RE: Cover Versions - What are your thoughts?
Anybody who covered a Bob Dylan song did it better than him ( except Johnny Cash) Dream Theater were amazing Musicians , but the only good stuff they did was when they covered , Journey , Elton John, Zeppelin etc.
Hey hey hey go easy on Johnny {grin} ... I enjoy him now and again. I agree as regards Bob Dylan although I do listen to an awful lot of his vinyl still. Joan Baez (who Icovered here) did amazing covers of his songs. I will explore Dream Theaters as I am not familiar with them

I am not slagging Bob , he is a Great Songwriter, even he himself said the Byrds did his songs better than him, I have all his albums. Dream Theatre , (put the link above.) All my Musician Friends raved about them , but musicians don't pay to get into venues( usually ) so their opinions don't count.
"...but musicians don't pay to get into venues( usually ) so their opinions don't count."..LOL. Only singer worse than ole Bob is Jimi Hendrix imo.
