About this product

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.[4] 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.[1][5] 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 It comes in a two-fold digipak with an 8-page booklet of the original sleeve notes and unpublished 1963 photographs.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.[2] Columbia is a label of Sony Music Entertainment, whose name appears on the copyright line.[6][1] Amazon Japan still lists the article under this barcode.[3]

More about this product

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.[4] The old Barcodepedia page for this barcode, archived in 2007, described it as an audio CD.[7]
