I have collected 7 of what I consider to be the best Bob Dylan interpretations from 2015. And just to make it clear (for the n’th time) these are not better than the originals, I just like how they make us listen to familiar songs in a different way. They are also testament to the songs considerable strength, they work with other artists than Dylan himself.
By the way, and I normally don’t do this, that Forever Young version from the British talent show was bad!
