If the people behind Bob Dylan’s new 1974 Live Recordings had a sense of humor, the set would come plastered with a sticker reading: “FOR SICKOS ONLY.” With 27 discs containing 431 performances (more than 24 hours!) drawn from Dylan and the Band’s hotly anticipated return to the stage in early ‘74, it’s a massive archival haul aimed at the ridiculously obsessed, the hopeless completist. If that’s not you, stick to the three-LP “highlights” release from Third Man. But if you’re like us and love this kind of deep immersion in a very specific Dylan era, you gotta get the whole thing. Admit it: you’re a sicko, too.
