David's Peyroux post put me in mind of this one:




Any more come to mind?

That's very nice - instrumentally, especially. My only cavil would be that I just wonder if her voice is a little too light for Dylan.

What think ye of this?

Good song, ain't it? Not heard of Nickel Creek before, nice voice. I got into Dylan via Rod Stewart; back before he became famous and Americanised himself he did a Dylan song on each of his first 2 or 3 albums, and they were all good. There was one, Only A Hobo, I've never heard Dylan perform himself, and I've heard a lot of Dylan.My daughter recently sang a Dylan song in a local X-Factor show so the book is still being read!

After one look at this planet any visitor from outer space would say 'I want to see the manager.

Instead of just sitting on the fence - why not stand in the middle of the road?

What oddness is this?

Beck's Jack-ass backing music (unless he borrowed it, which he probably did, from where though?) Mick Jagger intro, and then Them?
