In Concert – Brandeis University 1963 is an album from a concert performed by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan at the Brandeis Folk Festival at Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts, on May 10, 1963.
A tape of the concert was found in the basement of San Francisco critic Ralph Gleason, a co-founder of Rolling Stone magazine, after Gleason's death, and was issued in 2010 by Columbia Records. It was offered as a bonus disc by Amazon.com with either The Bootleg Series Vol. 9 – The Witmark Demos: 1962-1964 or Dylan's The Original Mono Recordings for a limited time after its release. The album was officially released on April 12, 2011, in the United States, and a day earlier in Europe.
In the sleeve notes accompanying the CD, Dylan critic Michael Gray writes: “This is the last live performance we have of Bob Dylan before he became a star. Within weeks, The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan is issued; Peter, Paul and Mary release their "Blowin' in the Wind" which sells two million; and in late July Dylan arrives at the Newport Folk Festival as a newcomer and leaves as its stellar success.”
