The Bootleg Series, Vol. 10 - Another Self Portrait (1969-1971) is the latest installment of Dylan's acclaimed Bootleg Series, augmenting the original session masters of Self Portrait with rarities and unreleased recordings to bring fresh perspective to one of Dylan's most controversial periods. While the original Self Portrait was a deliberate act of iconoclasm that shattered Dylan's image as "generational spokesperson" while stretching the boundaries of pop music and his own, the album's successor, New Morning , marked Dylan's return to songwriting. Another Self Portrait gives fans a chance to reappraise the pivotal recordings that marked Dylan's artistic transformation as the 1960s ended and the 1970s began. The set is available in a standard two-disc set and in a four-disc deluxe box set , as well as digitally: https://smarturl.it/BDX_iTunes .
" Another Self Portrait is one of the most important, coherent and fulfilling
Bob Dylan albums ever released." -
David Fricke , Rolling Stone
" Another Self Portrait is an illustration of Dylan's vast command of the folk song, a laboratory for transforming some of his most familiar hits, and a testament to his powers as an interpretive singer." - Ben Greenman , The New Yorker
