Review: A wonderful 'must-have' CD for anyone interested in the beginnings of a legend. It contains the complete circulating tapes of two historic 1961 recordings.
Information:
Source / Venue: East Orange, NJ (Gleason Tape) Feb-March 1961 Carnegie Chapter Hall, NY November 4, 1961 Manufacturer / Catalog No. Skeleton
Quality: 5-6 stars
Bob's Boots ref # BB-d41
The Venues: East Orange was recorded in the East Orange, New Jersey home of Bob & Sid Gleason, and is often referred to as the Gleason tape. It was recorded on amateur 1950's equipment, and the quality is far from what one could expect of modern recording processes ... however, it is still quite good, and far better than the vinyl that had been released for years. Chapter Hall was Dylan's first venture out of the coffee houses and onto a real concert stage. 53 tickets were sold at $2 each for the 200 seat hall. Historians differ on the actual head count, but it was most likely around 75 or so. Again, even though this is a line recording, the limitations of the mobile recording equipment available at the time is quite evident.
