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 and here.

Today I’ve got still more.

Enjoy while you can.

Audio: Bob Dylan’s Freewheelin’ Outtakes, Alternate Takes Part 1 – ‘Corrina Corrina,’ ‘That’s Alright Mama’ & More

March 6, 2014audio, Music, streaming musicBob Dylan, bootleg, Corrina Corrina, Days of the Crazy-Wild, Milkcow's Calf Blues, music, outtakes, streaming music, That's Alright Mama, The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, Worried BluesMichael Goldberg

Bob Dylan began recording his second album, The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan, at Columbia Studio A in New York on April 24, 1962.

He spent an entire year, off an on, writing and recording, completing work on the album on April 24, 1963.

Quite a change from the time spent on his debut, Bob Dylan, which was recorded in two days.

There were eight sessions in all for The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan, and most of the songs that ended up on the album were written by Dylan, again a marked change from the first one, which was nearly all covers.

Here are some of the songs and versions that didn’t make the official album.

“Corrina Corrina,” alternate take:

“(I Heard That) Lonesome Whistle”:

“That’s Alright Mama”:

“Milkcow’s Calf Blues”:

“Baby I’m In The Mood For You”:

“Worried Blues”:

Audio: Bob Dylan & Johnny Cash’s ‘Nashville Skyline’ Session – Feb. 18, 1969

Yesterday I did a post about the first Nashville Skyline session to produce music that ended up on the album. (There was an unproductive session the previous day but no information about what was recorded has surfaced.)

Aside from the resulting album, Nashville Skyline, a country gem that is as peculiar as it is enjoyable, what is most interesting about the making of the album has to do with a guest artist who joined Dylan in the studio on February 18, 1969.

Johnny Cash!

Previously Dylan hadn’t had much luck working with other big stars. Things were awkward with John Lennon, and he didn’t care for Andy Warhol at all, according to those who were at the Factory when Dylan met Warhol.

But with Johnny Cash Dylan hit pay dirt. Their recording of “Girl From the North Country” is terrific, and some of other others are wonderful.

So today I’m posting a bunch of songs from the Dylan/Cash session plus an alternative take of “Country Pie” from the February 14, 1968 session.

Bob Dylan and Johnny Cash, “One Too Many Mornings” take 1:
