Tragedy of the Trade

2009 · via Gerry Goffin

Bob Dylan’s earliest release of “Tragedy of the Trade” on file came out in 2009. Bob Dylan shares the writing credit with Barry Goldberg and Gerry Goffin. The earliest release on file is Gerry Goffin’s, from 1996.

From the counter

Goffin put his name on the first recording of this one in 1996, and it turns out he had Bob Dylan in the writing room. Dylan's own take came out years later, so you can hear the song from both sides of the credit.
