Audio: Bob Dylan’s ‘Another Side Of Bob Dylan’ Released, August 8, 1964; Hear the Outakes – ‘Mr. Tambourine Man,’ ‘Denise,’ ‘California’ & More

Bob Dylan’s fourth album, Another Side Of Bob Dylan, was released 50 years ago, on August 8, 1964.

The album was recorded during one session, on July 9, 1964, in Columbia Studio A in New York with Tom Wilson producing.

Four songs that were recorded during the session were not included on the album. All were eventually released with the exception of “Denise.”

Here are the outtakes.

Enjoy.

[I just published my rock ‘n’ roll/ coming-of-age novel, “True Love Scars,” which features a narrator who is obsessed with Bob Dylan. To read the first chapter, head here.

Or watch an arty video with audio of me reading from the novel here.

Audio: Outtakes From Bob Dylan’s ‘Another Side of Bob Dylan’ Session – ‘Denise,’ ‘Mr. Tambourine Man’ & More

Bob Dylan and Ramblin’ Jack Elliott.

On June 9, 1964 Bob Dylan spent an intense recording session laying down the entire Another Side of Bob Dylan album plus some songs that he didn’t use.

The session was documented in the New Yorker by Nat Hentoff. You can read that story here.

I’d not heard “Denise” before today and it’s a winner for sure.
