Nobody Sings Dylan Like Dylan, Vol. 11: Lookin' For a New Friend

Happy new year, fellow Dylan cover fans! Volume 9 of this series featured songs that hadn't been covered in the first eight sets. To kick off the second season of NSD, this one features artists who have not previously appeared in this series. One special note: track 5, "I Thew it All Away" performed by Paul Kelly, comes from a KCRW special called "Oh Merci!", hosted by John Wesley Harding, on Dylan's birthday in 1993. My friend Bob taped about 30 minutes of it, from which I've culled this track--but if anyone has the full show, please share it!

And while I'm making requests, here's another, for Randall (in memory of his friend Mike): can someone send me a lossless version of Bruce Springsteen's performance of "Forever Young" at the John Hammond tribute show? Randall gave me an MP3 version, and it's beautifully heartfelt; I'd love to include a lossless version in a later volume of this series.

That's it for now. Please keep the suggestions and files coming! As always, thanks to the tapers, the original uploaders, the folks who've sent me recordings, the fine artists who've created cover artwork, and especially the performers and composer. Due to the many different sources, I am not including lineages. I have done nothing to the original files but normalize the levels and fade in and out on each track (using Cool Edit). Enjoy!
