Bob Dylan - Mr. Tambourine Man

I grew up listening to Dylan. Couldn’t get enough. It's hard to pick a favorite. I really like this one.

Of course, I was first exposed to it by The Byrds.
I do a solo acoustic version of it on 12 string. Sort of combining Dylan & The Byrds.

I bet that your version was really great, too!
I was the youngest of three kids, and we each were three years apart, and my sister and brother both passed down their music preferences to me, and I found a bunch of my own as well.
Neither of them liked Dylan as much as I did.
I was a bit obsessed with him for awhile and his story, his songs, his lyrics, and his book Tarantula, of which I don't remember much now.
My favorite Dylan album is of course Blood on the Tracks, and second favorite is The Basement Tapes.
