Bob Dylan knew - and often played - most of the songs he covered on Good As I Been To You for his entire professional life. In this episode we examine the original versions of these songs (there are always more than a few) and other interesting covers that have been done since Dylan's 1992 release.

There is an Extended Version of this episode available. Details below.

Joining is Ray Padgett, who runs the Flagging Down The Double E's newsletter and is a cover-songs expert via his coversongs.com website and book. In this episode we listen to many of the specific early songs & versions that Dylan probably based his takes on, and Ray shares interesting other cover versions of these songs.

We've made playlists of the songs from this episode - and more - for Apple Music, Spotify, and Tidal. See the links below. Give these a listen, then go back and listen to Good As I Been To You with fresh ears.
