The official Bob Dylan store gives the same four-side layout for this pressing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe recordings come from the fourth and fifth of eight concerts Dylan played at the Nippon Budokan Hall in Tokyo, on February 28 and March 1, 1978, early in his 1978 world tour. Don DeVito produced. The band was built from the players on Street-Legal and enlarged for the road: Steve Douglas on saxophone, flute and recorder, Billy Cross on lead guitar, Alan Pasqua on keyboards, Rob Stoner on bass, Ian Wallace on drums, Bobbye Hall on percussion, David Mansfield on pedal steel, violin and mandolin, Steven Soles on acoustic guitar, and Debi Dye, Jo Ann Harris and Helena Springs singing backup. The arrangements recast songs from across the catalog, from \"Mr. Tambourine Man\" to \"Forever Young.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe double LP was first issued in Japan on August 21, 1978. Heavy importing and at least one counterfeit European edition led to a worldwide release on April 23, 1979; it then reached No. 13 in the US, where it was certified gold, and No. 4 in the UK. Reviews were divided. Robert Christgau gave it a C+, while Janet Maslin, writing for Rolling Stone, called it \"a very contentious effort\" and, \"for the most part, a victorious one.\" Both Tokyo concerts were later issued in full as The Complete Budokan 1978, in November 2023.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 1 — Side A\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMr. Tambourine Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShelter from the Storm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Minus Zero\/No Limit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBallad of a Thin Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Think Twice, It's All Right\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 1 — Side B\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaggie's Farm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne More Cup of Coffee (Valley Below)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLike a Rolling Stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Shall Be Released\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIs Your Love in Vain?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoing, Going, Gone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 2 — Side C\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"12\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlowin' in the Wind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust Like a Woman\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOh, Sister\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimple Twist of Fate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll Along the Watchtower\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Want You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 2 — Side D\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col start=\"18\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll I Really Want to Do\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnockin' on Heaven's Door\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForever Young\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Times They Are A-Changin'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComplete the Collection\u003c\/strong\u003e (8)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/bob-dylan-blonde-on-blonde-mono-vinyl\"\u003eBlonde on Blonde\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/bob-dylan-john-wesley-harding-vinyl\"\u003eJohn Wesley Harding\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/bob-dylan-nashville-skyline-vinyl\"\u003eNashville Skyline\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/bob-dylan-desire-lp\"\u003eDesire\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/bob-dylan-the-rolling-thunder-revue-1976-fort-worth-texas-may-16th-vinyl\"\u003eThe Rolling Thunder Revue 1976: Fort Worth Texas, May 16th\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBob Dylan At Budokan (this release)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/bob-dylan-world-gone-wrong-lp\"\u003eWorld Gone Wrong\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/bob-dylan-together-through-life-lp\"\u003eTogether Through Life\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 198029984118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sony Legacy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.6.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Columbia","offers":[{"title":"NEW \/ NEW","offer_id":48277844000926,"sku":"EVP-A10972CA-NEW-NEW-NONE0000","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/8801\/1422\/files\/bob-dylan-at-budokan-black-vinyl-packshot.jpg?v=1792125773","url":"https:\/\/evergreenvinyl.com\/products\/bob-dylan-bob-dylan-at-budokan-black-vinyl","provider":"Evergreen Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
