I can't recall any that I didn't like.

However, . . .

"You've got to hide your love away" This was a cover of the song as originally done by a vocal quartet called "the Silky." The album had perhaps a dozen songs, at least ten of which were Dylan compositions, and the instrumental accompaniment credits were given to Lennon, McCartney and Harrison.

"Back in the USSR" and "Paperback Writer" were examples of the Boys' tendency to admire the competition by recreating a style. Try to imagine the Beach Boys singing the former and The Monkees singing the latter.
