The soundtrack to the forthcoming Dylan film looks pretty good.

Dusty Springfield did a beautiful version of 'goin back'...other than that, not really.

Is that a Dylan track??!
Never knew that.

 

[Goodbye]

Prince did a cracking version of All Along The Watchtower at one of the London shows

 

[evil bandit]

That'll be pretty interesting to hear although if Anthony & The Johnsons cover of 'Knocking on Heavens Door' is anything like his version of 'Perfect Day' then it'll be truely painful.

um, always thought it was a Dylan song....??

it's a goffin and king track. the byrds "did" it so that is prolly the root of your confusion.

 

[travispickle]

Discard everything!

Yeah, its a great song.."Stap yourself to a tree with roots, you ain't goining nowhere". The version by the Byrds is great.

You never know though, he might do fine. He's getting rave reviews in the UK for that film Once.
