I particularly liked the "I and I" because you built a nice groove and atmosphere and the I liked the passionate vocals and then because it's such an unusual choice to cover.

Loved the space in this one, that spare acoustic sound, and the intimate naturalistic vocal.

I liked that.
Several here have already made the choice to slow a Dylan song down and even add some space between the notes. You show that another approach, picking up the tempo and playing a very pleasing picking pattern with variations can work too. Bonus points for picking an unusual one to cover too!

I've sung this Dylan song hundreds of times, most often just for my self, but I'm pretty sure I never played it as well you did here. Very nice.

Yup, a lot to remember and at tempo too. I can recall a party sing-along of this song many years ago in my life, and the singer and many at the party could recall the whole thing. Now-a-days? No way! I'd probably need a lyric sheet to cover Dylan's "All the Tired Horses In the Sun."

I think I've now listened to and commented at least one of every performer's Dylan covers here, and your gets the virtual closing spot. One thing I notice is that you have an effective strumming arrangement, while I think the majority of solo voice and acoustic performances I've seen in this thread are finger-picking playing. Since I myself have moved this year once more try more strumming on acoustic accompaniments, I wanted to say that yours show that's effective.

Wouldn't have guessed it before going through this thread but it looks like "You Ain't Goin' Nowhere" is the official AGF Dylan song to cover. We've got:
Ray Sachs and his let's give this one a go take on it. Fenderbells electric band version with the nice hot guitar coda. CatDaddy's tight full band version. KevWind doing both a stripped-down one-take solo acoustic and vocal and a band version with some kind of violin or bowed string sound patch in there. Anyway, amazing group of Dylan covers overall. Lot of talent here for sure.

Great thread. This was a quick Guitars For Veterans lesson for a group of graduates preparing to play and sing this at a memorial ceremony for a fallen colleague. |

I've always enjoyed singing Bob Dylan songs. So many different kinds of characters in his songs, and such a broad catalog of material that it's fun to try things that haven't been covered often. So here's my version of "Went to See the Gypsy" off the now little-remembered "New Morning" LP.
I've talked about using virtual instruments for orchestral instrument scoring from time to time, but I don't know if I've ever presented an example of that to the AGF, and when I do present things here it tends to be work from my Parlando Project which is focused on areas that don't necessarily have broad appeal/interest (that's even sort of it's point). Halfway through this rendition, which was a live performance consisting of guitar, vocal and a soft keyboard part, I bring in a fairly full orchestra section with a violin melody all of which I composed and recorded later. My orchestrations tend to be simple musically (I sometimes call it "punk-rock orchestral" because of that simplicity) but I think this one worked out well. There's at least two typos in the text in the video. I blame bad eyesight and the late night effort to make a video out of it.

Yes seems You Ain't Goin' Nowhere is well liked And thanks , yes its a string orchestra played in via midi keyboard . I think the diversity of styles and interesting arrangements here on AGF is pretty cool Just some really great performances Glenn Willows "My Back Pages " inspired me to tune up the 12 string ... also (Kinda surprised no one has posted this yet ) SO.... Here is a quick version I did yesterday of Mr. Tamborine Man the newest in my One Shot One Take series
