The latest in the series of extensive Bob Dylan archives is Live 1962 – 1966: Rare Performances From the Copyright Collections, a bunch of live performances that previously had extremely limited releases earlier in the decade in order to protect them from falling prey to European copyright law, which at the time meant that recordings fell into the public domain just fifty years after release. The so-called term of copyright has since been extended to 70 years after its release, and the Dylan rarities are now being collected and enjoying a wider release.

This law has seen numerous rarities releases from artists from the ’60s, in order to circumvent the law – all of which has been a boon for music fans who are suddenly given access to vaults of recordings from their favourite artists.

This particular Dylan release includes a number of valuable curios, such as the earliest known version of ‘Blowin In The Wind’ from New York’s Gerde’s Folk City in 1962; a performance with Joan Baez at the March On Washington just before MLK’s legendary ‘I Have A Dream’ speech; and a 1966 version of ‘Desolation Row’ recorded at Channle 9 studios in Sydney.

It’s out this Friday (July 27). Check the tracklisting beneath this underrated Dylan classic.
