Bob Dylan/The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan Test Pressings and Promotional Album

Bob Dylan’s masterpiece “THE FREEWHEELIN’ BOB DYLAN” created during the folk era is an album that is famous among enthusiasts for the content changes that occurred at the time of release. It was originally scheduled to be released in April 1963, but additional recordings were made in a hurry and the content was replaced at the last minute, and it was released at the end of May. That is the “FREEWHEELIN’” that we have been familiar with for many years. However, since the album had already been completed, a white label promotional edition was pressed in April for the purpose of sending it to radio stations. As a result, the contents of the album were replaced before it went on the market, but in this way the original “FREEWHEELIN'” album was also left behind for posterity. Of course, it was distributed before it was released to the general public, and it was recalled due to changes in the content, so this promo version has now become a legendary version for fans as a mega-rare item. All the songs that were included in the version before the songs were replaced have been included in LP items as copies from the promo version, but until now there have been no items that have included the entire promo version. . However, in recent years, a version of the mega rare promo version carefully recorded by a maniac has been circulating among fans. This edition is recorded from the stereo edition of the promotion disc of “THE FREEWHEELIN’ BOB DYLAN”. Among Dylan’s many items, the highest peak ultra-rare item is made into a disc. This is an ultra-rare item among Dylan’s many items. In the past, a maniac tried to record from the original promo disc, but unlike the mono version, he couldn’t find a disc in good condition (the original was a salvaged promo disc). You can see that they had a hard time suppressing the scratch noise. It is certainly attractive to be able to listen to the stereo mix of “Rocks And Gravel” and “Talking John Birch Paranoid Blues”, which can only be heard on this promo version. This is a rare sound source where you can enjoy a stereo mix of a promo version with completely different content.
