I need to hear a tape of this show to possibly confirm it’s the
best show I’ve seen in three years. What a night! Great

Nick Drake covers Bob Dylan

Family Tree is a 2007 compilation album of home recordings by Nick Drake. The album is notable for the appearance of Nick’s sister, Gabrielle, on one track and the contribution of two original songs performed by Nick’s mother, Molly Drake. Recorded before the release of his first album Five Leaves Left, most of the tracks on the album circulated on bootlegs in the years before official release due to the generosity of Drake’s family in sharing them with fans. The album reached #35 on Billboard’s Top Independent Albums chart, making it Drake’s first album to chart in America. It has a lovely version of Dylan’s Tomorrow Is A Long Time.

Slot 2 tonight was a real treat of TO RAMONA with Bob on guitar!! Long time since I last saw him play the guitar. Nice. Then a powerful, powerful HIGHWAY 61.. this arrangement is stellar. A brutally good STORMY WEATHER was followed by a rocking, rolling, roaring version of SUMMER DAYS.

Bob Dylan, Bob Dylan - The songs he didn't write

The Songs he didn’t write: Bob Dylan See that my grave is kept clean

3 Comments





See That My Grave Is Kept Clean is a blues song recorded by Blind Lemon Jefferson in two slightly differing versions in October 1927 and February 1928 that became one of his most famous compositions.

Bob Dylan recorded the song for his 1962 debut album Bob Dylan.

Bob Dylan does a great interpretation of the song. It is the last song on the album, and what a send-off. It is stunning, great guitar playing, fantastic singing, understated and insistent at the same time. Dylan’s voice is remarkable Continue reading The Songs he didn’t write: Bob Dylan See that my grave is kept clean →

Our conversation was short and sweet
It nearly swept me off-a my feet
And I’m back in the rain, oh, oh
And you are on dry land
You made it there somehow
You’re a big girl now
