Content.
It encompasses recordings released between the years 1973 and 1991, the time period since the previous volume of the series, released in 1971. All of Dylan's studio albums from this time span are represented, with the exceptions of: "Dylan", compiled by Columbia without Dylan's input; "The Basement Tapes", consisting of material predating this time period; "Saved"; and "Empire Burlesque". The track "Groom's Still Waiting at the Altar" was added to later pressings of "Shot of Love" after initially being released on the flipside of a single. It includes four Top 40 singles and one previously unreleased track, an outtake from the sessions for "Oh Mercy", the song "Dignity" with a new backing track overdubbed and produced in the autumn of 1994 by Brendan O'Brien.
Six of its tracks had been released as singles in the United States. "Changing of the Guards" and "Jokerman" did not make the singles chart, while "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" peaked at No. 12, "Tangled Up in Blue" at No. 31, "Hurricane" at No. 33, and "Gotta Serve Somebody" at No. 24. The liner notes provide a more detailed track-by-track personnel listing.
In 2003, this album was released along with the other two Dylan greatest hits sets in one four-disc package, as "Greatest Hits Volumes I–III".
