... Sings Dylan II

Cover versions of Bob Dylan songs from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ archives, with Joan Baez, Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Hollies, Adele, Julie Felix, Richie Havens, Bryan Ferry and KT Tunstall.

A feast of cover versions of Bob Dylan songs from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ archives, with classic tracks old and new and some surprises from the 1960s to the present.

From the essential folk queen Joan Baez to punk princess Siouxsie and the Banshees, from The Hollies to Adele, taking in the likes of Julie Felix, Richie Havens, Bryan Ferry and KT Tunstall along the way, the programme reflects Dylan's long career of writing extraordinary songs and the fascination of other artists with them.

Peter, Paul and Mary's sublime The Times They Are A-Changin' rubs shoulders with the close harmony of Cliff Richard and The Nolan Sisters' smooth interpretation of the protest classic Blowin' in the Wind. The Blues Band's energetic 1980s updating of Maggie's Farm contrasts with Tom Jones's powerful rootsy What Good Am I?

A treat for the Dylan fan and the Dylan novice alike.
