If you’ve been waiting for something special in the world of music, here it is: the Columbia Music and Legacy Records release of Bob Dylan’s Through The Open Window: The Bootleg Series Vol. 18. The volume contains extremely rare and never-before-heard recordings—jams in friends’ apartments, small house party performances, outtakes from Columbia records, and club renditions. The album’s curation traces Dylan’s development as a songwriter and folk artist from the beginning of his career through his rapid rise to stardom. And the songs capture the moment of their making. —Henry McGrath
