Bob Dylan / Trouble No More: The Bootleg Series Vol. 13 – 1979-1981

Columbia Records/Legacy Recordings will release in November, Trouble No More, the 13th volume of Bob Dylan‘s celebrated ‘Bootleg Series’, as a nine-disc deluxe edition, featuring a wealth of unreleased material.

This set showcases the music Bob Dylan wrote and performed during the end of the 1970s and the beginning of the 1980s, when he released three albums (his so-called ‘Christian Trilogy’) – Slow Train Coming (1979), Saved (1980) and Shot of Love (1981) – that contained songs of praise, worship and devotion. This new deluxe set features 100 Previously Unreleased Live and Studio Recordings, including 14 Unreleased Songs.

The deluxe box set includes a hardcover book featuring an introduction by Ben Rollins with notes by Amanda Petrusich, Rob Bowman and Penn Jillette.

Six of the CDs contain live performances, with a further two offering rare and unreleased studio takes and rehearsals. The ninth disc is a DVD which includes Trouble No More: A Musical Film, a new feature-length cinematic presentation combining unreleased footage from Dylan’s 1980 tours with new material written by Luc Sante and performed by Academy Award nominee Michael Shannon. This is set to premiere at the 2017 New York Film Festival. Full track listings are below.

This set will also be available as a 2CD and 4LP vinyl set. Both of these feature the first two discs from the deluxe box. Note: If you purchase the super deluxe from the Bob Dylan store limited quantities come with a bonus two-CD set of the full live show from San Diego, 1979.

Trouble No More: The Bootleg Series Vol. 13 / 1979-1981 will be released on 3 November 2017. I’m sure the Amazon UK price, at the time of writing, will drop!
