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."
Thoughts on Cover Artist:
This is our first time hearing Fellowship of the Wing but are familiar with each of the artists individually. John Kadlecik - Guitar & vocals, Jay Lane - Drums & vocals, Reed Mathis - Bass & vocals and Todd Stoops - Keyboards & vocals
Thoughts on Cover:
A really awesome upbeat jammed out cover. While the videos sound levels aren't equal, you can really tell all of these talented players love this tune. A dynamite cover and if there is a cleaner version out there, send it RtBE's way.
