Dylan Cover #739 Isto "You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go" Live

In this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. Today's tune is a live cover by Isto playing "You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go" 

Thoughts on Original:

From the first time we tackled a cover of this tune:

Arriving just after "Idiot Wind" the breezy "You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go" acts as a breather on Blood on the Tracks, but on it's own it is a gorgeous little number. A poetic love song that feels fresh every time it slips into the ear as the protagonist is in a world of bliss and doesn't want it to end, but knows it always will. Miles away from "Idiot Wind", but just as vital, showing off Dylan's easy charm and flowing word play/vocal style, I mean how cool is the "I’ll look for you in old Honolulu San Francisco or Ashtabula" run through?

Dylan Cover #738 Robert Verderese "Heart of Mine" Live

In this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. Today's tune is a live cover by Robert Verderese playing "Heart of Mine"

Thoughts on Original:

From the first time we tackled a cover of this tune:
Shot of Love found Dylan beginning to get back to more secular music after his gospel phase and "Heart of Mine" is an odd song that is cliché as hell but also loose and spastic Dylan. The fact that this version was released on Shot of Love is why the Bootleg series exists and the reason fans can become frustrated with his albums, as he himself stated: 

In an interview taken in 1984, Dylan admitted that "Heart of Mine" was "done a bunch of different ways ... but I chose for some reason a particularly funky version of that—and it's really scattered. It's not as good as some of the other versions, but I chose it because Ringo and Ronnie Wood played on it, and we did it in like ten minutes." 

Being that Dylan himself couldn't decide on how the song should actually be constructed, it makes it ripe for other artists to interpret, that is if they can get past the cheesy, "don't do the crime if you can't do the time" line...

Cover:

Thoughts on Cover Artist:
This is our first time hearing Robert Verderese, but it might not be the last as his youtube page has a bunch of Bob covers. 

Thoughts on Cover: 

Really strong cover, fast, upbeat strumming and excellent singing from Verderese. A cool, quick, crisp cover for this Monday.

Enjoy The 4th of July with The Grateful Dead

The United States celebrates it's Independence, and while the country has deep rooted issues and problems we are dealing (and not dealing) with, it is still the best country mankind has founded in our sordid history. So enjoy the outdoors, hanging safely with friends, and living life. What better soundtrack for that is there than The Grateful Dead?!?!

We took the opportunity a few years back to talk about the Best American Band question on July 4th. Now (in a tradition started years ago) we are just giving you our answer in concert form, the Grateful Dead's July 4th 1989 concert. What a doozy! It is the perfect time to bust it back out and get Truckin' Up To Buffalo.

Dylan Cover #737 John Wise "Scarlet Town" Live

In this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. Today's tune is a live cover by John Wise playing "Scarlet Town"

Thoughts on Original:

From the first time we tackled a cover of this tune:
While RtBE aren't huge fans of Tempest and "Scarlet Town" is dull on the album, repeating the musical phrases over and over again, it doesn't mean it is all bad, this is Bob Dylan after all. Bob and the band have revived the track somewhat on stage, injecting the song with life and have delivered some great live versions since it's release. This evolution also makes it ripe for artists to put their own stamp on the longer blues based tune with cryptic lyrics and a slow beat.  

Cover:

Thoughts on Cover Artist:
This is RtBE's first time hearing John Wise who posted a few covers like this on Youtube 10 years ago. 

Thoughts on Cover:

A dark, solo piano take that adds more stark bleakness to the original.

Ween

Bring Out The Foos: Live 1996

*** out of *****

The New Hope, PA based duo Ween have been going through their archives and recently released this live album, Bring Out The Foos: Live 1996. It captures the band during an interesting phase, when they were the opening act for the Foo Fighters and once again playing as a duo. That opening slot leads to lot of interplay with fans who had never heard of anything Boognish related.

Album Review: The Black Keys - Peaches

The Black Keys

Peaches

*** out of *****

The Black Keys have had a roller coaster decade so far. Peaches is their fifth studio release since 2020  and their second collection of covers. Following up quickly on the heels of their disappointing 2025 release No Rain, No Flowers,  Peaches is much more connected to Delta Kream, a cover record based in the blues, but with a few more twists and turns from the Hill Country style showcased on that record.

Dylan Cover #736 David Broad "I Want You" Live

In this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. Today's tune is a live cover by David Broad singing "I Want You" 

Thoughts on Original:
(From the first time we tackled a cover of this song)
A song that fits the Gemini Dylan like a glove; direct lyrical yearning chorus with verses that meander about introducing characters like roadblocks in the way of true love. It was the last tune written for the mega Blonde on Blonde and a song he and others (it was Al Kooper's favorite) admired so much he almost titled the album after it. Never a track that jumps to the top of peoples "favorites" or "best of" Dylan lists but one that really nails what the artist is all about in some of the simplest terms.

Happy 60th Anniversary to Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde

Happy 60th Anniversary to Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde.

Album Review: Jill Scott - To Whom This May Concern

Jill Scott

To Whom This May Concern

**** out of *****

Jill Scott let inspiration come to her, she didn't rush the muse, and it took eleven years for To Whom This May Concern to form. The result is a record based in neo-soul, but not afraid to genre hop, stretch boundaries, praise those who need it while lashing out when called for.
