Bob Stacy has conducted an extensive analysis of the live performances and has come up with these conclusions.

Sheffield – Newcastle Confusion

I don’t believe we know yet what has happened or when (we may never know) – but it is fairly obvious that there is some sort of mix up between the Sheffield and Newcastle recordings as evidenced in the respective download file sets for 50th Anniversary Collection 1965. If it weren’t for the 6-song audience tape from Sheffield to use in comparison, it might’ve been more difficult to detect and know for sure. As I said, we don’t know everything but a few things could be coming into light.

At very least, the first six songs in the Newcastle download files (#76–#81) are the performances from Sheffield. Those match the performances on the Sheffield audience tape. To my ears, the seventh Newcastle download file (#82 - Mr Tambourine Man) is also probably Sheffield since it seems to have the same general ‘sound’ characteristics (echoey line audio) as the preceding Sheffield performances. The remaining files in the Newcastle file set have a ‘sound’ characteristic which differs from the way the first seven files in that set sound.

I believe we also have at least two first half Newcastle songs to use in comparison. A complete The Times They Are A-Changin’ (Don't Look Back Outtakes) and a complete but mislabelled To Ramona (DVD bonus audio track). Both of those match the first two tracks (#16 and #17) in the Sheffield download files which indicates those two files are actually the Newcastle performances. The first seven Sheffield download files have a common ‘sound’ characteristic which differs from the way the remaining files in that group sound.

It seems likely that the first halves of these two concert recordings were switched and/or mislabelled. When, where and how that may have occurred is only conjecture. However, two of the DVD bonus audio tracks related to Sheffield and Newcastle also weren’t correctly identified and labelled in previous official releases.

Sheffield and Newcastle are concerts where there were reports of microphone failures & possible mic change outs possibly occurring at the midway point or not long afterward. Some of the circulating video evidence from those two shows suggests as much. Likewise, there’s evidence of sound problems heard in these 50th Anniversary Collection 1965 files.

Until we know more, one way to assemble a ‘corrected’ concert sequence might be to intermix files from the two file groups:

*Real Sheffield* = first seven Newcastle download files (#76-#82) + final eight files in the Sheffield file set (#23 - #30)

Note: (#23 – Talkin’ WW III Blues) is apparently an audience recording, indicating that a suitable line recording of that song wasn’t available possibly due to temporary sound problems during the concert.

*Real Newcastle* = first seven Sheffield download files (#16-#22) + final eight files in the Newcastle file set (#83 - #90)

Note: During (#84 – Don’t Think Twice) there may have been a line dropout or mic failure. Dylan interrupts to ask, “Is the microphone off?” before continuing. A performance of Don't Think Twice was filmed by Pennebaker (was it Dylan at Newcastle or another concert?) and included as a partial clip in the DLB film. The Newcastle performance (#84) is not the audio for that clip. As it turns out, the Manchester audio was apparently synced to that brief video of Don’t Think Twice in the film. Manchester is the far superior performance of that song. Manchester is also the apparent source of the Don't Think Twice version heard on the Retro Rock Radio Show discs.

Retro Rock Radio Show

R-0402 Don't Think Twice, It's All Right – this is not Newcastle but rather Manchester, England, 7 May 1965. Because of its placement within the Don't Look Back film and its identification as Newcastle in the Don't Look Back Ballantine paperback book, it had long been assumed that this performance was from Newcastle. Actually, there are visual clues (Dylan’s shirt, the microphones and mike cords) indicating that the video of the song is not from Newcastle but is actually from Manchester. With the release of 50^th Anniversary Collection 1965, it is now clear that the Newcastle Don’t Think Twice is quite a bit different from what is heard in the Don't Look Back film soundtrack and also different from the near-complete version available as the Retro Rock Radio Show track. The audio is the performance from Manchester with only slight edits made at the very beginning to exclude the opening applause when Dylan starts singing his first line and also to remove a barely audible cough or clearing of the throat he makes before singing "If'n you don't know by now". The corresponding section of the “real” Newcastle recording, following its partial false start, seems the most likely source for those edits.

50th Anniversary Collection 1965 file set for London Royal Albert Hall – 9 May 1965

The first half of this concert, files #107 – #113, is the same as the circulating Royal Albert Hall audience tape. The second half, files #114 – #121, are from a line recording.

Don't Look Back DVD Bonus Audio Tracks

Love Minus Zero/No Limit – (as verified previously) is Sheffield – 30 April 1965.

It is the same performance as the correct Sheffield file (#81) in the 50th Anniversary Collection 1965 download set.

To Ramona – (as suspected previously) is Newcastle – 6 May 1965.

It is the same performance as the correct Newcastle (#17) in the 50th Anniversary Collection 1965 download set.

The Lonesome Death Of Hattie Carroll/It's All Over Now, Baby Blue/It Ain't Me, Babe

These bonus audio performances are all the same as those in the 50th Anniversary Collection 1965 file set for 10 May 1965.

They are different from the respective performances in the 50th Anniversary Collection 1965 file set for 9 May 1965. The versions in the 9 May files are the same as those on the circulating Royal Albert Hall audience tape.

Note: The RAH audience tape has historically been dated as 9 May. At one time or other, there were reports and discussions that it might have been misdated and was actually from 10 May. I don’t recall specific evidence as to why the 10 May date should be the more correct date. As far as I know, most discographers still go with a 9 May date for that tape and likewise accept a 10 May attribution for the RAH bonus tracks. The versions in the 50th Anniversary Collection 1965 download support the attributions provided for the RAH bonus tracks in the DVD releases (2000 and 2007). Conventional wisdom follows that the original audience taper would’ve known which concert was being taped. It is possible that somewhere along the line, dubs from that tape might’ve been mislabelled or left unstated by others. It seems a stretch that the Nagra line recordings for both of these concerts would have also been switched or mislabelled. Dylan’s remark at the end of the Baby Blue bonus track, “I’ll see you next time,” seems more of a farewell until his next visit to England than a goodbye until the next evening’s concert.

Alternatively, this is possibly the Newcastle performance of To Ramona, in which case it's the same as R-0294!

This is the only recorded performance of this song by Bob, the performance on the 1975 double album The Basement Tapes is by The Band with vocals by Rick Danko. The song was performed live by Bob on other occasions in late 1965, but this is the only known recording. Thanks to Bob Stacy who writes: "In the "Chicago Tribune", 27 Nov 65 (the day following the show at Aire Crown Theater, 26 Nov 65), the reviewer Bruce Plowman noted, "Dylan introduced a new song last night, one which he wrote, called 'Long Distance Operator'." Also, Bruce says someone who attended the show at San José, CA, 12 Dec 1965, remembers hearing the song. No studio version is known.
