The Bootleg Series Vol. 5: Bob Dylan Live 1975, The Rolling Thunder Revue is a live album by Bob Dylan released by Columbia Records in 2002. The third installment in the ongoing Bob Dylan Bootleg Series on Legacy Records, it documents the Rolling Thunder Revue led by Dylan prior to the release of the album Desire. Until the release of this album, the only official live documentation of the Rolling Thunder Revue was Hard Rain, recorded during the less critically well received second leg of the tour.
The two-disc set received a warm reception from critics and fans, although some lamented that it does not document, or emulate, a typical complete show from the tour. Fans have also expressed exasperation at the omission of certain revered performances, notably the cover of Johnny Ace's "Never Let Me Go".
A bonus DVD accompanying the initial release of this album features two video excerpts from Dylan's 1978 film Renaldo and Clara: a November 21, 1975, performance of "Tangled Up in Blue" (included in audio form on the main album) and a December 4, 1975, performance of "Isis" (which had been included in audio form on the 1985 compilation Biograph). It spent nine weeks on the chart and was certified and awarded a gold record on March 12, 2003, by the RIAA. The album reached number 69 in the U.K.

A more comprehensive 14-disc collection entitled Bob Dylan – The Rolling Thunder Revue: The 1975 Live Recordings was released in 2019 to coincide with the Netflix documentary-film Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese. At that time, The Bootleg Series Vol. 5 was re-issued on vinyl.

Notes


The "Blowin' in the Wind" and "Mama, You Been on My Mind" duets of Dylan and Baez on disc one were originally listed in reverse order on bobdylan.com. However, the respective recording dates of 20 November 1975 in Cambridge and 21 November 1975 (evening show) in Boston were not changed on the final insert. Baez' spoken intro to "Mama, You Been on My Mind" is said to be from Cambridge, not Boston, while "Blowin' in the Wind" is said to be from Boston.
