Summary: Great treasure--Early Dylan at his Prime
Comment: I'm one of those listeners who gave up on Dylan after he went electric. Well, I did drift back with Nashville Skyline, but after that it was all work and no play for both Dylan and me. After seeing the excellent exhibit at the Morgan Library in New York City, I realized I just need more of that early Bob. (I did listen into the 1961 Carnegie Hall concert which they had at the show, and that's what really made me say, "You gotta find some of that early, wonderful, brilliant Bobby D.")
The other day I wandered into Starbucks in Charlottesville, and there was a pile of this particular recording, and I bought one for the long ride north. What a pleasure. So why give it only four stars? I've heard that wonderful recording from 1961 with the chatter between songs, and Dylan in such a great mood that he's having a good time. I had a great time listening to this milestone recording, but with the way songs were cut and edited, I only wished for more. Bootleggers of the world, thanks for saving music for future generations. Now, if we could only get legitimate companies to issue that music in the near perfect state that this performance has been issued.

Summary: Set List
Comment: Some great reviews here. I guess some people may wonder what the original set list was. I've gotten it off the original tapes and some web sites. Some people claim that it was one long show. Some claim it was multiple nights. I wasn't born yet myself, but the order seems acurate by the recordings I've heard.
Dylan is one to constantly refine his work through live performance. So, it's always interesting when you get to hear a real early live show. This album is terrific.
Note: This is not the set list included on this Album. It is from the original show that the album was taken from.

Summary: Amazing!
Comment: A great Dylan record from his folk days, when he sang his songs, and didn't talk or whine them. I picked this one up from Starbucks, and I love it! Having never heard the original Gaslight tapes, I don't know how complete this recording is, but I do know that all the songs fit very well. Every song is beautifully done, but there are a few that I feel are specifically worthy of mention by me, a Dylan novice.
"A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall" is spectacularly performed. The things in the background such as coughing, glasses clinking, and a car horn honking just add to the effect, and the haunting singing of the crowd gives me the chills. Plus, there is a line here that I wish he had included in the final song: "I heard the sound of one person who cried he was human." Beautiful.
"John Brown" also became one of my favorites. The back of the CD case says that tracks 4 through 10 are traditional, but it sounds like a Dylan one to me -- did he in fact write it? Either way, it is a deep and moving performance. I nearly cried when I heard it first.
And finally, Dylan's version of "Barbara Allen" is perhaps the best I've heard. Simon and Garfunkel did a light, up-beat version of this ancient folk tune, and it just didn't fit the piece. Dylan's adaptation, somewhat reminiscent (or rather, preminiscent) of the tune for "Boots of Spanish Leather," accurately captures the solemnity and hope of the song.
The album is full of amazing songs, and I would highly recommend it.

Summary: In response to Jack Priest's review...
Comment: I too am a little disappointed that Sony, Dylan, Rosen, whoever decided to make this a truncated version of the Gaslight tapes which are indeed the very first bootleg CD I ever bought (not to mention having it on tapes and vinyl for years...). But it's a great batch of performances and it sounds great on this release. However, to set the record straight (and in reponse to Jack Priest's review here where he states: "Why they left off songs like "Black Cross", "No More Auction Block" and some very good others is beyond me, because it wouldn't have cost one lickin', stickin' cent more"), it DOES cost more to include more songs on an album. It doesn't cost more to manufacture it, true, but you have to pay publishers for every song on the album. And while many of the songs could be construed as Public Domain and thus not subject to royalties, in reality, somebody is usually able to lay claim to a song and demand royalties for it... Anyway, this is still a great album, and I think the fact that Sony & Dylan have been pretty generous about opening their vaults (and others) to release these kinds of albums is commendable.

Summary: Live At the Gaslight
Comment: Some good, very very early Dylan, a mix of age-old songs (Barbara Allen, Cocaine, Handsome Molly) and new (for the time, anyway) Dylan material (Hard Rain, Don't Think Twice, Rocks And Gravel John Brown). This was way back in his protest period, so it's only natural that the two best performances (Hard Rain, John Brown) were both protest songs with very vivid imagery. I'd say the version of Hard Rain is better than even the studio original! Of course, I also like Don't Think Twice, though in this case perfer the classic original. The only weak song is Barbara Allen, it drags on way too long (even for Dylan) and the story is awful.
