan), 1974:
These records were separately released by two different companies, but this extremely rare release is the only one with those two albums packaged together. It is a promotional only set, and it was never commercially released at that time (a 2LP set was released by Warner Bros in the USA and elsewhere from 1976 onwards).

This promo 2LP set includes a folder with two flaps on the inside to hold the albums, the two volumes of the Tribute to Woody Guthrie and two promotional sheets. The folder is black, made of good textured paper. The outside of this folder has titles of both volumes and companies logos in silver text and in relief; on the inside there are two flaps, again with titles and logos. There are two separate A-4 promo sheets with typed Japanese text: one for CBS/Sony (two pages) and another for Warner (three pages).
The first volume, A Tribute To Woody Guthrie, Part One (CBS/Sony SOPL-29), is identical to the promo copy shown above, with a first release red obi, the picture inner sleeve, the 12" 4-page insert and a record with promo white and black CBS/Sony labels.
The second volume, A Tribute To Woody Guthrie, Part Two (Warner-Pioneer P-8202W), is identical to the promo copy shown above, including the obi, the picture inner sleeve, the 12" 6-page insert and a record with promo blue Warner Bros labels.

"Homenaje
A Woody Guthrie [Tribute To Woody Guthrie Parts I & II]" - Warner Bros/Hispavox
500-193/4 (Spain), 1977:
 Warner Bros/Hispavox 500-193/4 (Spain) - front scan by Manuel García Jara |
This double album was manufactured in Spain in 1977 by Hispavox for Warner Bros. This set, titled Homenaje A Woody Guthrie on the spine, lengüeta (languette) and record labels, is actually Tribute To Woody Guthrie Parts One & Two. Part One was released in Spain by CBS in 1972 (see above), but, as far as Manuel knows, Part Two was never released in Spain by Warner Bros. as in other countries. The outer gatefold sleeve is laminated - it has the usual worldwide design but it has copyright text in Spanish at bottom of rear. There is an error - it says "599-193 (Caras A & B) and 500-194 (Cara B)" instead of "(Caras C & D)". The sleeve has a languette ("lengüeta" in Spanish). Although the languette is typical of French records, these "tabs for sales control" were very common in Spanish records, even though they were never used for CBS records. Unlike in France, lengüetas were used in Spain for albums also, e.g. the first Spanish release of Before The Flood. |

The record labels still have the Warner Bros. Burbank Palm Tree design, some months later Hispavox in Spain changed to the "beige" design (e.g. The Last Waltz, see 1978). On the Side 2 label The Grand Coulee Dam is misprinted as "The Grand Coulle Dam".

This set has an unlaminated gatefold sleeve with the usual design on the outside and inside. The rear has copyright text at the bottom and the catalogue number at top right. The record labels still have the Warner Bros. Burbank Palm Tree design. The copyright date is "1972" on Sides 2 and 4 and "1976" on Sides 1 and 3, but these compilations were not released in Europe before 1977; e.g. Tusk (Fleetwood Mac, 1979) is "WB 66 088" and The Last Waltz (The Band, 1978) is "WB 66 076". The catalogue numbers used by Warner Bros. in Germany (the headquarters of Warner Bros. in Europe) were "WB" plus five digits starting with "5" (WB 5_ _ _ _) for single albums and "WB" plus five digits starting with "6" ("WB 6 _ _ _ _") for double or triple albums.

