Welcome to Rare Cool Stuff!
Not all Rare Cool Stuff projects are available to the public, though. Some of our projects are custom limited editions we produced for clients. As co-founder Geoff Gans puts it, “They’re so rare and cool, no one else can get them.”
The good news: You can still see and hear sights and sounds from many of these projects here at Rare Cool Stuff. Enjoy your visit!

The latest entry in Bob Dylan’s Bootleg Series, “The Basement Tapes Complete” boxed set and companion photo book “LO & Behold,” collects hundreds of unreleased recordings, photographs and memorabilia in two editions.
In the summer of 1967, Bob Dylan and his touring ensemble (later known as Bob Dylan and The Band) recorded more than a hundred traditional folk songs, new originals and off-the-cuff performances in the basement of the “Big Pink” house in West Saugerties, New York. Sixteen of these tracks were released by Columbia Records on the commercially successful “The Basement Tapes” album in 1975. However, the rest have eluded generations of fans and cultural critics.
These rare tracks – many from tapes only discovered recently – finally see the light of day in “The Basement Tapes Complete: The Bootleg Series Vol. 11.” The limited-edition deluxe “The Basement Tapes Complete” is accompanied by “LO & Behold,” an exclusive hard-bound book of rarely seen Dylan photographs and memorabilia reprinted in 120 full-color pages, designed and produced by Rare Cool Stuff Unltd.
