My favorite is actually 'I'm Not There', a song that was never put to an album.

But it is on a boot named - The Genuine Basement Tapes: Volume 2

Google is your friend. :shock:

Where did you hear "I'm not there"? Is it old/new? I've never heard it but Dylan is such a prolific writer I'm not surprised.

Mercy, Mercy - another Canuck - yay!

I've always liked "Like A Rolling Stone" but another favorite is the one that Jeff Beck covered called "Tonight I'll Be Staying Here With You."

I like his Chuck Berry ripoff..."Thunder On The Mountain"

There's another old blues classic on that recording he's reworked to his advantage. Don't get me wrong, I take nothing away from his creative artistry, but he does do that thing occasionally.

I also like Joe Cocker's rendition of "Watching The River Flow''

I think Dylan is one of the greatest songwriters ever. Have to say that i cannot stand the Hendrix version of All Along the Watchtower. I think he destroyed it and the whole feeling of the song was lost in a musical muddle! I love the way the original sounds so haunting.

My favourite Dylan song is prob Queen Jane or If Not For You.
Fav album alternates between Nashville Skyline, Blood on the Tracks, Highway 61 Revisited or Blonde on Blonde

Have to admit that I like most of it. Dont really like Love and Theft to name one, but in saying that, it does have some outstanding songs, especially Mississipi
