In 1974, Bob Dylan embarked on an extensive tour with his old backing band. Now, they, too, were universally known - as The Band - and the double bill hit indoor arenas across North America for 40 concerts over 30 dates and 21 cities. The tour became one of the largest and highest-profile of the era, in no small part due to the promotional efforts of David Geffen, who'd spurred on the talks and had recently lured Dylan away from Columbia Records to his own Asylum label. While Dylan's Asylum

Both Sides (All the Sides)
Phil Collins' fifth album, 1993's Both Sides, is getting the deluxe treatment on vinyl. The 5LP box Both Sides (All the Sides) features the original album, demos, B-sides, and live tracks. The 2016 CD expansion of Both Sides featured a mix of rare B-sides, demos and unreleased live material - an approach that stymied some fans for its lack of comprehensiveness.

This set includes all three of Fields' Boardwalk LPs - Dimples (1980), Mr. Look So
