Anyone have this CD ?

Here is what Amazon lists:

Garcia plays Dylan - Import - Remastered

Disc: 1
1. It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry -- Jerry Garcia Band
2. Tough Mama -- Jerry Garcia Band
3. Positively 4th Street -- Legion of Mary
4. Wicked Messenger -- Jerry Garcia Band
5. Knockin' On Heaven's Door -- Jerry Garcia Band
6. Simple Twist of Fate -- Jerry Gacia Band
7. I Shall Be Released -- Jerry Garcia Band
8. When I Paint My Masterpiece -- Jerry Garcia Band
9. She Belongs To Me -- Grateful Dead
10. Forever Young -- Jerry Garcia Band
11. Tangled Up in Blue -- Jerry Garcia Band
12. Senor (Tales of Yankee Power) -- Jerry Garcia Band
13. Visions of Johanna -- Grateful Dead
14. Mighty Quinn (Quinn, The Eskimo) -- Grateful Dead
15. It's All Over Now, Baby Blue -- Grateful Dead

Comments reference "Postcards from the Hanging" - which I have, but the above disc is all Jerry singing and not Bobby.

Your thoughts, recommendations ?

There was an official release of this several years ago:

Postcards from the Hanging was a different Dead covering Dylan release which included Bobby lead vocals on about half of the songs:

I'm a deadhead, so biased in favor, but both of these releases are excellent. I'd lean towards the jerry one for obvious reasons. There are some fiery riffs in the knockin, i shall be released and masterpiece as i recall.

I'd question the quality if not the legality of an import of a previously official release though.

If this is still in print (I have no idea if it is) get it. It is really, really good.
