Through The Open Window, 1956-1963 is the 18th volume of Bob Dylan's Bootleg Series, and this two-CD highlights edition gathers 42 recordings, with a book, into a portrait of the artist before the world knew his name.
The story begins in 1956 with a teenage Dylan singing "Let The Good Times Roll" at a music shop in St. Paul, Minnesota, then moves through home tapes, Minneapolis party recordings and Greenwich Village club sets. By the end, the young folk singer has written songs that would change popular music, and these discs capture that leap almost in real time.
Many of the performances were previously unreleased. Traditional songs like "Dink's Song" and "Po' Lazarus" show him soaking up folk and blues from every source he could find, while studio outtakes and alternate takes of "Masters Of War" and "Girl From The North Country" reveal great songs still being shaped, line by line.
The second disc closes with selections from his 1963 concert at Carnegie Hall, where "A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall" and "When The Ship Comes In" ring out with startling confidence for a 22-year-old.
For anyone curious how a Minnesota kid became the most talked-about songwriter of his generation, this set makes the case one ragged, brilliant take at a time.
