Thank you very much Bob :)  My wife and I saw Bob Dylan a little over a year ago, and I liked that they played an instrumental version of the song while Bob and his band came on stage.

Been away for awhile so I missed this one.  Really love that song, especially by Eva Cassidy.  You did a great job on this Derek.  Thanks for sharing.

Wonderfully done! Heathen held at bay nicely, you were ready. This open mic got you on the big stage Derek! Your up right after an oldie organic group from my youth called the Seeds. I’ll pull them right off after they play their one hit. Give you plenty of time before Boz  Scaggs and the Thunderbirds. Excellent performance!
