Bob Dylan: A Basement Tapes acetate recording,

circa 1967,
a double-sided 12inch Emidisc with typewritten recording details, plain, die-cut card sleeve, accompanied by a letter concerning the provenance

Footnotes

The tracks on this acetate are all from the 1967 sessions known as 'The Basement Tapes'. All but two of the tracks listed finally appeared on the 1975 official release. However, quite soon after the recording, 'unofficial' issues of variations of more than 100 tracks from the sessions began circulating amongst the music industry and fans. This may be one of those.

Provenance:
Given to the vendor by Brian Jones in 1967/8 when she was working as the Fan Club Secretary for the band, 1964-1972.
