The music that Bob Dylan and members of The Band so famously recorded in a nondescript house in upstate New York in 1967 has intrigued fans for decades.

Columbia Records will release Bob Dylan’s The Bootleg Series, Vol. 10 – Another Self Portrait (1969-1971) on Aug. 27. The label says the set will bring a “fresh perspective to one of the artist’s most controversial periods and revealing it to be one of his most wonderfully creative and prolific.”
A previously unreleased Bob Dylan demo recording will be released next month on Record Store Day, and the song is set to appear on a future collection of unreleased Dylan recordings.
