Here are two offerings for the Dylanfest. I was playing a lot of Dylan about 20 years ago, and this recording of I and I was made by a friend while I played it in the kitchen.
This second one, Baby let me follow you down, was recorded also in the kitchen, but by me, just a few years ago. I was trying emulate 1966 electric Dylan with a cheap electric guitar, a Fender Mustang, and a bodhran for percussion. ("Judas!")

Back in 1995 my band recorded a rehearsal at our bass player's house which included this Dylan cover. The bass player's 2 year old son decided to help out with some vocals and percussion about half-way through the song which cracked us up.

Hi, AFAIK I only play one Dylan Song and I felt I couldn't put it on here as Glenn beat me to it, but now someone else has done it too, so maybe it's ok?
Frankly, I've never been a great fan of Dylan, but this one contained a story that spoke to me. It isn't a pretty song it's a bitter cynical song. so here's my version:

I think this is possibly my favourite Bob Dylan song to cover. I was recovering from a chest infection when I sang this but I think I got away with it.

Dylan's folk process borrowed a lot of trad tunes ("Blowin' in the Wind" is one, based on "No More Auction Block.") but that said because we now largely associate these melodies with his words/impact on songwriting, it gives the resulting instrumental music an extra tang of association. I think of Bill Frisell's version of "A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall" for example. If it was experienced as a cover of "Lord Randall" it would be different to the listener and probably to the player. I used to use a free-playing structure (yes, a contradiction if there ever was one) of "Blowin' In the Wind" and "Purple Rain" where I'd obliquely quote themes from those two pieces amongst with free playing. For shorthand, I always write those takes down as "Blowin' Rain." A singer could mash those tunes up too. "Purple rain, purple rain. The answer my friend, is blowin' in the purple rain."
