In January 2010
I reported in this journal how I discovered Ben Sidran's covers of Dylan songs while listening to WBGO at work. This morning I was listening to WFUV in my car and heard a cover of Dylan's Tangled Up in Blue (Lee's favorite) by an artist named Nik Rael as seen above. At the end of the song John Platt contined to interview Nik and said that he had released a CD of Dylan covers. I made it my business to remember that name.
When I got home I googled Nick Rail, but eventually determined the correct spelling of his name. I found the CD called
Winter 61 on Amazon.com and downloaded it. Today was busy so I haven't had a chance to listen to it. My suggestion to my radio friends is to listen very carefully, since you never know what you may hear. Also, take advantage of technology.
