Album Description
This Limited Edition release includes a Reissue Series Sampler that highlights seven recordings from the upcoming Bob Dylan hybrid Super Audio CD reissue series, the first major upgrade of Bob Dylan's catalog. The Reissue Series Sampler includes a previously unreleased live version of Dylan's classic "All I Really Want To Do" from the upcoming The Bootleg Series Vol. 6, Bob Dylan LIVE 1964, the Philharmonic Hall Concert. The sampler has two distinct layers: a newly remastered stereo mix that plays on any CD player and a layer containing both a high-resolution SACD stereo version and a 5.1 multichannel surround version -- of the same repertoire -- that works on Super Audio CD-compatible players.
Album Description
This is the soundtrack from the Movie, starring, along with an all-star cast including Jessica Lange, John Goodman, Melanie Cruse, Ed Harris, Jeff Bridges among many others, the Dylan Man himself. The Movie has received mixed reviews which means it is probably worth seeing but the soundtrack is great! Featuring a myriad of Dylan tunes covered by an international cast of musicians in a host of styles. There are also four tunes that Dylan himself covers, two of which are brand new, 2003 versions. This is a must have for any serious Dylan fan or music lover. Limited edition disc contains 6 recordings from the Bob Dylan SACD reissue series including 'Tangled Up In Blue' & 'Gotta Serve Somebody'. This disc will play in any CD player and includes 5.1 Surround Sound mixes. 14 tracks including 1 bonus track, 'City Of Gold' performed by the Dixie Hummingbirds. Digipak. Sony. 2003.

Very Interesting April 16, 2004

Since almost every known band (famous and not) has recorded some cover version of a Dylan song this compilation (and movie soundtrack)contains
the most experimental,curious and particular ones
Music style varies from Tribal,Hip Hop,Rap,Country,Folk,Rock,psych
and others..Even if most of readers here,myself included, do not
know some of the artists who play on this CD,the first intention could be not to buy the album ,but after listening to the whole
thing you'll agree with me when I say these cover songs are extremely good,in few words Dylan Songs in a different point of view.
It's a pity the man himself has excluded "My Back Pages" by punk Metal band Ramones or "This Wheel's on fire" by Siouxie and the Banshees in that case i should have given 5 stars .This is not a Best of Bob Dylan,there are alread 100 -best of- cd around here,some reviewer misunderstood the meaning of this album
altough the rating is not 5 stars,Masked and Anonymous is worth buying then most of the releases of these modern years.cya

I'll have to disagree with some of the other reviewers, but mostly in terms of the songs they liked and hated. This is a pretty good record. A great Japanese version of My Back Pages starts it off. There is also a cool Italian rap (not Spanish) version of Like a Rolling Stone, and One More Cup... is good track. Most of The Time is also cool, but Sophie Zelmani changes all of the references to the female character to a male one, leading to all sorts of awkward non-ryhmes ("Most of the time/ I can't even be SURE/ if he was ever with me/ Or if I was ever with HIM"??). Los Lobos and De Gregori are annoying tracks. All of the Dylan-performed tracks are great, and I can never understand where the complaining about his voice comes from. Keep listening 'N Sync if that's what you're looking for. And for the record, I have never heard of anyone calling "Saved" one of his worst records. wtf?

This is an excellent album. I especially like "Dixie," which is usually sung as an anthem. Dylan sings it in a much more personal and lyrical way. This is subtle. He is singing about a "Dixie" of the soul, a place before the triumph of modern industialism and commercialism, although he is certainly not immune to the present.
Not your average Dylan release August 3, 2003

Sure, it's different than what one would expect, but that's what makes the CD great. And, BTW, if you saw the movie, the track "City of Gold" would have been where "Blowin' In The Wind" is. A bonus for that track is that two of the guys from Bob's first touring band play with two from his most recent. If the CD does anything, it lets you know one thing about the movie- expect the unexpected.
