I have now checked. It's a cover of a Robert Palmer and UB40 song.

Well, that was alright, laters

I don't feel this song suits his singing style.

No.

Oh, I was just getting into that, and it's over.

It is over.

I felt that was a good album which was somewhat letdown in places by a low-key backing band.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everyone else made of it. Excited

I like it, but the production was too weedy for some of the songs.

Also I feel I should have listened to it on a semi knacked Dansette in a bedsit when I was 19 for maximum enjoyment.

I Feel I need to listen to it more. Alas I probably won't. Too busy watching YouTube videos of people building guitars into their fences or something.

I quite enjoyed taking part in my first running commentary.

I've been over thinking this, I know he has a reputation of covers being better than his originals, but this really did sound like a demo tape. Doesn't mean it's bad, but just, well, unfinished is a bit strong, but you know what I mean.

I remember hearing Blood on the Tracks over a decade ago, and it seemed too over produced, couldn't hear the songs for the over dubs and glossy 70s sheen/stodge. Maybe I need to check it out again. dunno

Spoiler alert! llama

No.

This surely proves not only that Paul is dead, but that Bob killed him.

You need to post that on that Paul is dead forum.

Demon

The way he looks not only like Paul (lie), but a ghostly Paul scared

Bob 'Bobby' Dylan - John Wesley Harding (1967) - Page 8 JWHbeatles

And Paul was killed in a car crash that hit a tree, Dylan got the idea from his own Bike crash.

I'm almost temped to expand this out to a couple of hundred words and post it there, but I'm too lazy.
