Probably too "young" a song to cover. It's actually from the same album as 'Make You Feel My Love,' but for some reason I can't see Ferry doing it. It's perhaps too explicitly personal a piece for others to cover anyway. I agree, though: it's a great song.

I look forward to hearing Ferry's rendition, can't imagine it will be better than Mr. Dylan's, can't imagine it will not be as goodly moody as Mr. Dylan's. Does anyone know - are the Dylan covers to be faithfully rendered, or will they be interestingly 'new' as were Screamin' Jay Hawkins' "I Put A Spell On You" and Martha ?Vandella's? popular song "Rescue Me" on the "Taxi" album? "Just shoot me" - Pat Garrett - "nah, just kidding" KBP ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 30 Dec 2006 16:23:19 -0000 From: "Bryan" Subject: RE: [AVALON] Dylanesque As much as I enjoy a fair percentage of BF's interpretation/cover(s) of other people's material I believe that certain tracks, such as Knockin' On Heaven's Door, should remain sacrosanct. I don't think that how much effort, or feeling, goes into the cover I cannot believe that this original can be bettered. Having said that it would be wonderful to be proved wrong.
