BOB DYLAN & THE HAWKS – LEICESTER 1966 (CD-R)

Description

This live performance, held in Leicester, England on May 15, 1966, has been remastered in 2014 and is now available in a new look. This rare performance, familiar to longtime collectors as it captures the eerie atmosphere of the band’s world tour with Levon & the Hawks, the band’s precursor. The master used for this release is the same mono audience source recorded in the front row of the venue as the definitive version. However, this latest remastering has transformed the sound into a clearer, more powerful sound, as if layers of the sound were peeled away. This live performance, from a period when the band broke away from their role as “spokespersons of the times” and transitioned to electric music, was a major influence on countless musicians, including the Beatles. This is an essential recording for any fan. While the sound quality may be limited to enthusiast collectors, the content of this performance is sure to captivate any fan.
