  • The NYC recording is such a gem - I'd never connected with this song until I heard the "Bootleg" version. My voice isn't as high as Bob's so I tuned pretty far down: open C#, which is about as low as my 000 can handle before the strings get rubbery.

    I’m gonna say something controversial: I like your Bob Dylan covers A LOT more than the originals. You sing much better than he could and you never whine like he constantly did. Your style really lets the lyrics breathe. I’d love an entire album of your Dylan covers… (Carson’s Version) 😂 Of course, a full album of your originals as solo acoustic would be very welcome as well!

    • @richhahn2443

    • @markcounseling
      @markcounseling Před 9 měsíci +4

      I can't say that I like them more, because the first ones were something like gold. But Carson refines them, makes something very polished out of a rough thing. And he has such an amazing feeling for the story, always. Great artist.

    Wonderful cover Carson! Thank you so much for going with the original New York lyrics. So much more heart and power compared the re-write released on BotT. More Blood, More Tracks deluxe is one of my favorite box sets. Always blows my mind to slip disc 1 into the player and hear him toss this out as the first song played in the entire sessions. It still brings me a chill...

    That was an amazing rendition of this song. I always felt this was one of Dylan’s best but I think I focused even more on the melody and the lyrics with Carson singing it here. What a song……kind of sad but a little glimmer of light at the end. The group of musicians you are a part of are so sensitive and you have so much respect for the past and the giants of music. Any Mt Rushmore in music will have Bob Dylan up there. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us and thank you for making me love this particular song even more than I already did. Keep singing and playing!!

    Dylan's genius is that of other great musicians--his songs can be interpreted by others and still preserve their emotional power. How many Dylan covers have there been? More than 1500. Carson, who I never tire of listening to, and whose versatility is breathtaking, made this melancholy tune sound fresh and new.

    If you see her, say hello
    She might be in Tangier
    She left here last early spring
    Is livin' there, I hear
    Say for me that I'm all right
    Though things get kind of slow
    She might think that I've forgotten her
    Don't tell her it isn't so
    We had a falling-out
    Like lovers often will
    And to think of how she left that night
    It still brings me a chill
    And though our separation
    It pierced me to the heart
    She still lives inside of me
    We've never been apart
    If you get close to her
    Kiss her once for me
    I always have respected her
    For doin' what she did and gettin' free
    Oh, whatever makes her happy
    I won't stand in the way
    Though the bitter taste still lingers on
    From the night I tried to make her stay
    I see a lot of people
    As I make the rounds
    And I hear her name here and there
    As I go from town to town
    And I've never gotten used to it
    I've just learned to turn it off
    Either I'm too sensitive
    Or else I'm gettin' soft
    Sundown, yellow moon
    I replay the past
    I know every scene by heart
    They all went by so fast
    If she's passin' back this way
    I'm not that hard to find
    Tell her she can look me up
    If she's got the time
