Songs
Over the band's seven releases, some songs appear one one another, e.g. "Cashing in on Christmas (Dub)" appears on both Bootleg and the third version of the band's self-titled debut album. Also, songs such as "Hey Mr. Bassman" and "Hey Mr. Drummer" appear as separate tracks on the second version of Bad News, whilst together as one track on the third version of Bad News using just "Hey Mr. Drummer" as the title.
Here is a list to show which songs are identical to which, also featuring the spoken tracks, with a track position to show where the song is on the particular release. This list does not show you the track times, as for one single song they can be different when it appears on one release than another due to segueing (an example is "Bad News Rehearsal", which lasts five minutes on the 1989 Bad News but four minutes on the 2004 Bad News)

Famous quotes containing the word songs:
“We who with songs beguile your pilgrimage
And swear that Beauty lives though lilies die,
We Poets of the proud old lineage
Who sing to find your hearts, we know not why,”
—James Elroy Flecker (1884–1919)
“How learned he bitter songs of lost Iambe,
Or that a cup-shaped breast is nothing vile?”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“Dylan is to me the perfect symbol of the anti-artist in our society. He is against everything—the last resort of someone who doesn’t really want to change the world.... Dylan’s songs accept the world as it is.”
—Ewan MacColl (1915–1989)
