  • The NYC recording is such a gem - I'd never connected with this song until I heard the "Bootleg" version. My voice isn't as high as Bob's so I tuned pretty far down: open C#, which is about as low as my 000 can handle before the strings get rubbery.

More Blood, More Tracks deluxe is one of my favorite box sets. Always blows my mind to slip disc 1 into the player and hear him toss this out as the first song played in the entire sessions. It still brings me a chill...

    That was an amazing rendition of this song. I always felt this was one of Dylan’s best but I think I focused even more on the melody and the lyrics with Carson singing it here. What a song……kind of sad but a little glimmer of light at the end. The group of musicians you are a part of are so sensitive and you have so much respect for the past and the giants of music. Any Mt Rushmore in music will have Bob Dylan up there. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us and thank you for making me love this particular song even more than I already did. Keep singing and playing!!

    I’m gonna say something controversial: I like your Bob Dylan covers A LOT more than the originals. You sing much better than he could and you never whine like he constantly did. Your style really lets the lyrics breathe. I’d love an entire album of your Dylan covers… (Carson’s Version) 😂 Of course, a full album of your originals as solo acoustic would be very welcome as well!

    • @richhahn2443

    • @markcounseling
      @markcounseling 6 місяців тому +3

      I can't say that I like them more, because the first ones were something like gold. But Carson refines them, makes something very polished out of a rough thing. And he has such an amazing feeling for the story, always. Great artist.

    Dylan's genius is that of other great musicians--his songs can be interpreted by others and still preserve their emotional power. How many Dylan covers have there been? More than 1500. Carson, who I never tire of listening to, and whose versatility is breathtaking, made this melancholy tune sound fresh and new.