Various Artist Vinyl Releases with Woody Tribute Tracks (1972)
These vinyl releases contain R-0064 I Ain't Got No Home or R-0066 The Grand Coulee Dam from the Columbia/CBS release A Tribute To Woody Guthrie Part One.
Various Artists - "Playback" - 7" stereo EP, Columbia AS 31 (USA), 1972:
 Columbia AS 31 (USA) - front of booklet, scan by Hans Seegers |
This stereo EP is available in two sleeve variations, one has seven occurrences of "Playback" on both sides, the other has only six on the reverse. It came with a four page insert, a 16-page booklet, a feedback form and a pre-paid envelope to send the form back to Columbia. Hans Seegers says "In the early 1970s Columbia set up an experimental programme called 'Playback'. For the first time in their recording history they were going to ask their consumers to help them select what sounds and which records were worth pursuing and promoting. For $3.00 consumers could join this programme and would receive at least ten 7-inch, 33 rpm samplers a year containing unreleased or just-released songs. After listening to each sampler they were to let Columbia know what music turned them on or off. The samplers came together with newsletters featuring articles written by and about producers and recording artists. Only one EP containing a track by Bob Dylan was released in this series and came with the 'Playback' standard sleeve." |

This second copy once belonged to the Hudson High School (which Hudson High School I do not know). There is an envelope with three library cards on the inside of the gatefold sleeve. Apart from these details, the artwork is identical to the copy above. This copy still has the original inner sleeves, dated 1972; as well as some stamped text of the Hudson High School Media Center and some information about Bob Johnston as producer of one of the bands, there is an interesting subscription form with information about the brand new "Playback" series of Columbia Record Club: the Dylan track included in this compilation was also included in an EP of the Playback series, released also in 1972 (see above). The most important difference from the other copy shown is the record labels: they are very different in style. The record labels have shaped white "Hudson High School Media Center" labels plus a square label with library catalogue numbers on Sides 1, 3 and 5.
These compilations were released in USA, Canada, UK, Holland, Yugoslavia, Denmark and in Spain, and are similar but not identical. There were several variations of title, catalogue number, sleeves, number of records and even in the tracklist.
4 DIFFERENT TITLES: The Music People (USA, Canada and UK); Welcome The Rock People (Holland & Yugoslavia); The Music People Vols. 1, 2 & 3 (Denmark) and The Music People 1970-1973 (Spain)
6 DIFFERENT CATALOGUE NUMBERS: Columbia C3X 31280 (USA & Canada); CBS 66315 (UK); CBS S 66308 (Holland) CBS/Suzy S 66308 (Yugoslavia); CBSMF 1/2/3 (Denmark) and without reference in Spain.
4 DIFFERENT FRONTS: The "clouds in the sky" design (USA, Canada & UK); "lips and tongue" design (Holland & Yugoslavia); Danish and Spanish versions have exclusive and different designs of front.
3 DIFFERENT SLEEVES: Tri-fold sleeve (USA, Canada, UK & Holland); gatefold sleeve (Yugoslavia & Spain) and single sleeve (Denmark)
3 DIFFERENT NUMBER OF RECORDS: 3LP set in all countries, except in Denmark, released as three separate volumes, and in Spain, as a single and promo only album.
4 DIFFERENT TRACKLISTS: The purpose of this album was to include international artists, repeated in all releases, and other artists (mostly local artists), only included in some compilations. The Spanish tracklist (a single album) obviously is different: 12 tracks, six international and six Spanish artists. It doesn't includes Bob,. The other compilations have 40 tracks by 40 artists (28 of them are in all releases) and all these albums include The Grand Coulee Dam by Bob Dylan with The Band, taken from the album Tribute To Woody Guthrie (1972). There are three different tracklists with this Dylan rarity: the US tracklist (released in USA and Canada), the Dutch tracklist (released in Holland/West Germany, Yugoslavia and Denmark) and the UK tracklist (exclusive for the UK).
Thanks to the late Wim van der Mark and Hans Seegers for information and to Manuel García Jara for further information and scans.

The UK release has a tri-fold sleeve. The front and rear of the sleeve have the US "clouds in the sky" design. The front has the title in white but, unlike the US version, the artist list is in black; the rear has the title in white and tracklist in black. Like the US release, this sleeve has four grey panels with information about the tracklist. The UK release has exclusive "The Music People" green inner sleeves. The records have orange CBS labels.
The tracklist has 28 artists included in all compilations: there are four exclusive artists (Arrival, Al Stewart, Lesley Duncan and Jonathan Swift); three artists included here and on the US release, but not on the Dutch tracklist (Jake Holmes, Jimmie Spheeris and Wayne Cochran); five artists included here and on the Dutch release, but not on the US tracklist (Niemen; Fishbaugh, Fishbaugh and Zorn; Home, Argent and Titanic) However, the track performed by Argent is Hold Your Head Up in the UK release and Closer To Heaven in the Dutch album; the track by Titanic is also different - Underbird (UK) but Hanging Over in the Dutch compilation.

