"Hurricane (Full Length Version)" - stereo/mono 7" promo singles, Columbia 3-10245
(USA), Nov 1975:
These promo singles had the full-length song, a mono version on one side and the regular stereo album version
from Desire on the other side, both 8:34. These Nov 1975 singles precede the release
of the album, which was on 5 Jan 1976.
R-0448 Hurricane (Bob Dylan/Jacques Levy) - full-length mono version (8:34)
There were two main releases - the first has ZLP 160777 (mono side) and ZSM 160778 (stereo side) below the catalogue number 3-10245. The second has ZLP 160777-2 (mono side) and ZSM 160778-2 (stereo side) below the catalogue number. Variant 1 has "HURRICANE" as the title on both sides, variant 2 has "HURRICANE (PART I)" on the mono side and "HURRICANE (PART II)" on the stereo side incorrectly, although both sides are correctly timed at 8:34.
First release (ZLP 160777/ZSM-160778):
|
|
Stefan Haras has a copy with "DEMONSTRATION NOT FOR SALE" rubber stamped on the front sleeve in a different position from the stamp on the front of Hans Seegers' similar copy. The record is the second release variant 1B (mono/stereo) with "DJ RESERVICE" on the labels listed below. Stefan says that the stereo side actually plays mono and the mono side actually plays stereo! I do not know if this is a common fault. |

There are three sub-variants of the second release variant 1 with the song title listed as "HURRICANE" on both sides with "DJ RESERVICE" or "SPECIAL RUSH RESERVICE" above the catalogue number on the right of the centre hole. This text is missing from both sides of second release variant 2. |

For world-wide commercial releases in 1975 and 1976 with Hurricane split over two sides of a 7" single (Part I = R-0126, Part II = R-0127), and alternate versions of Hurricane Part I (R-0126) with a swear-word bleeped (stereo = R-0441, mono = R-0525), see below.

These two different singles with the same sleeve (promo sleeve 2 above) have the same catalogue number as before but only the first part of the song on each side, both stereo and mono! A swear-word is bleeped for "radio-friendly" play. R-0525 Hurricane (Part I) (Bob Dylan/Jacques Levy): radio station edit (3:45) with swear-word bleeped (mono version) R-0441 Hurricane (Part I) (Bob Dylan/Jacques Levy): radio station edit (3:45) with swear-word bleeped (stereo version) |

 Columbia 3-10245 (USA) promo single second release: stereo side (ZSS 160783-2, R-0441) with sticker and date stamp, scan by François Guillez |
François Guillez has a copy of the second release with a radio station sticker and a stamped date of "JAN 30, 1976", which may mean that this promo was released later than Nov 1975.

 Columbia 3-10245 (USA) commercial single - front of sleeve scan by Hans Seegers |
All the commercial singles shown were in stereo and had the song split over the A- and B-sides. They have the same catalogue number as the promo singles with the full-length mono version of Hurricane (R-0448) and the first part of the song only, for those see above. |

The US commercial single came in a sleeve without text on the front or rear and two main label variants:
Unusually, Kenneth Robson's first pressing copy came in a generic Columbia sleeve, not a picture sleeve. Both Pete Jones and Terry Harvey have copies of variant 1 of the second pressing with Engineered by Don Meehan" not present on the A-side. Jürgen Wasser has a copy with a jukebox strip.

"Hurricane (Part I)"/"Hurricane (Part II)" - 7" commercial singles, CBS 3841 (NL), Nov 1975:
 CBS 3841 (NL) - first variant, red text, scan by Hans Seegers |
The Dutch sleeve occurs in four sleeve variant versions shown here. It has "BOB DYLAN" and "HURRICANE" on the front and rear and "HURRICANE" occurs in one of four colours. Stefan Haras has a copy in the first variant sleeve with "HURRICANE" in red. More rear sleeve scans required. As far as I know all the records are the same. The 2019 Sony Music Holland 2CD release Top 40 Bob Dylan, is a Dutch Top 40 Singles Collection containing Hurricane (Part I), but the version there is timed at 4:06, with the final harmonica passage and longer fade-out of the full length version of the song added to R-0126! This has therefore been allocated a new R-number and is listed separately in 2019. Thanks to Hans Seegers, Stefan Haras and Peter Coulthard for information and scans. |

This French 7" single comes in a Dutch sleeve, the third variant above with orange text, printed in Holland. The record itself was made in France. For some reason there is a gap in French 7" single releases in 1975, in that there were no single releases from Blood On The Tracks or The Basement Tapes, and this is the only French single released from Desire. (The French releases of Blood On The Tracks, Desire and Hard Rain were made in Holland.)

