Yep

Yup

Amen .🌹💖💖🎉

I need them to pick up pace, dragging like a truck stuck in mud. Depressing as hell.

True, but don't forget this is a Dylan song. He's still with us for a while yet.

there's way too many na sayers, hate um! Grace you rock!

@@jhandle4196 True, but don't forget that The Band was literally a group of Bob Dylan's musicians who left to form their own group. Just because Dylan is alive doesn't mean another artist shouldn't cover one of the tunes The Band performed while they were with him.

God Bless You Brother. All Prayers for You and Her Sweet Soul.

Ed Webbley God bless you Ed. 🙏🏻. I am missing someone 3 weeks now💔

I am very sorry for your lost May God bring you comfort that you will be reconnected with the one you love Someday on the other side..God Bless you.

Ed, don’t cry because it’s over....Smile because it happened!

Levon had such kind words to say about Richard and Rick. Levon's book was a great insight into social grace and truth.

I'm Garth Hudson and I approve this message.

I was amazed by Grace, she's another woman who has many talents!!!...

Amen Beth, she did The Band very proud!!!!!!!! I love this woman!!!!!

Becky Finch Absolutely. However how bout the writer proud?

yeah, yeah. Sorry to burst your bubble,but music and musicians go on. She is working the song.

Jim, I couldn't agree more! You seem like you the difference between real music and cheaply produced music (if you can call it "music") consisting largely or entirely of synthesizers and drum machines, and this is an example of real music. In spite of "working the song", and even though I like The Band's version better, I honestly think that this is a good cover, it's a different attitude towards listening. Not to change the subject, but both this version by Grace Potter (singing and playing organ) along with drummer Matt Burr and bassist Don Was, and the original version by The Band, feature an organ part, but the two versions used a different kind of organ. The original version by The Band (as with the majority of their songs) used a Lowrey organ, played by Garth Hudson (the Lowrey organ - which sometimes sounds more like a synthesizer than an organ, as can be heard on The Beatles "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" and The Who "Baba O'Riley" - was his main instrument, his other instruments of choice being the saxophone and the accordion), whereas as Grace Potter is playing a Hammond organ, as with most of the songs she did with her original band Grace Potter & The Nocturnals (of which Grace Potter herself was the singer, keyboardist and rhythm guitarist) with the Hammond B3 organ being her main instrument for keyboard parts, and the Gibson Flying V, her main instrument for guitar parts. Back on track (with I Shall Be Released) what I like about this version (and not everyone would agree with my opinion, and I respect that) is that the sparse arrangement of nothing but organ, drums and bass, is perfectly fitting for the theme, and I do believe this song is about prison (and the "reflection against somewhere high against the wall" being the narrator's only companion while waiting to be released), that's my interpretation anyway. But yes, I agree with you 100% about Grace Potter; she's a brilliant keyboardist. Regards!

Look up her cover of Cortez the Killer with Joe Satriani. Mind blowing.

I love love her! If you haven't yet stumbled across Empty Heart, it's my favorite.

Same.

John Thomson I agree.

Listen to the cover by Joni Mitchell, Cass Elliot, and Nancy Travers. One of my all time favorite versions

you may be interested in Nina Simone's rendition, the best I have had to pleasure of listening to.

David Gray live with Tim Reynolds. Amazing

Check out the Chrissy Hynde version for the 30th Anniversary show.

Great job

I believe he'll be there to greet you when you leave this place.

You will be released and dad will be waiting .

You will my friend I promise

see your dad in the songs and sights which give you joy. see him in the times when you want to share your best thoughts and your craziest questions. i have four daughters around 22 . see your dad everywhere you see something special

Hugs

Seriously. It made the hair on my arm stand up. It was wild.

I think it's a Wurly.

Levon?

Very seldom does a Act come out on stage and bring the band basically to Tears

Not by the people who matter. Real artists and real music fans. Screw commercial radio, and every day listeners of their pathetic drivel. They don't deserve Grace and her like.

Green with envy! You were there! X

I think I saw you!

Well, then.

@@mikerafone8117 Haha!

I’d like to hear more about your experience. It is moving just on Utube

Yes, there is passion and great sensuality in her performances.

No, there ain't!

this is not about Dylan

@@thelasthuman2510 , he wrote the song, numbnuts

me too

Think it is B3 🙂But fully agree !!

Yes, Richard singing this broke my heart every single time I listened to it. I am not criticizing her cover but there are no tears in my eyes when she sings.

Awesome voice, great cover of a great song. If you've not heard Jeff Buckleys ''Live at Sin - e'' version, check it out it's truly magical.

This lady is not overlooked by other musicians. I've seen her as a guest vocalist with many many great bands. Govt Mule, TTB, come to mind.

I was your "neighbor" that evening and we didn't get the chance to meet... but memories were made, by us both! 😊

@@nottabidenfan660 well that's pretty cool. Howdy neighbor. There were a lot of great performances that night

@@stacydolci3621 Absolutely! Great night had by ALL..I'm sure!

Levon who?

Same. I love her voice!

Jerry Garcia covered this. Instrumentally amazing. Might give it a spin.

@@MrHilljohntimothy Thanks I will do that

Awesome voice, great cover of a great song. If you've not heard Jeff Buckleys ''Live at Sin - e'' version, check it out it's truly magical.

Search RU-vid for grace potter on the TV show Live from Daryl's House and be amazed further sir. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fG55nrOcsIk.html Ok start here...

I found this Lady a few years ago and lost track, forgot her name i guess, misremembered and gave up looking maybe, but now I found it again and instantly recognized. At a time Right Now.. that I needed to. And this song no less..

Check out Chrissy Hynde's cover. Bob Dylan's 30th anniversary concert. She nailed it.

joe zwick So happy to read that. Huge. Hynde fan. Chrissy s got it. A little bit of everything Great band too
