Graham Nash covers Bob Dylan with various partners: Happy Birthday, Graham Nash!
Graham William Nash, OBE (born 2 February 1942) is known for his light tenor voice and for his songwriting contributions with the British pop group The Hollies, and with the folk-rock super group Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. A dual citizen of the United Kingdom and United States, Nash became an American citizen on 14 August 1978.
He has covered Bob Dylan on a few occasions, here are the ones I managed to dig up.
Hollies – Blowing In The Wind (1968):
The Hollies originated as a duo formed by Allan Clarke and Graham Nash, who were best friends from primary school and began performing together during the skiffle craze of the late 1950s.[2] Eventually Clarke and Nash became a vocal and guitar duo modelled on the Everly Brothers under the names “Ricky and Dane Young.” Under this name, they teamed up with a local band, the Fourtones, consisting of Pete Bocking (guitar), John ‘Butch’ Mepham (bass), Keith Bates (drums), and Derek Quinn (guitar). When Quinn quit to join Freddie and the Dreamers in 1962, Clarke and Nash also quit and joined another Manchester band, the Deltas, consisting of Vic Steele on lead guitar, Eric Haydock on bass guitar, and Don Rathbone on drums, which had just lost two members (including Eric Stewart, who left to join a “professional” band, The Mindbenders).
Dylan records a half-hour program as part of the CBC-TV series “Quest.” The half a dozen songs he sings-“Talkin’ World War III Blues,” “Hard Rain’s a-Gonna Fall,” “Girl from the North Country,” “The Times They Are a-Chang in’,” “The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll,” and “Restless Farewell”-are all performed within the most incongruous of settings, a log cabin filled with working men pretending to pay attention.

Jason Isbell (born February 1, 1979) is an American singer-songwriter and guitarist from Green Hill, Alabama, in Lauderdale County. He is best known for his solo career, and as a former member of the Drive-By Truckers for 6 years. We are big fans of Drive-by Truckers and Isbell’s God Damn Lonely Love is one of the best songs the and ever released. Jason Isbell has proved to be a great singer /songwriter in his own right, and we voted his album Southeastern the best album release of 2013.
We have a long tradition here at All Dylan, we present artists who interprets our big hero Bob Dylan’s songs. Today we take a look at some fine takes from Jason Isbell and wife, Amanda Shires. All from Dylanfest 2013, this is a coincidence, Jason Isbell has covered Dylan on several occasions.
Enjoy!
Very good interpretation of The Man In Me (Dylanfest 2013):
