xx/xx/65Electric Gashcat (the Nite Crash Ballads)4B+79min+80min+80min+80min

is an organized compilation of circulating Bob Dylan Columbia Studios Recording Session Outtakes for 1965-1966. As with the FSorJOTS project, alternate mixes and live performances are included for interest and comparison. In particular, the live performances were selected as a sampling of what the Nite Crash experience could be like outside the studio, mid-late 1965 and into 1966. Multiple stage band lineups were used with noticeable technical differences and contrasting playing styles. There was a world of evolution in presentation maturity, song tempo, and togetherness of vocals and support playing. Little surprise that the same could be said for the studio sessions themselves. Sometimes it makes sense to try and place things in time line order and then picture the music (and the musical processes) as the sessions came down individually and over a period of time. Hopefully, Electric Gashcat can be helpful in attaining such a goal. At the same time, we also appreciate the slightly improved sanity of having these classic takes located and arranged in a more accessible fashion! Maybe you will too. As always, ENJOY - and buy Bob Dylan's officially released recordings (you owe it to him; you owe it to yourself)., The FSorJOTS comments regarding source quality and information accuracy likewise apply here. Please note that this collection is "approximately" chronological. One person's interpretation of the dating and numbering on specific takes may not always coincide with that of another, nor with what the discographers, or even Dylan's record company, sometimes tell us. Certain takes and sessions during this era have been notoriously difficult to pin down. They still are. Here we've tried to consider the best available published (or sometimes unpublished) information to make determinations where there have been major questions. Some explanations of the track placements are detailed in the supplemental notes for the discs. You may or may not agree. Remember, little about this has ever been cast on stone tablets.
