TAS Rated 4/5 Music, 3/5 Sonics in the January 2009 Issue of The Absolute Sound!
Featured in Michael Fremer's Heavy Rotation in the March 2009 Issue of Stereophile!
The latest volume in the acclaimed ongoing series features unreleased recordings, studio demos, alternate takes, live tracks and rare film songs spanning 1989-2006.
Bob Dylans Tell Tale Signs: The Bootleg Series Vol. 8 is the 8th installment in the best-selling and critically lauded Bootleg Series which launched in 1991 released by Columbia Records. A treasure-trove of 27 songs, Tell Tale Signs features previously unreleased recordings and alternate versions of tracks from sessions which generated some of Bob Dylans most acclaimed and commercially successful albums from the last two decades, including Time Out Of Mind, Love And Theft, Modern Times and Oh Mercy.
The collection includes a selection of outstanding live performances from 1989-2006 including "Ring Them Bells" from Dylan's historic shows at New York's Supper Clue in 1993; the unreleased "Girl From the Greenbriar Shore" from 1991; and a consummate rendering of "High Water (for Charley Patton)" from Niagara Falls in 2003.
"...along with mostly organic sonics, the presence of fare like "Red River Shore" - as good as anything on Time Out of Mind, for which the standard was recorded - makes the collection more than just a curiosity item." - Bob Gendron, The Absolute Sound, January 2009
"...this new collection...is staggeringly good, filled with alternate versions, outtakes, demos, and soundtrack and concert recordings. There's a lot here that shows a direct line back to the Dylan of the 1960s..." - David Sokol, Stereophile Magazine, January 2009, Vol. 32, No. 1
