Pitkään on huhuttu ja odotettu sitä että legendaarinen Blood On The Tracks (1975) -albumi saisi oman paikkansa Bootleg Series –julkaisuohjelmassa. Ja nyt tämä monien Dylan -fanien haave on toteutumassa, sillä 2.marraskuuta 2018 julkaistaan BS Vol. 14, jossa on ainoastaan BOTT- materiaalia.

Jos oikeasti harrastaa Dylania niin kannatta hankkia 6 CD:n deluxe-boksi, koska siinä on eniten julkaisematonta materiaalia. Hinta tosin on kieltämättä aika suolainen eli 145 euroa.  Mutta hinta on aina suhteellinen käsite, sillä yksi yö helsinkiläisessä hotellissa maksaa nykyään saman verran.  Eli asiaa näin tarkastellen 145 euroa ei olekaan paljon.

Alla Deluxe -boksin 6 CD:n sisältö:
