It's about the lyrics, not the voice. Mind you, it wouldn't have the same feeling if Charlotte Church sang "Blowing in the wind" so maybe the voice adds to the feeling.

Like Bruce Springboard has the voice of a canary, or Tom Waits does session work at the local Tabernacel! (sp?)

Why not have a thread for best Dylan cover?

I was listening to Jason and the Scorchers do "Absolutely Sweet Marie" this morning, and it rocked.

haven't heard the charlatans cover. Do they tap into the essence that makes up the legend, Mr Sylan?

Not very Dylanesque…still a great tune that was on one of two of Uncut magazine's free Dylan cover albums last year.

I'm surprised vansmack hasn't given props to the Mike Ness version of Don't Think Twice.

My vote for best Dylan cover would have to be "Nobody 'Cept You" done by 16 Horsepower on their Secret South album. I think the original is only available on a Dylan live bootleg though. It's a beautiful song, I wish Bob would record it himself.

Obvisously my favorite Dylan cover would be "Lay Lady Lay" by Ministry. :cool:
