Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
I’m not sleepy and there is no place I’m going to
Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I’ll come following you
Taken from the album title track Mr Tamborine Man by The Byrds (1965), a cover from a Bob Dylan original. Quite surprisingly, it was actually released the same year as Dylan’s, and both were hugely successful. You can find this and other memorable cover songs here and my favourite Dylan songs here and here.

i remember this well –
One of those rare cases where the original and cover are both memorable and successful.
Oh, yes! This is such a catchy tune and the artistry was in the origin of the lyrics and song. The Byrds “nailed it!” 😀
One of my favourite ever covers. Just so easy to listen to. Rolling Stone included both the cover and the Dylan classic in their 500 Greatest Ever Songs.
Thank you, Alex for your positive response!
Stopping by to say have a great Fourth of July! 🇺🇸🎆
And the same to you 🙂
Thank you, Alex! 🎆
This and the Mighty Quinn are just fab.
Not heard that for a while. Nice choice. My favourites are Don’t Think Twice It’s Alright and Not Dark Yet.
