It's a piece of piss to be cowiz, but it's not cowiz to be a piece of piss. Or something like that.

While searching Dylan tracks, I came across this by Natalie Merchant:

Re: Best cover songs in the world
It sounds like a mandolin to me as well, but there's no-one listed on wiki as playing mandolin on the album, so it's probably a banjo (EDIT or a steel guitar?):Dasein wrote:

Re: Best cover songs in the world
Definitely banjo - but beautifully played, it can be such a coarse instrument. Natalie sounds very different on this track than on the few that I have - reminds me of Beth Orton, in a very good way (if, indeed, there is a bad way!)klr wrote:It sounds like a mandolin to me as well, but there's no-one listed on wiki as playing mandolin on the album, so it's probably a banjo (EDIT or a steel guitar?):Dasein wrote:

A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return.

Who needs a meaning anyway, I'd settle anyday for a very fine view.

Yes, yes. But first I need to show you this venomous fish!
