To the Valley Below: Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue Celebrated With Documentary and Box Set

April 26, 2019 By Sam Stone 14 Comments

Preliminary details have begun to emerge about an upcoming multi-disc box set and Martin Scorsese-directed Netflix documentary celebrating the 1975 leg of Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue tour.  As first reported in Variety, Dylan's legendary tour will be commemorated on June 7 with a 14-CD, 148-track live box set.  The mammoth collection brings together all five professionally recorded Dylan sets from October and November 1975, as well as recently discovered rehearsals recorded at New York's S.I.R. Studios, and a bonus disc of miscellaneous rare live tracks.  [A full track listing for the box set was briefly posted on a pre-order page at Dylan's web store, but it has since been removed.]

On June 12, Netflix will premier Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese. The documentary runs over two hours and tells the story of the wild 1975 tour with help from many of the guests who joined Dylan onstage that year.  The film will also screen in select theaters on June 11 in London, Paris, Washington, D.C., Nashville, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Boston, Austin, Dallas, Houston, Portland, Tulsa, Tempe, Chicago, Cleveland, Los Angeles, New York City, Minneapolis, Bologna and Sydney.

We'll have more exciting details about the Rolling Thunder Revue box set (including the confirmed track listing) and documentary when Legacy Recordings unveils their official press release. So stay tuned for more coverage!

Sam followed his love for music to the classroom, earning a B.A. from Towson University in Electronic Media and Film, concentrating on radio and audio production, as well as an M.A. in Audio Arts from Syracuse University. He has put his knowledge and skills to work at prominent reissue labels and is excited to bring his perspectives on catalog music to a broader audience. When he’s not writing for The Second Disc, Sam can be found researching about music, talking about Joni Mitchell’s career, and adding another box set to his Amazon wish list.

      It's not going to be $200. I'd much rather they offer us 14 discs than cater to people who don't wanna pay.

      I suspect this will be over $100, but not a lot more than that. Postings that appeared on some international Amazon sites, etc., seemed to suggest a price point under $150, maybe even closer to $100. Hoping that’s the case.

    I’m sure this will be available in a truncated 2 or 3 CD “ highlights “ edition—or it should be.
    That’s really all some of us really need.
    The box I’m guessing will list at $149 or so and sell for about 20 or 30 less....

      Will they really do a 2 or 3 disc highlights release when we already have Live 1975 a 2CD release in volume 5 (2002) of the Bob Dylan Bootleg Series?

        Good point.
        But that was 15 years ago and I’m not sure this new Rolling Thunder Box is an “official “ Bootleg Series installment. It’s more of s tie-in to the documentary.

          No Direction Home's (previous Scorcesse film about Dylan) soundtrack was part of the Bob Dylan Bootleg Series (vol. 7) in 2005.

    I wish they'd put the Netflix doc on the set as a DVD because it won't get a DVD release otherwise.

      How do you know that?

      There may well be a physical release at some point. Even some Netflix series, such as the recently canceled Marvel shows, had DVD and blu-ray releases.

      I’d expect a physical release, hopefully with copious bonus content, at some point.

        There has never been a physical release of a Netflix movie that I know of except the last Cloverfield film and that was because Paramount owned it. Take for example the acclaimed ROMA, the acclaimed Amanda Knox documentary, Brad Pitt and Will Smith movies. No DVD releases. The series are different...they're advertisements for Netflix series, essentially. I would wager that there will never be a physical release, which is awfully sad.

          Wasn’t 11/22/63 released on DVD/BR? We recently rented the physical 2-disc set from Netflix.

            That was a mini-series, not a standalone movie. The only actual feature-length movie to initially air on Netflix and then get a physical release was the final Cloverfield movie, as far as I know.

          There have been other Netflix DVDs though, as has been pointed out. Plus, this is a Bob Dylan release, and Scorsese involved. People will be interested in a physical release. I bet it gets one, as a sort of companion piece to No Direction Home.
