CD Reviews
Buy the 2 cd version instead!

"I will be very brief in describing what I feel is a terrible disservice to Bob Dylan fans everywhere. To expect fans to shell out $100.00 or more for a 12 song bonus disc, and a small book with a collection of single cover photo's, that most fans will never look at again after one glance is outrageous. The alternative 2 cd set is a fabulous collection of unreleased gems at a fraction of the cost. You also get a very informative booklet with that set as well. My hunch here, is that in usual record company greed, they will release a new set sometime after the new year, that will have the third bonus disc included. By doing that, they will try to bait all those who already purchased the 2 cd set, but couldn't afford the deluxe set, into considering buying again. I will not fall for it, and neither should you. These are tough economic times, and for Dylan's record company to market a product to his fans in this fashion is a disgrace!!!!!!"
Indeed a ripoff...

"The price on this set is simply unconscionable, even with Amazon's heavy discount. The one good thing about it is that now there will be even more Dylan bootlegs...of the third disc..."
The music and packaging is 5 star..the price=no star

"yes..the price is a disgrace..what on earth sony are thinking is mind boggling..what is worse is there is a single disc version just to confuse everyone...why on earth sony didnt release this 3 disc version as the only version and retail it for 40 to 60 dollars is pathetic..HOWEVER,im sure its just as silly to give it a one star reveiw just because of the price..and have those who have canned this actually heard and seen it?? because the third disc is definetley 4 or 5 star...Marching to the city..why was this left of any album???, its a shuffling sleazy boogie number that should be heard and and and man the version of 'trying to get to heaven" is AWESOME..BEAUTIFUL..SENSATIONAL...as is the rest of the disc..and the lavish books have beautiful thick covers and lovely quality paper and printing...so please folks lets not let the price distract you as this is a truly awseome release..the packaging is beautiful and the music..well..its just wonderful..mississsipi..someday baby.an awesome slow haunting,much diferent CANT WAIT.and one of bobs greatest ever songs cross the green mountain...essential...."
The only Dylan album I don't own and I won't buy it until it

"I own literally all of Dylan's albums and over the years I have had the majority of them on multiple formats: record, CD, and cassette. Ordinarily, I would have purchased the 2 CD edition of Tell Tale Signs, but I know that my enjoyment of it will always be compromised the fact that this 2 disc set only contains two-thirds of the music on this release. Since I refuse to pay the outrageous price for the full 3 CD set, I am stuck waiting until all of the music is re-released in a reasonably priced format.
I understand that the record companies are losing money due to rampant illegal downloading. The thing is: I don't like the sound of MP3s and I prefer my albums to be tangible items that I can store on a shelf. Why are the record companies alienating people like me that want to play by the rules?"

"The air is getting hotter
There's a rumble in the sky
Amazing! Do yourself a favor and just download all three discs. It is certainly "worth" the price but its not necessary. Bob has enough money. I just spent [...] on a balcony seat at his show. Anyway,
The album is amazing. The third disc has some great songs. Its a must for any Dylan fan and anyone buying the first two might as well get the third, or they will just feel empty and incomplete.
Bob is a shifty guy. Some of these songs would have made his last couple of records even better if they had been included. The few live tracks just blew me away. "Tryin' to get to Heaven" is incredible.
This record is a wonderful addition to they great pantheon of Dylan. The man is just as great now as he was in his twenties, perhaps greater. There is wisdom in these recordings."
