In this ongoing Monday
Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan
song's. Today's tune comes from Federico Borluzzi and is a live cover
of "Thunder On The Mountain"
Thoughts on Dylan Original:
From the first time we tackled a cover of this tune:
The opening track on Dylan's 2006 album Modern Times, "Thunder On
The Mountain" has all the ingredients of a classic; ingenious word
play, a rhythmic backbone and some sweet fret work. In my original review of Modern Times I quoted three sets of lyrics from this tune. It is epic and fits in with the heavyweights of Dylan's past.

Thoughts on Cover Artist:
I have not hear of Federico Borluzzi before, but a quick search pulls up that: Federico Borluzzi is a singer-songwriter, cover artist and busker from Italy. Guitarist, singer and harmonica player
Thoughts on Cover:
This week and next we are showcasing two street performers in Italy doing covers of Dylan. Fun stuff all around even if this cover is a bit sped up. We would love to be strolling through the old world and come upon an artist playing Dylan, wouldn't get much better then that.
