Bob Dylan Through the Open Window
Columbia Legacy has released Vol.18 of the Bob Dylan Bootleg Series. Through the Open Window covers the years 1956–1963. The collection is available as three physical sets: two-CD or four-LP “Highlights” versions that contain 42 tracks, and an eight-CD “Deluxe Edition Box Set” that contains 139 tracks and has a running time of 8 hours, 59 minutes. The “Highlights” package is available streaming at 24/192, but the other 97 tracks are only available in the big box. That big box also includes a 124-page hardback book containing full credits, 100 photos, and liner notes—really a substantial monograph—by Sean Wilentz, professor of American History at Princeton University and author of the book Bob Dylan in America.

Kind of a 'pinch me' situation
In these days of industry transformation, acquiring a brick-and-mortar hi-fi store is not for the faint of heart. That's just what 41-year-old Brandon Bartee did in August 2025. Bartee acquired Audio Concepts from Mark Ashworth, who was celebrating the store’s 40th anniversary, all 40 years under his ownership. Ashworth has been consulting for the store since the acquisition and will continue to do so for another few more months. Audio Concepts has been in the same location in North Dallas, near Preston Hollow, an affluent neighborhood about six miles north of downtown, for 37 of its 40 years. The store has four isolated demo rooms and a few other listening areas.