This is the Spanish version of the compilation The Music People, released in several countries in 1972. The Grand Coulee Dam is not included here, so it's listed only for completion; this Spanish album was released as a promo single LP only. It has a gatefold sleeve without text that looks like it has a cut-out centre, but it's printed, part of the artwork. |

The most noticeable feature is the text printed on the inner gatefold; it says in big letters that this album was published to celebrate two facts: the third anniversary of CBS in Spain and the opening of the pressing plant of CBS in Alcorcón, near to Madrid; this pressing plant was at the time the most advanced pressing plant of CBS in Europe with a capacity of 6 million records per year. This pressing plant was opened by Peter de Rougemont (CBS International vice president in charge of European operations) and Max Wyngaard (director for Spain, Switzerland and Austria). Peter de Rougemont says in this text that the Spanish pressing plant has capacity for Spain and for export records to Europe "quickly and made of high quality". After of this date several records came to Holland with "MADE IN SPAIN" on the labels, with the same typeface as the Spanish record labels but with the "STEMRA" (Dutch copyright organisation) logo.

The Dutch release again has a tri-fold sleeve. The front has a "lips and tongue" design, possibly a parody of the Rolling Stones logo; the rear is white with the tracklist. This sleeve also has four grey panels with information about the tracklist. There are two variants of the front sleeve: one has the title in violet (the most usual); the second variant, the rarest, has the title in black. The Dutch album was also sold in France and in West Germany and has German text on the rear sleeve as well as "NL Printed in Holland". One copy shown was bought in Germany and has a price sticker (DM 25). The records have orange CBS labels.
The tracklist has: 28 artists included in all compilations; two exclusive artists (Cane & Able; Emergency). The Dutch tracklist was used also in the Yugoslav and Danish releases. For other differences between the Dutch and UK/US tracklists, see the entries for these releases above.

CBS/Suzy S 66308
(Yugoslavia) - detail of inside of gatefold sleeve, scan by Manuel García Jara
The Concert For Bangla Desh was the first album with Dylan content released in the former Yugoslavia and this very rare Yugoslav version of Welcome The Rock People was the second (and the first published by CBS itself). It uses the same tracklist, title and front as the Dutch release, although the sleeve was made in Yugoslavia by Suzy Records of Zagreb (now Croatia) and the records were pressed by Helidon of Ljubljana (now Slovenia). This release had a standard folded gatefold sleeve (not tri-fold like other releases). The front is identical to the Dutch album, but the rear is completely different with images of a concert in blue and pink colours. The inside of the gatefold sleeve is also exclusive to this release. The panel on the left has a blue monochrome picture collage and the panel on the right is white with the title, tracklist and copyright text in red. The records have orange CBS labels with the logo of the Yugoslav copyright organisation "SAKOJ". The album title on the record labels is "Welcome To The Rock People".
Dr. Hanns Peter Bushoff has a single LP release with just Record 1 with the title Hard Rock Album 1. The rear sleeve of the album is blank. The record labels are the same as shown. Presumably Records 2 and 3 were also released in this form, but they have no Dylan content.
Thanks to Manuel García Jara and Dr. Hanns Peter Bushoff for information and scans.
Various Artists - "The Music People Vols. 1-3" - 3LP set, CBS CBSMF 1-3 (Denmark), 1972:
|
|
The very rare Danish edition of this compilation was released in three separate volumes, which may have been sold separately as well as together in a set. The records were made in Holland and are identical to the Dutch ones above. For this reason, this compilation has the Dutch tracklist and the record labels have the Dutch title (Welcome The Rock People) and catalogue number CBS S 66308. The sleeves were made in Denmark and printed by Quick Offset A-S. Surprisingly, these sleeves have a different title and catalogue number from the record labels: The Music People Vol. 1 (CBSMF 1), The Music People Vol. 2 (CBSMF 2) and The Music People Vol. 3 (CBSMF 3). The front picture by well-known Danish artist Peder Bundgaard is identical for the three volumes but the background colour is different: green (Vol. 1), violet (Vol. 2) and orange (Vol. 3). Each rear sleeve has two folded-over flaps and each one has the complete tracklist of the compilation, but the tracklist of each volume is marked with a box of the same colour as the front and with the text "Denne plader indeholder: [This record includes:]". There is more Danish text at the bottom; translated by Google as: "Three records and over two hours of music with the most important artists". The three records come in generic white inner sleeves, each with sticker showing the tracklist of each record and the text "Music Folket" (The Music People) and another photo from Peder Bundgard. Thanks to Manuel García Jara for information and scans. |

