The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan – Bob Dylan (2003 hybrid SACD): version 1

Saved 2026-09-13 13:35 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added product/00827969032169: the 2003 Columbia hybrid SACD reissue of Bob Dylan's The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan (catalogue CH 90321, US/Canada, 16 Sep 2003, two-fold digipak), from the wanted list (old title "the freewheelin bob dylan"). Identity confirmed by MusicBrainz release b14ceb58 (barcode 827969032169), Discogs releases 7022011 and 3299464 (both print barcode 8 2796-90321-6 9, catalogue CH 90321; two pressings with different matrices) and Amazon.co.jp B0000C8AVE (EAN 0827969032169 printed). No catalogue conflict. Filled Release, 13 Tracks (MusicBrainz CD-layer durations, SACD-layer differences noted), Credits and Specifications (format, packaging, mastering, matrix codes for both pressings, Amazon listing size and weight) from Discogs and the Searching For A Gem fan discography; Markets US and CA derived (catalogue release country; Canadian sticker copy), JP sourced (Amazon.co.jp listing, new JPY 2680). Reused the existing brand/columbia-records and company/sony-music-entertainment keys declared by the other Columbia agents; gs1_prefix_owner derived to Sony Music Entertainment as on the Oh Mercy SACD page, since no source names the registrant of prefix 0827969. New stub: family/the-freewheelin-bob-dylan with the 2003 SACD, its European issue 512348 6, the 2004 CDs CK 92396 / 512348 2 and the 2012 MoFi SACD (no barcodes for the others). Not asserted: product status (Amazon JP says not discontinued by maker but shows only third-party sellers), a "record club issue" seen only in eBay titles, the label code and printed ℗ line, and any image (no licensed photo found). The archived 2007 Barcodepedia page is cited only for what it said; its "Produced in Italy" line was ignored.. Current is v2.

## About <!--about-->
This barcode belongs to the 2003 hybrid SACD reissue of The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, Bob Dylan's second studio album, first released by Columbia Records on 27 May 1963.[^wiki-freewheelin] Catalogue number CH 90321 came out in the US and Canada on 16 September 2003, remastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound with Steve Berkowitz as reissue producer.[^discogs][^mb] One disc carries both a CD layer and a stereo SACD layer. It comes in a two-fold digipak with an 8-page booklet of the original sleeve notes and unpublished 1963 photographs. The European issue has a different catalogue number, 512348 6.[^gem] Columbia is a label of Sony Music Entertainment, whose name appears on the copyright line.[^wiki-columbia][^discogs] Amazon Japan still lists the article under this barcode.[^amazon-jp]

In 2002 the album was among the first 50 recordings added to the Library of Congress's National Recording Registry. It reached number 22 in the United States and number one in the UK in 1965.[^wiki-freewheelin] The old Barcodepedia page for this barcode, archived in 2007, described it as an audio CD.[^bp-2007]
