Thanks

[@brucewayne3602]

is it Bryan Ferry or Oliver Thompson ??? ... perhaps it is OT with BF === brilliance personified !!!

[@roseblake5803]

Thank you Mr. Bob Dylan for writing one of the most iconic songs ever.

[@catholiccowboy8545]

thank you rose and send me some fish and chips. BD.

[@Vinterfrid]

Thank you, Jimi Hendrix, for converting a bland mediocre song into a masterpiece.

[@rogerraymondunplugged]

He always surrounds himself with gorgeous leggy singers and young talented backing musicians. His sound is unique. He’s probably the best dressed performer in the world. Love everything he reproduces. Iconic.

[@navagugutzer101]

Bingo!

[@brucemckay6683]

Since Robert Palmer passed😊

[@lilibethabiera6960]

Well, there is one Tony Hadley,

[@1KJO]

They all copied Ferry.

[@sultanoftippoo3857]

Superb version and props to the young lad on the Red Strat I bet his mum and dad are really proud of him.

[@raelenesmith288]

Got to meet young Oliver when Ferry toured 2007. Nice kid!

[@melldijkstra8502]

@@raelenesmith288 what’s he doing now? Like his style!

[@1KJO]

@@melldijkstra8502 I know he did a solo record a few years back, think he's still with the king of style when he's on tour though. (Oliver Thompson, style on guitar strings!)

[@gs8459]

J’avoue il assure

[@williamt2951]

Isn't that Bryan's son playing lead guitar?

[@chriswilson2507]

Unbelievable version of a classic. Incredible performance from the young lead guitarist and of course Ferry at his best!!!

[@MrConan89]

Bryan started university in Newcastle on the same day as me. He was doing 'fine art' and I was studying engineering. I was doing Dylan and other stuff at the Uni folk club and some lads asked me to front their new band. I turned them down as an engineering course was 'hard yakka'. They asked Bryan instead. I now play this song as a solo number at some of my regular gigs that I am still performing at the age of 76.

[@catinthehat906]

Great story. Not sure if you know but hard 'yakka' is Aussie slang- derived from an indigenous aboriginal word for work.

[@Trillennial]

You sound like a person who I'd like to have a pint with!

[@giuseppeplaitano1177]

Thanks,love Bob and Bryan long time ago.

[@glennbate8005]

Love the way Bryan smiles at the end, he's knows that's a world class performance.

[@cathymorgan3962]

WOW such an amazing combination of the most beautiful, smoothest voice ever and an incredible backing....just had to hear this over again!

[@rosalindchurcher8028]

Everyone loves a Dylan song......Dylanesque is awesome ❤️

[@roaldyboy]

Honestly, this is just about the best version I’ve heard, that 12 year old kid on guitar is amazin

[@lisabaltzer4190]

The kid is good, but I think he is about 16.

[@roaldyboy]

@@lisabaltzer4190 Ha Ha, I was just kidding about the age

[@lisabaltzer4190]

@@roaldyboy I know, but he really looks like a teenager. When I graduated high school, I looked like I was 12 years old.

[@roaldyboy]

@@lisabaltzer4190 you were a late bloomer! That’s good, you still look young and beautiful now I’m sure! Keep rocking girl!

[@raelenesmith288]

Absolutely! Oliver Thompson is his name, and I met him when the tour came to Melbourne!

[@bruceroberts2407]

2022 and the wind is still howling from this fantastic Dylan cover.......

[@glennmorris1807]

70 years from now this will still sound great

[@georgeickhoff3646]

But maybe no one will listen...

[@RainbowLane]

Wow. Never thought I would enjoy anyone performing this but Jimi. A brilliant cover and what a talented guitarist.

[@dimitriosl.6621]

Brilliant guitar and of course great vocals from Mr Ferry. Thanks for uploading this video.

[@daveb6214]

This is what you call a singer who can actually sing and play keyboards, unlike today's crud they call music , Bryan is a Master of his Generation of music . Doubt any of today's so called stars will still be around like mr.ferry is , and most of All look how many people who are there to see this magic !!!

[@larryklawiter9168]

Nice version of this song. Great guitars and Ferry is such a presence on stage.

[@garythomas4431]

I don't think Bryan Ferry did this cover to prove anything except the fact that he loves Bob Dylan as a writer, and I'm sure there is mutual respect as Mr. Ferry has penned many great tunes himself. I wouldn't try to compare anyone's version of this song to Hendrix version, not even Bob Dylan's. I think it was brave of Ferry to take on the style challenge, and I think he and the band he put together for this outing stayed within their limits and gave us a nice performance with lots of energy. Negative statements about Mr. Ferry here are surely out of ignorance of his body work.

[@brucewayne3602]

tooo truuue ... Bryan's brilliance is eternal !!!

[@keithrussell5917]

Sooo smooth, pure excellence, all of them. They deliver an amazing feeling.

[@helenesteinberg7189]

Thanks for the post! Such a great performance by all!

[@BaahBen]

Lead guitar is excellent! That kid is a star..Just watch.

[@1KJO]

Oliver Thompson.

[@rickrosado9789]

That young kid with the red hair can really shred. Very talented young man

[@Trapatoni66]

I think so!

[@radojcicmladen7090]

Oliver Thompson 🎸👍

[@Paul-tb7zq]

He looks like he could be the son of Stevie Winwood...

[@rhondadiaz4605]

It's Oliver Thompson with the red hair also known as Ollie Forrest.

[@keithdonald6583]

Hes this good at this age ,he will be amazing when hes older

[@constantwireless3290]

NIce cover of one of Bob Dylan's greatest songs.

[@LittleGodOfThunder]

Great version. And young Thompson shines.

[@phillipwalker6517]

I love watching the backig group and singers so enjoying themselves.

[@jialixx]

One of the great covers of this amazing song. The young lead guitar really rocks

[@charliedekadens3348]

[@carlosfarias9749]

Our NObel Prize poet, in this song gave us a complete and marvellous lesson of theology, deepest feeling of the Universal Soul.

[@constantwireless3290]

Unfortunately lost on most fans of Bob Dylan.

[@stevekenny6183]

Such a polished performance, to listen to and to watch!!! Bryan Ferry as always ‘The Guvna’

[@davidhans8597]

Classic song....by a great band.....Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music! Huge fan! Seen them at the Coliseium in Richfield Ohio...doing the Manifesto album tour! Awesome!

This in my 60 year old opinion is a fine cover...

I loved & saw Roxy Music in the late 70s...Fave band then. Pretty good here too.

[@nobozos7444]

I saw then in '74, '75, and 2001. All in Detroit.

[@TheFrank552]

Oliver and the background nails nailed it!

[@TheSason666]

My god..... Brilliance....

[@countvlad8845]

The young guitarist looks like Billy Mummy from "Lost In Space." Felt my flesh rise a bit so there must still be something buried in that song that rises periodically depending on who plays it. I don't mind Ferry doing this Dylan -- the rest I'll gladly pass on.
