Personal taste for sure. I’m always drawn to the Dylan songs that have some drama or quirky phrasing built in to them.
Tambourine Man was one of those many songs Dylan wrote that he didn’t put a lot of production into himself when he recorded them but became a huge gift to another artist that did put the work in…The Byrds with Tambourine Man, Jimi Hendrix with All Along the Watchtower, George Harrison with If Not For You, all the way down to Adele doing Make You Feel My Love.
I think Olivia Newton-John did the definitive version of “If Not For You”.
