Bob’s Birthday Bash III – Part 2

Some Dylan fans are a bit too fanatical for me and they believe Bob can do no wrong (which of course he can and would readily admit). And while I have no problem with artists covering Bob Dylan songs (most eventually do), I get annoyed when they depart from the original lyrics. But that should be less of a problem in the future since Dylan (or one of his minions) has now posted all of his lyrics on his website. Here are more of my favorite covers of Bob Dylan songs. Happy Birthday, Bob! Enjoy!
