Subject: RE: Songs You Don't Do Anymore
Hmmm. I've had the nerve to do "Desolation Row" in public a number of times, and I always enjoy it thoroughly. People around here say I am Bob Dylan, but I look a lot younger and I don't smoke. Other than that, we're pretty much in the same groove, this due to my pickling myself in everything Dylan's done in the last 43 years till it became second nature.

Oh, my voice is a bit more conventional than his. Most people like that, but I love the way he sings. I don't try to imitate it, so much as just pick up certain nuances from it.

One Dylan song I've never tried to play is "Highlands".

Am just now taking a refresher on "Senor - Tales of Yankee Power". What an appropriate song to sing these days!
