Reclaiming the forgotten decade: Bob Dylan's Springtime in New York: The Bootleg Series Vol. 16 (1980-1985) by Harold Lepidus

  (Sony Legacy) What follows is my review of the newest installment of Bob Dylan’s Bootleg Series -Volume 16 - Springtime in New York … out September 17.  (bobdylan.com ) It’s a five disc set covering the first half of the 1980s, and it’s basically divided into three sections related to three albums. The first two discs (from 1980-81) begin with the end of the SAVED era but focuses on the sessions for the 1981 album SHOT OF LOVE. Discs three and four document the sessions for his 1983 album  INFIDELS, and the final disc takes us on a journey from the unfairly neglected Real Live to 1985’s EMPIRE BURLESQUE.  Trailer First I’d like to place this set in perspective.

I had attended two “Outlaw” shows earlier this month, one at the Xfinity Theater in Hartford, the other the next day at the Xfinity Center in Mansfield, MA (the one the locals still refer to as “Great Woods.”) While I noticed the themes of division and separation at the actual shows, mostly referring to the end of some sort of romantic relationship, since then I couldn't help but identify certain strands that infiltrated the set list, which ...
