Bob Dylan 1976 Rolling Thunder Revue 39-Disc Box Set Coming
by Best Classic Bands StaffColumbia Records and Legacy Recordings have announced the release Bob Dylan’s The Rolling Thunder Revue: The 1976 Live Recordings on Nov. 6, 2026. The 39-CD box set, says the press release, “fully captures this tour alongside a stellar company of backing musicians and guest artists, yet another breakthrough in Dylan’s performance career.” A 3-LP set of the complete May 16, 1976, Fort Worth, Tex., show, remixed from the original multi-track tapes, will be released on the same date. The 39-CD set is available to order here.
Listen to “Going, Going, Gone” live from that concert
Beginning on April 18, 1976, in Lakeland, Fla., and concluding in Salt Lake City on May 25, 1976, the tour spanned 27 dates, almost all of which are represented in the 371 never-before-heard tracks. “A storied and brilliant era of Dylan’s career,” the announcement states, “the tour’s tapes unveil how Dylan’s progressively furious performances all culminate in the complete Fort Collins recording on May 23, 1976, remixed from the original multi-track tapes, which yielded the special Hard Rain, broadcast live only once before.”
‘“Idiot Wind’ in NBC’s Hard Rain is among the most rageful and brilliant performances Dylan ever committed before camera,” writes writer and music journalist Mikal Gilmore in his exclusive liner notes essay. “Yet again, it was for nought…One night, one hour only. It never saw any time in a theater. It was never rebroadcast, never issued as a video tape or DVD. It’s gone. All that’s left of the Rolling Thunder movie that was never made but instead played out on stages for four-and-a-half weeks in the spring of 1976, is what you now hold in your hands. Play the music, close your eyes, and watch the story.”
The second leg of the tour saw Dylan welcome old friends and collaborators to his troupe. Dylan reunited with Joan Baez to perform a set of duets across many dates, including performances of “Blowin’ in the Wind” and “Railroad Boy.” Some of the other participants include Willie Nelson, Joni Mitchell, Roger McGuinn, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, and Allen Ginsberg. Dylan’s band included bassist Rob Stoner, violinist Scarlet Rivera, drummer Howie Wyeth (who had all worked on the chart-topping album Desire), guitarists Mick Ronson (of David Bowie’s Spiders from Mars), Steven Soles, David Mansfield and T Bone Burnett.
