In the past we have highlighted The Byrds, Coulson-Dean-McGuiness-Flint, The Hollies, Joan Osbourne, Mountain, Betty LeVette , Reggae Covers and many more.
For December we highlight live Dylan covers from Todd Snider
Thoughts on Original:
From the first time we tackled a cover of this track:
Wow. The song that never ends, the tune that might just best sum up Dylan, if that is remotely possible. Dylan constantly toyed with this song (check out the Rolling Thunder and Real Live version's if you haven't yet) and even he knows it can't stay stagnant in one form for long, so covering it is a good bet. Needless to say it is in the top 5 greatest songs he ever wrote if we were ranking them...hmm.

Thoughts on Cover Artist:
Back in August we posted a cover of Snider doing "Visions of Johanna" and that gave us the inspiration for this months focus. RtBE really dig Todd Snider, and have talked about him multiple times in the past.
Thoughts on Cover:
We end this month with Snider giving us his take on the classic "Tangled Up In Blue". This wraps up December's special focus on a high note. Snider nails it.
Thanks for following this series, it has been fun to keep on keepin' on.
