Listen To Bob Dylan Cover Leonard Cohen’s “Dance Me To The End of Love” Montreal (10/29/23)

Life has kept me busy of late and so I haven’t been following Dylan’s most recent tour that closely. I know he’s been covering songs that relate to the towns he has been playing in. Last night he covered Leonard Cohen and I just had to listen. It’s pretty great.

Watch Wilco Perform “Spiders (Kidsmoke)” in Tulsa (09/26/23)
