He also did a great (& rather hilarious) cover of Absolutely Sweet Marie. And of course they worked together on the Traveling Wilburys.

The studio version from "Leon Russell & The Shelter People" doesn't seem to be on YouTube.

This one's good, the "Shelter People" version is better.

Even the title, still another palindrome, is a hat tip to Dylan. Think about it.

At around 1 minute, you'll hear Franks' buddy (I think it was a recording engineer) doing his best Bob voice.

They do a tasty Million Dollar Bash too, but I've always liked the crashing that goes on in this one.

Anything off the 30th Annniversary Concert Celebration CD is rocks too, especially a blistering Highway 61 with Johnny Winter.
