Me happy (it was one of my 'requests'). Haven't even heard the track yet, but still > Another Time Another Place is close enough but still had The In > Crowd, Smoke > Gets in your Eyes, It Aint me Babe and the title track. I've never really liked 'It Ain't Me.' As much as I like the two on *Frantic* I've always found the earlier Dylan covers to be poorly arranged and 'overdone' in a way that hides the strength of these songs. 'Hard Rain' is slightly better, though, and the live version from the 1977 Bottom Line concerts is fine, more 'straightforward.' And why dislike 'Sunshine' so much anyway? That really puzzles me  I find it quite good.

Time wasting. Which is odd given that a lot of Ferrys best songs could be longer without being dragged out like Sign of the Times, YPS, you know, Virginia Plain and so on And why dislike 'Sunshine' so much anyway? That really puzzles me  I find it quite good.

I've always thought BF would do a creditable job of Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues. Positively 4th Street is a tune so perfect as done by Dylan that I've never been able to listen to anyone else sing it. It will either be totally brilliant or absolutely cringeworthy by BF. Aside from his admiration of Dylan, I think BF may have chosen these as there's not likely to be a great strain on the vocal cords to hit the range. With the problems he has had in past on tour, perhaps songs with less range will keep the voice going longer. I just hopes he brings the show to the USA.
