Bob's Birthday, Better Late Then Never (with covers)

Earlier this week was Bob Dylan's birthday (Wednesday I think). Why do I bring this up after the fact? Well because I was busy that day and today while waiting to do my radio show, Sweet Static(listen live at www.cjam.ca-cheap plug) I had time to get up my tribute to Mr. Dylan. So while I'm sure there were plenty of tributes on various mp3 blogs I wanted to add my own touch.

I'll be the first to admit that I'm no hardcore fan. I do like what I have in my collection but it isn't much.

Thanks to Uncut Magazine and their excellent tribute cds I've got a few Dylan covers to share. For this post I've grabbed three that I like.

Drive-By Truckers-"Like A Rolling Stone"mp3
Paul Westerberg"It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry"mp3
Lee Ranaldo-"Visions Of Johanna"mp3

They are of course up a zip file on Rapidshare. You can get all three of them here.

The Truckers and Westerberg songs are from Sept. 2005 issue on a cd called Highway 61 Revisited-Revisited. The Ranaldo song is from the June 2002 issue on a cd called Hard Rain: Vol. Two.

So hopefully you enjoy them. Off to do my show.
