The Basement Tapes is a collection of over 100 songs recorded by Bob Dylan and his then-backing group, the Band, in the summer of 1967 in West Saugerties, New York, just outside Woodstock. Recording sessions began in a den known as "The Red Room" in Dylan's home, before moving to an improvised recording studio in the basement of a house known as Big Pink, where Rick Danko, Richard Manuel and Garth Hudson lived. Roughly half the songs recorded on The Basement Tapes were covers of traditional folk and blues ballads, rock songs, and country music, and half were original compositions by Dylan.

  • The Basement Tapes is a collection of over 100 songs recorded by Bob Dylan and his then-backing group, the Band, in the summer of 1967 in West Saugerties, New York, just outside Woodstock. Recording sessions began in a den known as "The Red Room" in Dylan's home, before moving to an improvised recording studio in the basement of a house known as Big Pink, where Rick Danko, Richard Manuel and Garth Hudson lived. Roughly half the songs recorded on The Basement Tapes were covers of traditional folk and blues ballads, rock songs, and country music, and half were original compositions by Dylan. Fourteen basement tape songs appeared in 1968 on a demo privately circulated by Dylan's publishing company, Dwarf Music. Public awareness of the basement recordings increased with the release of the first bootleg, Great White Wonder, in 1969. In 1975 CBS officially released The Basement Tapes, but only sixteen of the twenty-four songs were recorded by Dylan and the Band in Woodstock in 1967. The other eight tracks were recordings by the Band from different times. Subsequently, more and more basement recordings have been unearthed and illicitly released, culminating in the release of a five-CD bootleg set in 1990, The Genuine Basement Tapes, containing 108 tracks. Two songs, "I Shall Be Released" and "Santa-Fe" were officially released on The Bootleg Series Volumes 1–3 (Rare & Unreleased) 1961–1991 in 1991. "I'm Not There" was released on the soundtrack album accompanying the biographical film about Dylan, directed by Todd Haynes, named after the song. "Minstrel Boy" was released in 2013 on The Bootleg Series Vol. 10: Another Self Portrait (1969–1971). The songs of the Basement Tapes have been catalogued by Greil Marcus in his book Invisible Republic, and by Sid Griffin in his critical study Million Dollar Bash: Bob Dylan, the Band, and the Basement Tapes. On November 4, 2014, Columbia/Legacy issued The Bootleg Series Vol. 11: The Basement Tapes Complete, an official 6-CD box set containing 138 tracks which comprise all of Dylan's basement recordings, including 30 never-bootlegged tracks. Below is an alphabetical list of songs from these recording sessions. This list does not include songs that feature only the members of the Band. (en)
  • I Basement Tapes ("nastri della cantina") sono una lista di più di 100 canzoni registrate da Bob Dylan e dalla sua backing band dell'epoca, The Band, nell'estate del 1967 a , New York, appena fuori Woodstock. Quasi tutte le tracce furono incise nella cantina della casa di campagna affittata dai membri della Band, detta "Big Pink" a causa del colore rosato della costruzione; anche se per la precisione i luoghi di registrazione furono tre: il già citato scantinato, una stanza al piano superiore, la cosiddetta "Red Room", e la casa di Wittenberg Road dove si erano successivamente trasferiti Levon Helm e Rick Danko. Fu Garth Hudson che curò la registrazione originale delle tracce utilizzando un registratore Revox non professionale. Molti dei pezzi sono brani originali composti da Bob Dylan, ma la gran parte sono cover di vecchi brani tradizionali di musica folk, country e blues. "Big Pink", West Saugerties, New York, sede principale delle "sessioni in cantina", qui in una foto del 2006. Nel 1975, solo 24 tracce furono pubblicate nell'album ufficiale The Basement Tapes tratto dalle sessioni, anche se molti dei brani già circolavano da tempo in versione non ufficiale, dapprima nel bootleg Great White Wonder, generalmente considerato il primo bootleg della storia del rock, e successivamente in svariate altre pubblicazioni pirata quali A Tree with Roots, cofanetto comprendente 108 tracce, e The Genuine Basement Tapes. Due tracce ulteriori furono incluse a posteriori nel disco ufficiale The Bootleg Series Volumes 1-3 (Rare & Unreleased) 1961-1991 (1991). Il 4 novembre 2014, la Columbia/Legacy ha pubblicato The Bootleg Series Vol. 11: The Basement Tapes Complete, box set costituito da 6 CD contenenti ben 139 tracce, inclusi 30 brani inediti mai usciti in precedenza nemmeno su bootleg. Quella che segue è una lista in ordine alfabetico delle canzoni registrate durante le sessioni. La lista non include brani che vedono la partecipazione esclusivamente dei membri della Band. (it)
