Audio: Bob Dylan and The Band’s Official ‘The Basement Tapes’ Released 39 Years Ago – ‘Big River,’ ‘I Don’t Hurt Anymore,’ ‘Cool Water’ & More

One of the covers from a bootleg Basement Tapes collection.

On June 26, 1975, 39 years ago, Columbia released a version of The Basement Tapes.

The two album set contained 24 songs from the more than 100 songs that Bob Dylan and The Band recorded during the informal ‘Basement Tapes’ sessions.

Many of the recordings that didn’t make it onto the official release, are wonderful.

Yeah, the fidelity from the bootlegs isn’t so great, but the vibe is incredible.

Here are ten gems.
