New Lp Pressing Process (wonder If Steve Knows About This)

[ListenUp]

Saw this on eBay and got a good laugh out of it.I hope this was just a typo.
Enjoy!

(When Bob Dylan completely scrapped the first version of this album and re-recorded the whole thing from the scratch, he seems to have had second thoughts about the cover, as well. This legendary album, one of the most veneered Rock albums ever made, ....)

I think he must be writing about the layers of interpretation of the lyrics....

Hey, those were my layers of editing you edited out!!

Veneered?

Like with a nice tamo ash, or mahogany? Maybe a rosewood? Bubinga? :D

[Sckott]

So Patrick... How do YOU know so much about wood and veneer? ;)

[Pinknik]

He's a subgenius, of course. Huh-huh, you said wood.

When Bob recorded Blood on the Tracks in NYC it was distributed in acetate and the rear of the jacket reflected the lyrics on that version. When his brother heard it he convinced Bob that it sounded a bit off because he played everything in the same open tuning, and perhaps some of the tracks failed to cover his personal tracks. Thus he visited his brother in MN and rerecorded several of the tracks. The release is a mix of the two recording sessions. The rear cover was changed after a while to cover the fact that it discussed lyrics on longer on the album. Then the jacket notes won a Grammy or sometihing like that so the rear of the jacket was changed back. :D

Spent over an hour picking out a wood for those DIY puppies. The guy selling me veneer had "celebrity specials" -- veneers left over from Tom Cruise's airplane and Reba McEntire's office.

Very pretty.

Thanks Piknik. The picture belies the hours and hours that went into them.
