Why It Matters

Here we have the second Bob Dylan bootleg ever released, 1969’s Stealin.

Side one consists of outtakes from the Highway 61 and Bringing It sessions. Side two includes studio outtakes and a few cuts from the legendary 1961 “Minnesota Tapes.”  The full track listing is:

A-Side:

1. Can I Crawl Out Your Window
2. It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry
3. Killing Me Alive (Sitting On A Barbed Wire Fence)
4. If You Gotta Go
5. She Belongs To Me
6. My Love Waits Like Silence (Love – 0/No Limits)

B-Side:

1. It’s All Over Now Baby Blue
2. Cough Song (Suze)
3. New Orleans
4. That’s All Right Babe (That’s All Right Mama)
5. Hard Times In New York Town/Stealin’
6. Wade In The Water
7. Cocaine

This record has been bootlegged a bunch of times, but the first is the Har-Kub version. Prices are kind of all over the place, but 25 bucks is a safe bet. Happy hunting.
