Tracklist: When I Paint My Masterpiece, It Ain't Me Babe, Lonesome Death Of Hattie Carroll, Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall, Romance In Durango, Isis, Blowin' In the Wind, Wild Mountain Thyme, Mama You Been On My Mind, Dark As A Dungeon, I Shall Be Released, Mr Tambourine Man, Tangled Up In Blue, Oh Sister, Hurricane, One More Cup Of Coffee, Sara, Just Like A Woman, Knockin' On Heaven's Door, This Land Is Your Land

NOTE: The cover slips for this set incorrectly list "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine" in place of "Wild Mountain Thyme."

DEEP: The complete Dylan performances from the second Toronto RTR gig. Quality-wise, this set gets the nod over Flaggin' Down The Double E's, owing to its overall more robust and fuller sound. Adjust your ear to this one and then sit back and revel in all its raging glory and subtle nuances. These are regal readings, performances that deserve better than a good audience recording. It's scary to wonder the impact these would have should we ever be blessed with professional recordings. Cool cover of Dylan lying on backstage sofa, strumming guitar, with an RT live group shot on rear.
