Dylan Cover #245 Frazey Ford "One More Cup Of Coffee"

In this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. Today's tune is a cover from Frazey Ford and it is a version of "One More Cup Of Coffee" 
Thoughts on Dylan Original:
From the first time we tackled a cover of this song:
Bob's story tunes seemed to crest on Desire and "One More Cup Of Coffee" fits in the Western/Biblical/Mystical motif of both "Isis" and "Romance In Durango" but puts fourth a more ominous feel then either. Singing with Emmylou Harris on the original recording a haunting combo of voices which gets along perfectly with violins and other rag tag players from the sessions.

Thoughts on Cover Artist:
I have never heard of Frazey Ford before. Turns out she is a Candian singer songwriter who has been at it for a while with The Be Good Tanya's and now is going solo. Check her out.
Thoughts on Cover:
A fine cover. Ford's voice is the draw here and you will enjoy the cover if you enjoy her falsetto voice that flutters around. We did.
