The seventh volume of Bob Dylan's Bootleg Series doubles as the soundtrack to No Direction Home, Martin Scorsese's feature-length documentary covering Dylan's career from its beginnings to 1966 (it was aired in two parts on PBS in September 2005 and released in expanded form on DVD that same month). Unlike the previous installments of The Bootleg Series, which focused exclusively on live concerts, No Direction Home is assembled from a variety of sources, including home recordings, publishing demos, alternate studio takes and live recordings. In fact, No Direction Home proceeds chronologically, filling in gaps between the proper albums or, more often, providing a parallel history of the most productive era of Dylan's career. This is the first Dylan record to offer an aural biography of Dylan. This does a superb job of tracing the development of Dylan as a musician, taking him from a young folkie singing standards, through the rush of his early standards, and to the visionary music he made once he went electric. As usual, this deluxe edition comes from the original mix-down masters and was transferred by Bernie Grundman to lacquer on Classic's all-tube analog cutting system. This deluxe four-LP set includes two alternate cover art gatefold jackets (Blonde on Blonde and Bringing It All Back Home) and a 60+ page 12" x 12" booklet, all housed in a special outer box.
