This week on Definitely Dylan Live we’re finally diving into the Bootleg Series 15: Travelin' Thru, 1967 - 1969. Laura and Robert discuss the contents of the set, the highlights and the oddballs, and of course play some tunes from it!
Correction: I think we got the title of the box set wrong and called it “1967-1970” (instead of “1967-1969”), but then we ironically overlooked that the sessions with Earl Scruggs were in fact from May 1970 and not 1969 (so there’s a year between the Johnny Cash Show appearance and the Scruggs sessions, which could account for the change in his voice). Two mistakes on our part (but also, can we agree that if material from 1970 is included, it should be called “1967-1970”??)
Correction 2: Rosanne Cash is the eldest daughter of country musician Johnny Cash and Vivian Liberto Cash Distin, Johnny Cash's first wife. We erroneously said her mother was June Carter Cash.
