Dylan Cover #505 Bobby Long & John Fullbright "Not Dark Yet" Live

 In this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. This week we have Bobby Long & John Fullbright doing a live cover of "Not Dark Yet".


Thoughts on Original:
From the first time we tackled a cover of this tune:
A excellent Dylan tune from any era but one that in particular screamed "I'm Still Alive And Kickin'!" on Time Out Of Mind at a phase when Dylan was simply an after thought in current popular music scene. One of Dylan's most haunting tracks; it is hard not to feel his emotions and finality of the coming darkness as Dylan sings this lyric set.  An all-time great that is mysterious, foreboding, honest and powerful. First class Bob.
