Of course, tons of stuff of Bob Dylan's is ripped off, from country and old folk tunes. Just making an observation.

golly, mark, great review but you're treating your albums like garbage!

johnny thunders...  such a good cover of that song.

Never thought to look for other Barry McGuire stuff, but that pissed-off sounding version of Sloop John B is pretty cool.

It is 3:56 in the song, and 4:46 on the video. It is the EXACT same line!

PF Sloane ripped off that line "What exactly is the matter?", the words and the vocal melody, from Bob Dylan's Ballad in Plain D

80s New Wavers Red Rockers covered "Eve of Destruction" as a single. Their biggest hit was "China." Coincidence? Yes. Yes, it is.

Glad to see the return of the Video Reviews.

I've got that Bob Dylan Discography book too seen at the start of the video! :P

Some of the PF Sloan stuff reminds me of The Hollies for some reason.
