    Bryan Ferry: Understated elegance, elan, and talent. Everything he touches turns to gold in the musical sense.

    Bryan Ferry does a great job of interpreting Dylan, and this is one of his best examples. Beautiful version of a beautiful song.

    That glance he makes toward his backup singer at the beginning...I can’t decide if he gives her a sincere smile of appreciation for the lovely singer she is, or is it just a furtive glance where he’s just making sure she’s in position and ready to sing. Her smile back at him is so bright and beautiful though.

      I wud argue there r more singers that do, but what cant be disputed is that bryan ferry is class personified, his version of this cover song is majestic.

    • @winstonmiller9649
      @winstonmiller9649 2 роки тому +1

      Yes, his passion is even more affecting because it's presentation is so subdued!! As it were, like the sun waiting behind clouds. You just know it there through implication, without you being seared by it's tremendous heat to prove point...
