Original price was: $59.99.$30.00Current price is: $30.00.Three decades before he released The Philosophy of Modern Song an insightful book devoted to 66 tunes that both impacted his career and the music world at large Bob Dylan issued Good As I Been to You. The under-heralded 1992 album, Dylans first solo acoustic album in nearly 30 years and first all-covers effort in nearly 20 years, can be seen as a prophetic prelude to what has become the Nobel Laureates celebrated late-career arc. Its also an absorbing continuation of the custom Dylan has embraced since he first picked up a guitar. Resonating with the same originality, honesty, resolve, and age- and timedefying relevance as the seminal Anthology of American Folk Music that fired Dylans imagination as a kid in small-town Minnesota, this record contains the type of music the maverick singer-songwriter was playing during his acoustic sets at his period Never Ending Tour shows.
Sourced from the original master tapes, pressed at RTI, and housed in a Stoughton jacket, Mobile Fidelitys numbered-edition 180g SuperVinyl LP as well as the companion hybrid SACD of Good As I Been to You reveal the immediacy, detail, and stripped down nature of recording sessions that took place in Dylans garage studio in California. Simple, raw, and unplugged, the effort presents Dylan in peak form and showcases a diversity of vocal phrasing, soulful chording, harmonica accents, and closeup ambience that on these reissues emerge like never before. As the first-ever audiophile editions of this almost-lost classic, these collectible versions also benefit from natural tones, superb balances, and visceral directness. Good As I Been to You? Dylan has seldom been better.
