Give Me Strength, is sitting on my desk, 6 discs from Clapton’s recordings form 74-75 and it includes his version of Knocking on Heavens Door.
Bob’s version is, of course, definitive although almost everybody has covered it. The lyrics and surprisingly sparse and the song is dominated by the repetitive soulful chorus.
We get it, it’s brilliant, I hope it’s a while before I am.
..waiting Kat……

My Dear Hedley,
You must learn to be patient. I haven’t even received it yet, but when I do, I’ll spin it, so to speak.
I was amazed by how many have covered this song.

So you bought the $99.00 mega bob with two books and stuff

My Dear Hedley
I bought it used at $76.00.

Kat,
KOHD is so evocative of a certain time and place for me. Love it! Thanks again.
Hedley,
Your music room must be a sight to behold!

Kat, John Henry is at Anfield, he has no idea they are down 2-0 after 30 minutes…I could lip read and he was saying something about a Big Poppy

MDH,
I think he is saying what Big Poppy said which didn’t get bleeped until it was replayed later.

Toronto spins, I tried to visit and comment but without much success. I will try again.

Thanks for checking, Marie!

Hedley,
You weren’t able to get onto the blog itself or you just couldn’t comment? Kat’s kindly added the link to her blogroll and it will take you directly there. Hope you can drop in now. Let me know if there’s still a problem.

Vintage, it was leaving a comment. But that won’t deter me, really interesting musical selections

Thanks, Hedley. I’m really pleased that you find some of the songs of interest.
Cheers,

A dissenting opinion… This is one of the songs I like least by Mr. Zimmerman. Can’t explain why other than I just don’t like it. Fortunately, he’s made up for it by doing more than a few I do like.

im6,
I welcome dissenting opinions.
This was someone’s favorite so I was happy to oblige. I also happen to like it.

If Bob’s voice was always this smooth – I’d likely enjoy his singing much more. I’ve always respected his *songs* – I just do not always enjoy hearing him singing them.

Scott,
I think all his earlier albums has this same smooth voice. It was far later when his voice changed and became difficult to listen to.
