With all the Dylan talk going on this week, I thought it would be nice to visit some of the artist’s unreleased outtakes from the Drunkard Archives I have been enjoying over the years. Culled from the Freewheelin’ album sessions (NYC, April-Nov 1962) , these outtakes provide an interesting insight and context for where Dylan was at the time compared to the tracks released on the album proper. Consider this the flipside of Freewheelin’.
