n this ongoing Monday Series we will be exploring various artists versions of Bob Dylan song's. Today's tune is a live cover by Ken Tizzard playing "Tangled Up In Blue"
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.

This is RtBE's first time hearing Ken Tizzard who is a musician who lives in Campbellford Ontario Canada.
Thoughts on Cover:
A cool trio cover of the tune that starts a bit easy with two guitars and bass. While it picks up tempo a touch as the travels unfold, it stays tight and well sung. A cool live cover that isn't too far from the original.
