I actually prefer this to the original. He did a whole album called 'Rock Swings' which contained some great covers.

I actually thought of posting this too, but then thought the original surpasses the cover, but only by a smidgin. Both amazing performances though, good call.

Dylan over the years has certainly come in for some stick, some deserved and some not IMO. I must admit though, when I first heard this it stopped me dead in my tracks.

Chinese Rocks - Johnny Thunder and The Heartbreakers

Why does love got to be so sad? - Derek and The Dominos

I tried one of the early Ashdown 4x8 cabs, and was a bit unimpressed IIRC. Quite loud but didn’t like the tone, and thought the heavy weight of the cab somehow defeated the object of the exercise so just went with their ABM 410. Paired with an early ABM500 head, it sounded so much better than the 4x8, and not that much harder to lug around. Haven’t tried the recent 4x8 Neo cabs though so may be better sounding and hopefully lighter.

Ain’t no doubt - Jimmy Nail

Suspicious minds - Elvis P.

I don’t know anything about speaker alignment and the limitations of 8 inch speakers etc. However I do know that the SWR Henry 8x8 cab I had sounded wonderful and was one of the best I’ve played through. One has recently sold on here for peanuts, bought by Dad3353, Douglas to his friends. ( I believe SWR did a 4x8 version too, Henry Jr?)

Great song and great video too. Can’t beat Mr Cooder.
