    Bryan started university in Newcastle on the same day as me. He was doing 'fine art' and I was studying engineering. I was doing Dylan and other stuff at the Uni folk club and some lads asked me to front their new band. I turned them down as an engineering course was 'hard yakka'. They asked Bryan instead. I now play this song as a solo number at some of my regular gigs that I am still performing at the age of 76.

    • @catinthehat906

      Great story. Not sure if you know but hard 'yakka' is Aussie slang- derived from an indigenous aboriginal word for work.

  • @garythomas4431
    @garythomas4431 6 років тому +26

    I don't think Bryan Ferry did this cover to prove anything except the fact that he loves Bob Dylan as a writer, and I'm sure there is mutual respect as Mr. Ferry has penned many great tunes himself.
    I wouldn't try to compare anyone's version of this song to Hendrix version, not even Bob Dylan's.
    I think it was brave of Ferry to take on the style challenge, and I think he and the band he put together for this outing stayed within their limits and gave us a nice performance with lots of energy.
    Negative statements about Mr. Ferry here are surely out of ignorance of his body work.
