This coulda been better for 69. 10. Never heard of it. 9. Ok, kindof annoying at this point. 8. Great tune, the best on here. 7. Not bad for Dylan. 6. Really nice song, I like it. 5. Another nice one. 4. Good, but not their best. 3. Despite being bubblegum cartoon, still a good song. 2. Country novelty-ok, I guess. 1. Good, but a little tired of it. I like the guitar work on 'Get Together' a lot. It's surprising that it was their only single - they really had a great sound. I like 'Honky Tonk Women', but it's true that it's gotten quite a lot of airplay on both the classic rock and oldies stations. Definitely a Stones classic.

Hi dodger! I agree with you - there were a lot of great songs on the charts in the summer of '69. 'Lay Lady Lay' was a different style for Bob, but I agree that he did an excellent job with that song. I should probably investigate his album Nashville Skyline one of these days. 'Green River' is one of my favorite CCR tracks. Although overplayed, it still sounds great. I got Nashville Skyline on vinyl years ago, mostly because I consider it one of the must haves in a collection. My reasoning was because it was such a dramatic change for Dylan, I felt I needed to have. Just a little FYI on Green River. Alabama does a great cover of this song on one of their albums, can't remember which one, but it's easily as good as CCR's version.

I didn't realize Alabama had covered that one, but I'm sure it must be great. I'll have to check it out!
