NICK DERISO: Recorded during Dylan's songwriting rehab, after the 1966 motorcycle wreck, and not released until a decade later.These classic home recordings -- done with The Band in the legendary old house known as Big Pink -- showed even Bob Dylan throwaways were table scraps worth fighting over.
Nick's Pick: A simply beautiful "Tears of Rage." The Band's late keyboardist Richard Manuel, in 1985, said the group just elaborated on whatever Dylan mumbled: "I couldn't run upstairs and say, 'What's this mean, Bob -- Now, the heart is filled with gold, as if it were a purse?'"
Solid gold, indeed.
