Mono box set to be released in October

Again: [www.bobdylanisis.com]

I still own several of the original albums in mono ... but this looks quite good. Wish the linear notes were by Bob, instead of Greil M.mind you, but you can't have everything ... like still no Limerick.

Go with the flow ... enjoy the moment. Cheers!

I'd settle for no liner notes at all rather than Greil Marcus.

no to pretentious men in silly glasses

This appears to me a case of aping last year's Beatles mono box. Though that box really looked good (and sounded OK but definitely no improvement to the vinyl), miniature replicas of the LP sleeves will never beat the original 12".
Also, who needs liner notes by Greil Marcus? What does he know about the mono versions. Why not let the Columbia engineers originally employed with the mono mixing do the talking? Perhaps sole surviving '60's producer Bob Johnston can shed a light on the processing of the particular mono albums he was involved with.

.. oh. didn't see this thread-

would someone be able to advise whether these Monos will be the same sound mixes (? not sure of the term) as the SunDazed vinyls ?
(that are stitting, 10 of 'em, heretofore oh so proudly--, shrink wrapped on my shelf. groan)
