This is a cover of an original song by Danny Boy Davidson. He did the original on 6 string guitar but said he wanted to try it on a cigar box guitar. I was able to do it by re-tuning a 4 string CBG to open A. This video is being published with his permission.

The original video can be found here: https://cigarboxnation.com/video/i-dont-care-2

Oh good golly. I can't live up to Dylan. He's a genius. I appreciate the compliment though. Thanks for checking out the video Bob.

I agree with Silent Jim.  Very Dylanesque but you do sound better than Dylan.  Thanks for sharing this and the open A tuning.  I enjoy hiding in a room alone and playing Knocking On Heaven's Door.  Now I can play it on a 4 string.

Thanks Uncle. I really like Danny’s stuff so I hope it inspires others.

That song is a hard hitter.  Great job and a big affirmation for Danny.

Ha ha. I hear ya Jim. It's definitely a sad song.