This is the second volume of the "SERIE GT" series of "driving" 8-track compilations, for Vol. 1 see International Album Releases (Various Artist Compilations) 1970s. This volume includes The Grand Coulee Dam (R-0066) from A Tribute To Woody Guthrie Part One (see above) and the tracklist is a selection taken from the 3LP set Welcome The Rock People (CBS 66308), the 1972 Dutch version of The Music People (also see above). However, note that the artists shown on the front of cartridge don't match the real tracklist. |

detail of CD rear insert
The 1989 Warner Bros 27 track single CD reissue omits three songs from the double album but the three Dylan/Band songs and two ensemble tracks remain. The CD release has a stapled 12-page booklet as the front insert. The text on the rear insert is printed vertically, so it's shown here on its side.
Thanks to Anssi Sallmen and Gerd Rundel for details of their CDs, which come in the same packaging as mine. There is one small difference in the bottom text - their CDs were manufactured by JVC, whereas my CD was manufactured by WEA. Both CD variants were made in the USA but the JVC CD must be the first release. My copy was bought in New York in 1998.
This CD was re-released by Rhino Records/Warner Bros with the same artwork in 2005 - detailed scans required.
BMG Club D154109 (USA), 1989:

Thanks to Jack from Canada for scans of the BMG Club edition - this has a unique disc with BMG information and catalogue number D 154109, but uses the standard Warner Bros rear insert with a white panel with BMG info replacing the barcode. This CD was also manufactured by WEA. |

Bear Family BCD 17329 (Germany) - front of box, scan by Jack from Canada |
This 3CD boxed set contains two books in a card slipcase, the first one with pockets for the discs on the inside rear. The 1968 and 1970 concerts are now ordered chronologically, so that all three of Bob's songs with The Band from the 1968 New York afternoon concert are together on CD1, with the opening ensemble song This Train Is Bound For Glory (which is still sadly truncated, this time at 1:16, again with any possible contribution from Bob omitted) at the start of CD1 and the closing ensemble song This Land Is Your Land at the end of CD1 (also still not in full). |

The 1970 Hollywood Bowl concert is on both CD2 and CD3, with material not released on the original 1972 releases including new 1970 ensemble versions without Bob of This Train Is Bound For Glory and This Land Is Your Land. There is no new 1968 material, and the extra 1970 material does not include any Dylan contributions, as he was not present.
Alan Hoaksey adds that CD3 includes Last Thoughts On Woody Guthrie (7:07) from the Town Hall, New York, 12 Apr 1963, released on The Bootleg Series Vols. 1-3, 1991. Manfred Helfert says that from the interviews included with this set, it appears that Bob and The Band were let into the hall through a side entrance just before their set, so could not have participated on This Train Is Bound For Glory! I have therefore delisted R-0067.
Thanks to Harold Lepidus, Jacques Colinet, Keith Venturoni, Alan Hoaksey, Manfred Helfert and Jack from Canada for information. More will be added when available.
