5.0 out of 5 stars
Some say it's the best collection ..., September 15, 2004
This review is from: Masterpieces (Audio CD)
... and I'm not about to disagree. It was released on vinyl only in New Zealand, Australia and Japan in 1978. I listened to my vinyl version again a few days ago and on the basis of that was moved to track it down on CD. Mission accomplished! (If you're ever in Auckland, New Zealand, Real Groovy Records is well worth a visit).
The version of Spanish is the Loving Tongue on this is superb and I haven't seen it on anything else.
Don't buy it for the sleeve notes though!

Masterpieces, singles, and a few rare live performances, January 4, 2012
This review is from: Masterpieces (Audio CD)
Bob Dylan / Masterpieces: This is an excellent 3 CD overview of Dylan's career up to that point (the late 1970's). This set may seem redundant compared to the many other retrospectives on Dylan's work, and it largely is, with the exception of a few rare live performances. However, considering this set by itself, as it is, this is a Five Star set (but an unnecessary one).

A Hard to Find Must Have for the Collector, December 22, 2011
When this album came out all those years ago in Australia, American Dylan fans went nuts trying to get it, because of all the stuff on it that you couldn't get anywhere else, unless of course you owned the singles A lot of that extra stuff was B sides or in the the case of "George Jackson," a single that never made it to an LP in the States or Europe, but the Aussies, canny individuals that they were, saw a chance to make a different kind of Dylan record and they did. A great CD and well worth owning if you can find it.
