Reviews Customer Reviews for Live At The Gaslight 1962 Great treasure--Early Dylan at his Prime Rating: I'm one of those listeners who gave up on Dylan after he went electric. Well, I did drift back with Nashville Skyline, but after that it was all work and no play for both Dylan and me. After seeing the excellent exhibit at the Morgan Library in New York City, I realized I just need more of that early Bob. (I did listen into the 1961 Carnegie Hall concert which they had at the show, and that's what really made me say, "You gotta find some of that early, wonderful, brilliant Bobby D.")
The other day I wandered into Starbucks in Charlottesville, and there was a pile of this particular recording, and I bought one for the long ride north. What a pleasure. So why give it only four stars? I've heard that wonderful recording from 1961 with the chatter between songs, and Dylan in such a great mood that he's having a good time. I had a great time listening to this milestone recording, but with the way songs were cut and edited, I only wished for more. Bootleggers of the world, thanks for saving music for future generations. Now, if we could only get legitimate companies to issue that music in the near perfect state that this performance has been issued.
Customer Reviews for Live At The Gaslight 1962 Cd Set List Rating: Some great reviews here. I guess some people may wonder what the original set list was. I've gotten it off the original tapes and some web sites. Some people claim that it was one long show. Some claim it was multiple nights. I wasn't born yet myself, but the order seems acurate by the recordings I've heard.
Dylan is one to constantly refine his work through live performance. So, it's always interesting when you get to hear a real early live show. This album is terrific.
Note: This is not the set list included on this Album. It is from the original show that the album was taken from.
