BOB DYLAN VS. A. J. WEBERMAN - THE HISTORIC CONFRONTATION - Folkways Records FB5322. Disc and Sleeve are in Near Mint range (very slight considerations might render them plus or minus by some people’s grading); 8 Page Booklet is Mint Minus. Disc runoff matrix reads FB5322-A and FB5322-B.

Only on the streets for one short week in 1977 before being recalled by Folkways via an injunction brought by Dylan’s attorneys against the label, precious few of the AUTHENTIC, BLACK LABEL PRESSINGS (the only “legitimate” pressing this LP ever saw) were purchased prior to the album’s recall. Those not sold during its single week of availability were recalled and destroyed. Dylan was not particularly happy about the personal phone conversations between himself and garbologist A. J. Weberman (who also recorded the conversations over the phone) that make up most of this LP, thus his swift action against the label. Also included on this album are the songs “A.J. Weberman” by David Peel & Group and “Father Bruce” by Grace Slick. Goldmine magazine estimates the value of this item to be between $300-500.

In the past year, copies of this album have begun showing up on internet auction sites with a BLUE LABEL. These “copies” are counterfeits. The album only saw one pressing - with a BLACK LABEL! Folkways was a small New York City label that rarely, if ever, did more than single-run pressings in extremely low quantities, many times under 500 copies.
