The Japanese Sony site is offering the 'free' disc of unreleased material from this show with the purchase of 5 discs.

The disc reportedly has the following tracks:

1. The Times They Are A-Changin'
2. The Ballad of Hollis Brown
3. Boots of Spanish Leather
4. Lay Down Your Weary Tune
5. North Country Blues
6. With God On Our Side

Recorded October 26, 1963 at Carnegie Hall, New York City

This is a CHEAP ASS incentive. Six measly tracks from a legendary concert that's been released piecemeal over the course of 40 years (Columbia's worse than a crack dealer), and with this bonus disc, about half has been issued in total. Hey, if they put the whole thing on CD, I'd buy it, so would tons of Dylan fans, but making it available like this is damn stingy. Yeah, yeah "it's better than nothing"...imagine if they released "Return of the King" with 90 random minutes cut out and kept from the public. "Hey, it's better than nothing." Pfffft!

Also, they will not ship to Europe. Then again, as I'm a credit cardless loser what do I care. Why can't they just release the whole show? :evil:
