I am soooo glad KZread surfaced this in my recommends. I had no idea Al Stewart had covered this. Awesome! I suppose it is because I had been listening a lot of Al Stewart on KZread recently.

Met Al several [2007] years back...his intellect is miles above!

I love hearing Al Stewart's patter. He's always such a cutie. The original nerdcore. Thanks for including that... Along with a brilliant interpretation of Watchtower that isn't Dylan's, isn't Jimi's, it's all theirs. Love it.

Epic.......,and i ever thought I know every song Al Stewart ever played.Great and thanks.A Bob Dylan song covered by the hidden world artist Al Stewart fitts.Greetings from Germany.

Speechless, gobsmacked and delighted. Al makes the song his own -but what a band, too!

WISHBONE AL !! I am a fan of Wishbone Ash ( 1974 ), and of Al Stewart ( 1975 )...great version !

I am also, and would have never have imagined them together! I can definitely hear the Wishbone Ash guitar sound. Amazing.

Ilove Al Stewart

Just proves Al Stewart is the genius I always thought he was.

Awesome version, love Al!

Bob Dylan is an outstanding songwriter. I apologize, as I don't care for his voice. Al's voice, in my humble opinion, presents Dylan's songs with more finesse.

Thumb of rule for a Dylan song: As opposed to most other artists the cover is usually better than the original.

Wow.....just.....wow.....

Heading out to see him tomorrow (9/8/23). Wonder if he could be persuaded to do this one?

ありがとう。 これを聞けてとても嬉しい。

Anyone notice the similarity to Paint by numbers from 24 carrot?

Isaac was a good friend. He got me up to jam on this very song in Glasgow 1987. I was 21 and so far out of my depth it was comical. He was always very encouraging and inspiring. His son Jake has his dads looks and his guitars....and plays them well!

Sadly, this is NOT commercially available. The source material of this recording came from the archives of Neville "The Devil" Judd, who may or may not be actively selling his bootlegged wares...

$o trippy.