The West German promo rear sleeve is generic without text, see 7" Single Sleeves. The commercial sleeve has the additional words "PART 1 + 2" below the red song title on the front. The commercial rear sleeve is the same as the commercial front. There were three commercial releases: the first two do not have an "LC|0149" capsule on the record labels. The first commercial release record has labels with the same text layout as those of the promo release - these labels do not have the CBS logo included in the circumference text. The second commercial release labels have new circumference text including the CBS logo as shown.
The commercial single was re-released in the late 1970s in the same sleeve but with one minor record label difference - it now has "LC|0149" in a capsule printed to the right of the centre hole below the "GEMA" logo. The circumference text is the same as that of the second commercial release including the CBS logo.

"Hurricane (Part I)"/"Hurricane (Part II)" - 7" commercial single, CBS 3841 (Spain), Nov 1975:
 CBS 3841 (Spain) - front scan by Magnus Sjöberg (both variants) |
The song title
is translated into Spanish as "HURACAN": The rear sleeve has the song
lyrics in English. The record was made in Spain by Discos CBS
S.A., Madrid, and has
orange/yellow CBS labels. Like the Italian and Japanese singles below, the
English lyrics
have "South Africa" instead of "South America".
The Spanish lyrics are correct! The record has orange/yellow CBS labels. Ger Hemel has a copy in the same sleeve with a small variant on the B-side only. To the right of the centre hole it has just "(P) 1975 CBS" instead of "(P) 1975 CBS, Inc." as on the B-side of Magnus Sjöberg's copy. |

The apparently attractive sleeve for the Spanish Hurricane single above is really a blatant fake. The "No. 1 in USA" logo (printed, not a sticker) is actually taken from Asylum Spanish singles like the Eagles example shown. The real CBS Spain "NO. UNO EN USA" logo is shown on a Spanish Chicago single. The Hurricane single actually only reached #33 in the USA, although the Desire album did reach #1 (and was sold in Spain with this logo on the front sleeve). Thanks to Manuel García Jara for the information and the Eagles/Chicago scans.

CBS/Sony SOPB 349 (Japan) - front scan by Ronald Born |
This single had the lyrics on the rear sleeve in English and Japanese. There was a promo single with white CBS/Sony labels and commercial versions with regular orange labels. The promo single came in a blue generic CBS/Sony sleeve, see 7" Single Sleeves. Like the Spanish and Italian singles, the lyrics have "South Africa" instead of "South America". The first commercial single has the same text as the promo single, but the second commercial single has "Engineered by Don Meehan" added above "Produced by Don DeVito" below the centre hole. |

"Hurricane (Part I)"/"Hurricane (Part II)" - 7" promo and commercial singles, CBS BA 222184 (Australia), Nov 1975, re-released ca. 1976:
 CBS BA 222184 (Australia) - front scan by Hans Seegers (all releases) |
The Australian single was released twice in the same sleeve, first with the 1960s-style orange label design, and then with the 1970s-style orange/yellow label design. Promo and commercial copies of each release are shown. Early Australian release labels like both shown had the text "MADE IN AUSTRALIA BY A REGISTERED USER OF THE TRADE MARKS" without a CBS copyright. This is because up to 1977 all Australian records were manufactured by the Australian Record Company (Pty) Ltd. (A.R.C.) on behalf of CBS, as shown on the rear sleeve of this single. A.R.C. changed its name to CBS Records Australia Limited on 17 Oct 1977, and after that date the labels have longer bottom edge text which includes CBS copyright information, not shown here. The first record shown is a first release commercial copy with promo stamp ("NOT FOR SALE") on the A-side only, the sleeve is the same as shown. The B-side does not have a promo stamp, but the text below the centre hole is slightly higher than that of the first release commercial copy B-side. The next record has orange/yellow labels, and this time has the same promo stamp on the rear of the sleeve and also on the A-side. Again, the B-side does not have a promo stamp but again has the variable text in a slightly different position from that of the second release commercial copy B-side. This time the text is lower than that of the commercial copy, e.g. in my copy the text "(P) 1975 CBS Inc." at top right is aligned with the second "R" of "RECORD" in the circumference text; on the commercial copy the text "(P) 1975 CBS Inc." is aligned with the first "R" of "RECORD". |

These singles have orange/yellow Discos CBS labels.

