My favorite person who covered Lightfoot is a man that none of you have heard of. Well, I take that back - my very first post to the News Group eons ago was in response to a thread Jenney started and I spoke of this same guy, so some of you may remember hearing about him :)

He was a friend of my family's when I was about 12 or 13 and toured the country playing in a restaurant chain called Ireland's. He did several Lightfoot tunes and was responsible for introducing me to Lightfoot's music. His name is Rusty Ballinger.

elvis' version of "for lovin' me" first appeared on an album 1973. But you can find it on the "Walk a Mile in my Shoes" boxset. well worth hearing!

bob dylan played I'm not supposed to care back in 1998 a few times..

I'm not overly fond of "electronic" music and Sundown isn't a song I care for to begin with. So I thought Keupper's voice was ok, but I didn't care for the arrangement at all.

I think Dylan is a brilliant songwriter, but find that vocally, he *can* be hit or miss. This one was good - he didn't mumble, I actually liked it.

Thanks for sharing the links, Joveski.

I enjoyed the Dylan version, it really was one of his better ones - what year was that? I don't think it could be too long ago.
I didn't care for the other one. But thanks Mende for sharing them, sorry I didn't respond before you had to ask.

the dylan one was from Toronto, 29 Oct 1998
