The so-called "Banjo Tape" eventually did see official release, as part of the "50th Anniversary Collection 1963", the second Bob Dylan collection released by Sony Music to prevent the recordings from legally entering the public domain in Europe. Released on vinyl only in November 2013, only 100 copies of the six-LP set were produced.

Long thought to have come from a home recording by Gil Turner, the "Banjo Tape" is actually confirmed on Dylan's Official Site to have been recorded on 8th February 1963 at Folk City.
