Been a while. Strange correlation I blog more when there is a subtraction in my life. This blog appears to be doing okay without me being here. Anyway, Bob Dylan has provided many a song to cover. One of my favorite Dylan tunes is "Girl from the North Country."
Bob's version...
Contender One: Pete Townsend
Contender Two: Passenger
Tell me who you like in the comments, and I will celebrate the winner in a week or so (try not to make it 10-months)

Welcome back!
I much preferred Pete Townshend's cover of this song. I liked his voice better as well as the arrangement.
I don't remember this song at all, but I like Pete Townsend's version better. It's the vocals. Welcome back! ☺
VOTE = Pete Townshend.
I liked the musical style of the Passenger version, but the singer's voice put me off a little.
Pete Townsend is my pick. He's even above Bob Dylan for me. Nice to see you back
Hokey-Smoke! MIKE, you're back? I'll immediately reactivate your blog link in my list of BOTB participants. (Then I'm going to bed. All this snow & wind has got me down, and I'm just gonna try to sleep through it all. Maybe get outta bed in a week or so.)
Wish I could bust up this shutout but I agree with the others. I actually liked the guitar sound in the Passenger recording, and I could have seen myself voting for it... had there been a different singer.

Hi, Mike! This is one I don't remember hearing before. That's odd since Dylan has always been pretty popular around here. Townsend doesn't cut it for me, so I'm going with Passenger though I wish we had yet another choice ;-) Welcome back!
Thought you were gone from here on out, but it's nice to see you again.
Both versions were fine but the one by Passenger resonated with me more. I give my vote to them.
