Audio: Bob Dylan’s ’50th Anniversary Collection: The Copyright Extension Collection, Volume 1′ – Freewheelin’ Rarities, Part Three

In 2012, in order to protect the copyrights on a bunch of Bob Dylan recordings that have not been officially released, Sony released a very limited edition of a multi-disk set called The 50th Anniversary Collection: The Copyright Extension Collection, Volume 1.

Among the gems on the album are many outtakes and alternate takes of songs recorded for The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan.

I previously posted clips from the set here and here.

Today I’ve got more.

Enjoy while you can.

Audio: Bob Dylan’s Rare Mono ‘Rocks And Gravel’ – Freewheelin’ Sessions Rock Version – 1962

T”Rocks And Gravel” is an interesting recording that Bob Dylan made for The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan.

It was originally included on the album along three other songs which were all replaced.

What’s interesting is that the year is 1962 and yet Dylan is accompanied by drums, piano, bass and lead guitar.
