This week we present an encore of Under the Covers: classic performances of songs not written by the performer. There was a time when the occupation of songwriter did not automatically include singer in the description. Usually a songwriter wrote the song and then it was performed by a singer. This began to change in the 1950s and singer-songwriters became common in the 1960s. As songwriters began to perform their own compositions, the era of the Brill Building was coming to a close.We'll hear Bob Dylan, The Flatlanders, Los Lobos, Dawn McCarthy & Bonnie “Prince” Billy and many others.
