Allen Ginsberg - The Last Word On First Blues (Expanded Reissue)

In 1971, Allen called on Bob Dylan to record a slew of songs: political, gay rights, and just plain wacky. These 1971 recordings remained dormant until 1983 when they were released as First Blues - coupled with 1976 sessions produced by Columbia Records exec. John Hammond, and 1981 sessions. Along the way, Beat Generation legend Peter Orlovsky and Rolling Thunder Revue sideman David Mansfield joined the festivities too. First Blues has become a cult classic - Omnivore Recordings is proud to reissue that, plus much more. A deluxe package, this 3-CD set contains the original double LP, plus eleven previously unissued songs, plus demos and live recordings including Dylan.
