...may Your Feet always be swift
and may You have a firm foundation...
...when the winds of changes shift
may Your Heart always be joyful...
...and may Your Songs always be sung
and may You stay...forever young...

I`m not really a fan of Dylan covers. A lot of the ones I`ve heard never seem to struggle out from under the giant shadow cast by Dylan`s own originals: IMO most of his songs are so permeated with his personality that it`s difficult for another artist`s interpretation to take.

So the cover versions I like are generally of Dylan`s less epic songs, where he has left a bit of room for someone else to add something to the song. Most of the ones I`m thinking of are on Il Duce`s list :

Johnny Cash - It Ain't Me, Babe

...to which I`d add these :

Time Passes Slowly by Judy Collins
You Angel You by Manfred Mann
It`s All Over Now Baby Blue by Van Morrison
