Esce “Tell Tale Signs”, cornucopia di meraviglie “dylaniane”

Splendide notizie per tutti i dylanofili accaniti (e sono più di quanto non si pensi) che in autunno si apprestano a fare una ricca scorapacciata di outtakes, rarità e brani unreleased del loro idolo. E’ confermata infatti l’uscita per l’8 ottobre dell’ottavo capitolo delle “Bootleg Series” di Bob Dylan che si intitola “Tell Tale Signs” ed è disponibile sia in versione doppio che triplo CD deluxe o, a scelta, in 4 dischi vinilici come ai vecchi tempi. “Tell Tale Signs” contiene registrazioni di studio, demo e brani dal vivo del periodo 1986-2006, e tutti i formati venduti includeranno un booklet di 60 pagine con foto rare, liner notes di Larry “Ratso” Sloman, e tutti i “credits” dei brani.
