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 Quincy Flint playing "When The Ship Comes In"
Thoughts on Original:
One of our favorite songs from the early days of Dylan. The purest Irish Folk we felt he ever got, Joan Baez was a fan of this one and told a cool story during No Direction Home, about him being pissed at a hotel attendant and then having this song just spiral out of him. Images of the sea, the salt, the song, raiding/pillaging; a pirate song at heart. When we are looking for pure folk Dylan this one usually finds it's way to our ears.

Thoughts on Cover Artist:
This is RtBE's first time hearing Quincy Flint who is a Florida based folk singer.
Thoughts on Cover:
Great picking, solid singing. A well down live, straight ahead cover of the gorgeous song. Well done all around.
This wraps up another year of Bob Dylan covers. I can't believe this series is still going. 713 different Dylan covers and counting. Thanks for reading and listening. Thanks to all the artists as well. See you in 2026.
