Bob Dylan
The Pre-NET Covers Collection 1974-1987

Download FLAC: Google Drive

As complete a collection as possible “The Genuine Before The Never Ending Tour Covers Collection 1974-1987”.

A prequel to the previous set from the best sources available…every cover song performed from each year is represented at least once.
…a note on this, there are 2 covers performed in 1976 that are not circulating. A text file is included in the download for these tracks to mark their omission.

Also represented is more than one version if for example there is a solo piano & a version with the band or an instrumental version.

I have only adjusted the volume & fade in/out of tracks to give a better listening experience as the nature of the collection is that it comes from a vast number of different sources. No Compression, EQ, or any other kind of tampering with the audio was done.

P.S. Cover Artwork has also been created. A Front cover image (above) for the overall set & an image for each year in the downloads.

P.P.S. I’ve put a huge amount of work into this, and I’ve tried to be as careful as possible, I hope mistakes (if any) are minor.

A huge thank you to all the tapers & uploaders & the ER community!
