Ostensibly, Dylan was cutting demos for other bands to record, but clearly a lot more was going on – especially considering the amount of time devoted to covering old standards. "We were playing with absolute freedom," guitarist Robbie Robertson said. "We weren't doing anything we thought anyone else would ever hear, as long as we lived. . . . It was like the Watergate tapes. A lot of the stuff, Bob would say, 'We should destroy this.' "

I've had some old bootlegs for years but for them to release the complete set... wow. Fuck.
