(Santa mugs by Gary Rith--a new idea! I gotta make lots more)
I am listening to the radio yesterday and there's Cat Power's version of Dylan's tune (see below) and it is SO GOOD, everybody would like it, that I begin thinking about how terrible most of Dylan's music sounds when Dylan does them. Compared to when OTHER people do Dylan's tunes. And Cat Power here, is, um, a WHOLE LOT cuter than Bob. Then I was thinking Jimi Hendrix and...
I have always said that I love Dylan's songwriting, his voice, nto so much. Super cool links!
ReplyDeleteOh no, NOT SANTA???? :)
ReplyDeleteI agree, everyone does Dylan better than Dylan. How funny is that?
BTW: I LOVE the Dave Matthews Band version of All Along the Watchtower...one of my favorite DMB songs ever.
Great Santa mugs, I happen to like Dylan's singing and songwriting something about him singing his own words, but I grew up in that age. te he. and blues they are the best.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about Elvis. Elvis songs are great when done by other people.
ReplyDeleteNo forking way!!!! ELVIS is the the KING! There is a post for tomorrow....
ReplyDeleteCool Santa Mugs!
ReplyDeleteI used to hate Dylan's voice, until I learned to sing along, and love his music, singing and all! Of course, like Linda, I too grew up in that era! (but, I'm still 36). LOL
BTW: Those music videos were great too!
Love Dylan's songs---hate his voice. Feel the same way about Leonard Cohen.
