Bob Dylan rules.

never heard of this guy. pretty good stuff

Very Very cool!

I like it, but I did think it was Dylan. No doubt there's an influence there.

She really makes this song. Very nice!

I really like this... perky & flirty...

Her name is Prudence Johnson. She has a few albums out on her own. See: (click here)

This is great stuff! More more more!

Anybody know who the woman doing backup is?

Please play anything by Greg Brown. I love him.

Led Zepp followed by Greg Brown...ONLY on RP

Used to hear him live all the time in Iowa City, IA when I was there for college. Great artist. Glad he's getting more exposure now.

I've got friends who worship this guy. FIrst time I've heard him. I love it! love the klezmer-y clarinet. play more of him, please!

First time I've ever heard Greg Brown. What a great song! I want to hear more.

More Greg Brown on RP! MORE!

I really liked it, never heard it before, but I was wondering WHY I'd never heard this Dylan track before and mostly was wondering who was doing the FEMALE vocals with Dylan. That's the only reason I checked the playlist! Boy, is my face red... :headshake:

this song still sounds to me like something off "desire" or "blood on the tracks," tho...

As far as I am concerned Greg Brown has his very own style, and it ROCKS!

perfect! A 6.8 rating is a laughable description of this song, really makes me wonder about the tastes at RP.

This is excellent - let's hear it more often! :nodhead:

The more greg brown the better

"...forget all your troubles,
...forget all your cares,
and go..."

RP never ceases to amaze me. Greg Brown! Downtown!!
I haven't heard this version before.
Thanks for playing :)

Well said. GB & BD are two distinctly different artists. Haven't heard this tune yet, maybe it confused the guy (or maybe he's had a severe head injury??)

My fave Greg: the Dream Cafe CD. Funny, sad, bitter, happy, and the song "sleeper" has one of my fave lines ever:

"I will take you with my children
through the clover to the creek
when orion's gone a-hunting
through the fields our wishes seek
and we all will love each other
like sugar in our tea...
sleeper come, and go with me"

For a single dad with three kiddos, that give me hope!

Dude, just how much GB have you heard??! Or should I say, how little? You are the proud (apparently) owner of the least informed statement I have ever seen on RP.

Well, here is yet another artist I had never even heard of before RP. I've heard several bits by him now, and so far like everything I've heard.

Brother Bill, you're giving me a sort of second musical education in my middle years; thanks again.

Having heard a variety of Greg Brown's songs, it never seemed to me that he was trying to copy Bob Dylan's style. Having read these comments, I can now hear similarities in their voices; but I still think Greg Brown is distinctive. Excellent singer/songwriter.

Also check out his daughter: Pieta Brown (has 2 songs in the RP rotation).

Why not just listen to REAL Dylan?

What a blatant ripoff!

This dude needs to get his OWN style!

When he does, he'll ROCK!