It also comes in an orange/white CBS Argentina sleeve with a similar stamp: "DISCO PARA DEMOSTRACION - PROHIBIDA LA VENTA" ["DEMONSTRATION RECORD - SALE PROHIBITED"]. The promo record labels have just "45 r.p.m." to the left of the centre hole under the "ESTEREO" text. The commercial record labels have the playing times ("3:45" and "4:57") under the "ESTEREO" text, with "45 r.p.m." printed further to the right. Both the promo and commercial records have stamped matrix numbers: Side A - ASS 2516, Side B - ASS 2517. |

This very rare single also has orange/yellow Discos CBS labels and was pressed by Heriba Ltda of Bolivia on behalf of Discos CBS. The sleeve is made of thin paper and has what looks like a jukebox label on the rear. As well as sticking brown tape round three sides of the sleeve, the original owner has written his name on both sides of the sleeve and both labels!

"Hurricane (Part I)"/"Hurricane" - radio station promo 7" stereo single, S CBS 3878 (UK), 16 Jan 1976:
R-0441-2 Hurricane (Part I) (Bob Dylan/Jacques Levy): radio station edit (3:45) with swear-word bleeped (stereo version)
Unusually both sides of this promo single had the large "A" that usually denoted the A-side for DJs, so CBS UK had classified it as a double A-side. It had the full-length album version on the reverse A-side (playing at 33⅓ rpm). Thanks to Geoff Lambourn for noticing "ALLEN" in the vinyl after the matrix numbers on the reverse A-side. This means the record was mastered by Allen Landau, CBS UK mastering engineer between 1972 and 1978.
Hans Seegers also has a UK white label promo with the mono Hurricane (Part I), (R-0525), on the A-side (ZSP160799) and the stereo Hurricane (Part I), (R-0441), on the reverse (ZSS160783). This is the same as the 1975 US Columbia promo with the same numbers - see above.
François Guillez has a copy of the commercial single as below, probably the first variant, with a promo sticker on the front sleeve at top right and the same promo sticker covering "CBS" on each side of the record.

All singles listed are in stereo and contain this rarity on the A-side. R-0441-3 Hurricane (Part 1) (Bob Dylan/Jacques Levy): radio station version with swear-word bleeped (stereo version) On the commercial single, the B-side was always the full version of Hurricane, playing at either 33⅓ or 45 RPM. Detailed information provided by Hans Seegers, to whom I'm extremely grateful. |

S CBS 3878JB (UK) - two variants:
Presumably the "JB" stands for "Jukebox", although
the singles don't have open centres as expected.
A-side label says: "HURRICANE (Part
I)" and plays at 45 RPM. Swear-word bleeped.
B-side label says: "HURRICANE (Part II)" this is not true, it plays the
full-length version at 45 RPM which is stated on the label.
The 2nd variant is
visually exactly the same (except for matrix numbers) but:
A-side label says: "HURRICANE (Part I)" and plays at 45 RPM.
Swear-word bleeped.
B-side label says: "HURRICANE (Part II)" this is not true, it plays the full-length version at 33⅓ RPM although
"45
RPM" is stated on the label.
Tom Willems has a copy of S CBS 3878JB (variant 1) with a sticker with "FVH" over the "CBS" logo, large "A" and "B" above the text lines to the right of the centre hole, and a large "698" above the song title on the A-side only. The letters and numbers have been added with Letraset. This has presumably been customised by a collector, rather than a radio station or library.
S CBS 3878
(UK) - first variant:
Overall length of "BOB
DYLAN" on left is 20 mm.
A-side label says: "HURRICANE (Part I)" with LP credits, 45
printed in large numbers. Swear-word bleeped.
B-side label says: "HURRICANE" with LP credits,
33⅓
printed
in large numbers. "Full length version" on right.
S CBS 3878
(UK) - second variant:
Second variant: Overall length of "BOB DYLAN" on left is larger at 28
mm
Label A states: "HURRICANE (Part I)" without LP
credits, 45 printed in small figures.
Swear-word bleeped.
Label B states: "HURRICANE" without LP credits,
33⅓
printed
in small figures. It omits "Full length version" on right.
S CBS 3878
(UK) - third variant:
The third variant is again
only identified by matrix numbers:
Overall length of "BOB DYLAN" again 28 mm
Label A states:" HURRICANE (Part I)" without LP
credits, 45 printed in small figures.
Swear-word bleeped.
Label B states: "HURRICANE" without LP credits,
33⅓ printed
in small figures. This is mislabelled, because it plays at 45 rpm! It
omits "Full length version" on right.
S CBS 3878 (UK) - fourth
variant:
Overall length of "BOB DYLAN" on left is 20 mm.
A-side label states: "HURRICANE (Part I)" without LP
credits, 45 printed in large figures. Swear-word bleeped.
B-side label states: "HURRICANE" without LP credits,
33⅓
printed in large figures. 'FULL LENGTH VERSION' on right (I have a copy of this one!)
S CBS 3878 (UK) - fifth
variant:
Overall length of
"BOB DYLAN" on left is 20 mm
A-side label states: "HURRICANE (Part I)" with
LP reference, 45 printed in large figures. Swear-word bleeped.
B-side label is the same as the previous single.

