Description

A  rare single-sided  Bob Dylan promotional album, issued in 1967 by music publishing company Warner Bros 7 Arts Music Inc.

Between 1962 and 1964, Dylan cut demos of a number of his songs for his music publisher, M.Witmark & Sons. Peter Paul and Mary’s version of "Blowin’ In the Wind" had been a #2 pop hit, and Witmark wanted to pitch Dylan's songs to other artists.

In 1967, Witmark's owner, Warner Bros-7 Arts Music, compiled this promotional album to send to recording artists and producers, in an effort to generate covers of lesser-known Dylan songs.  It features seven of Dylan's demos, all recorded in Witmark's New York offices, except for “I’ll Keep It With Mine,” which is an alternate Columbia studio take from 1964.

In Near Mint condition.  A beautiful example of a highly collectible Dylan rarity.

[This promotional album was sent out without a cover; some examples were sent with sheet music, though this one was not.]


We grade all records visually, cover first, then disc; using the abbreviations M / NM / EX / VG with + and -. We try to describe everything as accurately as possible, and spot check any vinyl flaw that looks like it might make a sound. We regularly receive praise for our grading, but as all grading is subjective, we are happy to give a full refund for anything you aren't happy with no questions asked.

Unlike some eBay sellers, we don't feel the need to hype records by including long reviews or albums, quoting lyrics, making up arcane variations. We just grade accurately, describe any flaw, and sell only high quality rare records in fine condition.
