200736 - Its an Easy Rain - Easy Does Dylan




Well I know you've all been hanging out for a new Xtabay compilation and here it is Dylan goes commercial as easy listening and pop artists do Dylan.  An eclectic mix ranging from the pop stylings of Brain Ferry explaining thats its all over for Baby Blue and Chet Baker turning three times not to mention those legends of surf the Surfaris doing a surprisingly good version of Like a Rolling Stone. When the surf craze died after about fifteen minutes the good old Surfaris tried to squeeze out another 15 seconds of fame and about 15 friends and relatives actually bought their shamelessly exploitive folk rock record. Oh I must mention the Walker Brothers featuring the legendary Scott Walker (nee Engel) and probably the best version of Love Minus Zero you'll ever hear. Add in James Last, Claude Denjean and the Arbors and its easy listening heaven.

2007325 - Easy Does

Posted by Aufpet
Excellent stuff, and much appreciated, as are all things Dylan, of course. Incurable pedants like me might quibbe that "Turn, Turn, Turn" isn't really a Dylan song, but who's counting? Thank you!
