In November 2026, Bob Dylan released «The Rolling Thunder Revue: The 1976 Live Recordings», a massive 39-disc box set that fully documents the second part of the legendary tour by the group Rolling Thunder Revue. Released through Columbia Records and Legacy Recordings, the release features a comprehensive collection of 381 tracks, 371 of which had not been previously published. The box includes liner notes by music journalist Mikal Gilmore and rare photographs. Among the notable moments captured are the first recorded performance of «Dink’s Song» in Gainesville (April 25, 1976) and the first recorded version of «Idiot Wind» in St. Petersburg (April 23, 1976). Reviews indicate that while the volume is impressive, the listening experience can be daunting, and the set does not benefit from the typical editorial cleanup characteristic of the Bootleg Series; rather, it represents a complete opening up of the archives.
