i am a huge fan of the bob dylan bootleg series. the 1-3 box set was fucking shockingly incredible the first time i heard it, and all three of the live concerts (halloween '64, royal albert concert hall '66, and especially the AMAZING '75 show on bootleg #6) were well worth the money, and while #7 (the soundtrack to no direction home) was a little hit-or-miss for me, the documentary itself was so perfect it was easy to let a few bad tracks slide.
#8 is previewing right now on NPR, and it's fantastic. i'm buying it, as soon as i accumulate enough money to buy the new 9-disc phish @ the roxy '93 set, the limited edition cardinology vinyl, the normal cardinology CD, and a new clutch for my car. and some food. food rocks.
anyway, check this shit out. it's all outtakes and alternate versions from the oh mercy era till now. and it's all good.
EDIT: i forgot to mention, the alternate version of "most of the time" (famous, perhaps, from being on the high fidelity soundtrack) on this album is especially great.
