This is a separate multi-year list by release date of commercially-released Various Artist stereo compilation albums released in 2005 that have been referred to me but do not qualify for my Searching For A Gem list because they contain only Bob Dylan performances which are available on officially released Dylan albums. Nevertheless, their interest value or scarcity means they're worth listing here - as far as I know some are not included on any other Internet site. Promo-only Various Artist compilation albums with Dylan tracks are now included in this list. Other International Albums and Compilations are now here:
There must be hundreds of these albums from round the world! If you have any entries to add to the list or additions/corrections to
existing entries, please let me know!
Please note I cannot value your Dylan rarities -
see the Mission page for reasons why. Contact the
dealers on my Trading page for assistance!

 Sorrisi E Canzoni TV DJC 05 02 (Italy) - front scan by Peter Oudejans |
Claudio Cecchetto is a well-known Italian record producer and author. Bob's unusual contribution to this pop compilation is Hurricane from Desire. The text "NON VENDIBILE SEPARATAMENTE [NOT TO BE SOLD SEPARATELY]" on the rear insert leads me to suspect that this CD came with an issue of the TV magazine, now missing. |
