Nobody Sings Dylan Like Dylan, Vol. 22: A Thousand Miles Behind
It’s been four weeks since the last edition of NSD, but the delay has certainly not been due to any lack of good material. We’ve got 22 new tracks for Volume 22, including 15 new artists and six new songs to the NSD canon. But what truly distinguishes this installment is the intentional absence of both "All Along the Watchtower" and "Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door," which must be the most covered Dylan songs around. Chances are they’ll be back next time.
Many of Volume 22’s performers may not be familiar at first glance (some because their names are usually hidden behind those of their bands), but they are all featured in the All Music Guide (allmusic.com), and I encourage you to look them up there. Of particular note is the Alpha Band cover of "You Angel You"–for those of you unfamiliar with these guys, they are Rolling Thunder Revue veterans T Bone Burnett, Steven Soles and David Mansfield. Also noteworthy are Robyn Hitchcock’s backing band, the Nashville Crawdads, who include Peter Buck, Gillian Welch, David Rawlings and John Paul Jones.
As always, thanks to the tapers, the original uploaders, the folks who’ve sent me recordings, the fine artists who’ve created cover artwork, and especially the performers and composer. Due to the many different sources, I am not including lineages. I have done nothing to the original files but normalize the levels and fade in and out on each track (using Cool Edit). Please keep the suggestions and files coming–if you’ve got something good, PM me.
Enjoy!
