Our Take

Ah, Bob Dylan, the enigmatic wordsmith! The man, the myth, the legend. The Bootleg Series Vol. 17 brings us deep into the rabbit hole of Dylan's Time Out Of Mind sessions from 1996-1997. Fragments, indeed.

This collection of unreleased tracks, alternate takes, and demos reveals a fascinating peek behind the curtain of Dylan's creative process during one of his most acclaimed periods. The raw, stripped-down sound gives us a glimpse of the master at work, fleshing out the bones of what would become a classic album.

From the haunting beauty of "Mississippi" to the raw emotion of "Not Dark Yet," these fragments offer a treasure trove of musical gems for die-hard Dylan fans. The haunting melodies and poetic lyrics remind us why Dylan is considered a true genius of his craft.

While some tracks may feel rough around the edges, that only adds to the charm and authenticity of this collection. It's like eavesdropping on a musical genius in his most vulnerable, unguarded moments. The imperfections only serve to highlight Dylan's uncanny ability to capture the human experience in all its messy, beautiful glory.

In conclusion, Fragments: Time Out Of Mind Sessions is a must-listen for any Dylan aficionado. It's a rare glimpse into the mind of a musical icon at the height of his powers. So sit back, press play, and let the magic of Bob Dylan wash over you. Trust us, you won't regret it.

About the artist

Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan, the enigmatic troubadour of the 1960s folk revival, is a name that echoes through the hallowed halls of musical history like a harmonica riff on a dusty country road. With a career spanning over six decades, Dylan has always been a shape-shifter, a chameleon of sound and style, forever evolving and defying categorization. Born Robert Allen Zimmerman in Duluth, Minnesota in 1941, Dylan first made waves in the Greenwich Village folk scene in the early 1960s, armed with nothing but a guitar and a voice that sounded like it had seen more than its fair share of hard times. His early protest songs, such as "Blowin' in the Wind" and "The Times They Are a-Changin'", became anthems for a generation searching for meaning in a tumultuous world. But Dylan was never content to rest on his laurels. He famously went electric in 1965, much to the chagrin of his diehard folk fans, and never looked back. From the raw energy of "Like a Rolling Stone" to the surreal poetry of "Desolation Row", Dylan's discography reads like a roadmap of the human experience, full of twists and turns, highs and lows. Throughout his career, Dylan has been hailed as a poet, a prophet, a genius, and a madman. His live performances are legendary for their unpredictability and their sheer audacity, with Dylan often rearranging his own songs on the fly, like a master chef experimenting with a new recipe. Love him or hate him, there's no denying that Bob Dylan is a true original, a one-of-a-kind artist who refuses to be pigeonholed or tamed. And for that, we salute him.
