He did such a wonderful job with covers of songs by Dylan (and the Byrds), the Left Banke and Procol Harem. Such a soulful original voice! Thanks for the gifts, Jimmy.
When I was younger I would not have liked this cover of this Dylan song, I would have told you the Byrds did a much better job. Suddenly hearing this in my 70s for the first time I believe it is not just different but fits the song better than Dylan or the Byrds versions. Perhaps declining health, realizing I am on the short end of the yardstick of life or just depression colors my appreciation of Jimmy's interpretation, but whatever it is it really is a different song done this way. Too bad I didn't discover Jimmy LaFave until he had already been taken by cancer, like so many he never made the big time even though he had the big time talent.
