9. How about some Hendrix?
And no, it's not the one you think. (though that's great too. Even Dylan thought it was better)

26. "And all of your children resent you"
"Won't you, come see me, Queen Jane"

From the most recent RollingStone interview

"Strangely enough, sometimes we'll hear a cover of a song and figure we can do it just as well. If somebody else thought so highly of it, why don't I? Some of these arrangements I just take. The Dead did a lot of my songs, and we'd just take the whole arrangement, because they did it better than me. Jerry Garcia could hear the song in all my bad recordings, the song that was buried there. So if I want to sing something different, I just bring out one of them Dead records and see which one I wanna do. I never do that with my records."

45. LOL, I thought you meant covers, like album covers. I was
hoping to find a photo of that cover of "Infidels." That's my favorite Dylan cover...

But I know what you mean.