"Hurricane (Part I)"/"Hurricane Part II)" - 7"
commercial single, CBS 3878 (Italy), Jan 1976:
This single is the same as CBS 3841, released in Nov 1975 in Holland, West Germany
and Spain. The UK single S CBS 3878 is completely different, see above.

 CBS 3878 (Italy) - A-side with sticker, scan by Sergio Mariano Romay (R-0126) |
Thanks to Paul Shenton for spotting that the lyrics on the rear sleeve have "Rubin's in South Africa fighting for his name" instead of "South America" in the sixth verse, like the Spanish and Japanese singles above! Thanks to Sergio Mariano Romay a copy with stickers from magazine "Omaggio Music" on the front sleeve and A-side and also for the information that Hurricane Carter indeed fought in Argentina before going to jail. Dylan refers to the fight that Rubin "Hurricane" Carter starred in the city of Rosario (Argentina, province of Santa Fé) on August 5, 1966. This was Carter's last fight. He was defeated by the Argentine Juan Carlos Rivero (born in the province of Córdoba). "Two months after the triple murder in a bar in the town of Paterson, New Jersey, and his arrest for some hours as a suspect in the crime, Carter landed in Rosario to face Juan Carlos Rivero from Córdoba. The result was not expected by the American, possible challenger to the middleweight world title. He lost on points after ten intense rounds". For Argentinean promo and commercial singles, see above.
Thanks to Terry Harvey for spotting that the A-side is timed at 5:14 and the B-side at 5:39, totalling 10:53. The correct track times are as listed above and on other worldwide singles, totalling 8:42.
Thanks to Éamonn Ó Catháin, Sam C. Visser, Hans Seegers, Sergio Mariano Romay and Terry Harvey for information and scans.

 CBS 3841 (Portugal) - B-side picture from www.discogs.com (R-0127, variant 2) |
The front Portuguese text says: "Quem tem medo de Rubin "Hurricane" Carter? [Who is afraid of Rubin "Hurricane" Carter?]". This single came with an insert with the story of Hurricane Carter in Portuguese and the lyrics of the song in English. (The lyrics correctly have "South America"!)
Ronald Born has a copy where the copyright information is placed slightly differently to the left of the centre hole and the "(P) 1975" is in a different typeface.
Michel Pomarede has what purports to be a radio station
promo copy bought on eBay. The sleeve is of thick card and slightly yellowing.
The front sleeve has a completely different photo of Rubin Carter, not used
anywhere else worldwide, and lacks the Portuguese text. The rear sleeve is
similar to that of the commercial copy but does not have folded-over flaps and
opens at the top, not the side. The A-side has what looks like the variant 2
label design and a white promo sticker. This copy also comes with the double-sided
insert shown. The authenticity of the sleeve is questionable although the
record is almost certainly official (even if the promo sticker is not).

Manuel García Jara has found a second copy with a fake sleeve. This time there is a "promo" stamp on the rear with "OFERTA VENDA PROHIBIDA [BID SALE PROHIBITED" but no promo sticker on the record, which also looks genuine. |

"Hurricane (Part I)"/"Hurricane (Part II)" - 7" commercial single, CBS 45-7568 (Mexico), Jan 1976:
|
CBS 45-7568 (Mexico) - front scan by Hans Seegers |
In common with other Mexican Dylan releases, the title is translated into Spanish - this time as "Huracán". This single was previously listed for Nov 1975, but the record labels are clearly dated 1976. There is also a folded lyrics insert with the lyrics translated into Spanish. "South America" is correct (see comments for 1975 Spanish single and 1976 Italian single above)! |

Various Artists - untitled compilation EP, Express Songs EXP.160 (Thailand), 1976:
This stereo EP was legal in Thailand at the time of release, but there
is no association with Columbia. These Thai releases are extremely rare
and sell for very high prices.

The A-side of this EP has Nights On Broadway by The Bee-Gees and Country Boy by Glen Campbell. Bob's contribution is two rarities on the B-side (the tracks have been copied from an official single, so the song is split, even though it doesn't need to be on an EP!).
