365 Days of Dylan, Day 12: When The Night Comes Falling From The Sky

365 Days of Dylan, Day 12: When The Night Comes Falling From The Sky from Empire Burlesque.

I like the alternate take from Dylan's Bootleg Series, Volumes 1-3, Rare and Unreleased, 1963-1991. This version has a cleaner, more straightforward sound. It starts slow and picks up with a cheerful energy.

Then there's Jeff Healey's burning cover, featured in the movie Roadhouse, that starts out sounding more than a little like "All Along the Watchtower."
