The Bootleg Series Vol. 18: Through the Open Window 1956–1963 collects Bob Dylan's earliest recordings, released on 31 October 2025 via Columbia/Legacy. From living-room and club tapes in Minnesota to the Greenwich Village years, the collection traces Dylan's growth from folk singer to songwriter through rare outtakes, informal sessions and jams. It culminates in his complete, previously unreleased Carnegie Hall concert of 26 October 1963: an expansive archival portrait of the artist on the brink of his breakthrough.

This edition is a 4-LP on black vinyl.
