A fan-produced and fan-circulated collection, not a commercial
product, including one version of every song performed in Dylan's
acoustic sets in 1997. All tracks in at least very good quality;
most are excellent or nearly excellent. The selection of
performances is also first rate, and the cover slips and back covers
are top-notch. The premiere American fan project of its day.
