Aside from Ry Cooder, I don’t think I’ve ever met anybody do it better and sing at the same time. There was one time we were rehearsing part of the acoustic set. It was the first time I’d actually listened very closely to how they were doing “Hattie Carroll.” I was really moved by it, so much so that I didn’t want to get back on my drums and play the rock part of the show. I wanted to hear more of that.“ – Winton Watson in Flagging Down The Double E’s” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:18|text_align:left|line_height:1.4″ google_fonts=”font_family:Muli%3A300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic|font_style:300%20light%20italic%3A300%3Aitalic” css=”.vc_custom_1659931308519{margin-top: -10px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1659970477182{margin-top: 20px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;}”]

But Wedding Song outs itself as a strong Dylan piece and a stock bit for The Band. Their appeal would grow and grow, eventually capitalising on it entirely with The Basement Tapes. It makes Planet Waves feel like the outline of something greater.“
