Thread Name: Favorite Versions of Dylan Songs
Subject: RE: Favorite Versions of Dylan Songs
Waylon Jennings - Girl from the North Country (on The Restless Kid Live at JD's, a reissue of live recordings from 1964)
Maria Muldaur - Mr. Tambourine Man
Pete Seeger - A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall (on We Shall Overcome, live at Carnegie Hall 1963)
Joan Baez - Farewell Angelina
Joan Baez - Ring Them Bells

Waylon's early hit "Anita You're Dreaming", written by himself and Don Bowman, is in large parts stolen from Dylan's "To Ramona". But Jennings/Bowman are a lot more courteous to the girl. Ramona's "watery eyes" become Anita's "pretty blue".
