DylanFest - "Quinn the Eskimo" Geir covers Dylan

[Geir]

This has been a long time favourite Dylan-song for me. Yeah MMEB did that one too, they did a lot of his best songs

I did it live experimenting with a new recording setup: The new B2 condencer for vox and some guitar bleeding in, a dynamic for the voice and a dynamic for the guitar + plugging in the guitar. The morgan acoustic again.

One take (not really possible to punch-in on a rough song like this). Done in a punkish folky style this time.

Well done Geir, great cover, the recording is spot on, your new mic sounds brilliant...well done.....Alex

Great rendition Geir.  Especially liked the "laughing" vocal delivery at the end.  The acoustic guitar tone was spot on.

I'm quite embarrassed to admit that I didn't realise this was a Dylan song.  Until now I would have said it was by Manfred Mann.

Geir, everything you're churning out lately is going to my piepod. We all know you're a brilliant musician. We all know you're a fantastic vocalist. We all know that you've had brilliant productions, but something is different lately.

I can't quite put my finger on it, but it sounds to me that you're either having more fun, enjoying music more than ever, or on a spiritual high of some sort.

I agree with Tony, this is a very personal cover, and your energy is very communicative
thanks

[Ted]

Don't be telling me what I have and haven't seen, motherf***er!



This put a big smile on my face.

I've always dug this one, and I perform it myself occasionally. What a spirited performance you give! Reminds me of Mike Scott/Waterboys.
Has an awesome one-take live feel to it. I would want to hear you perform this at my favorite local tavern.
