"Like A Rolling Stone" was a #2 hit single for Bob Dylan in 1965, and at over six minutes twice as long as other hit singles of the time. Previous mixes have included Dylan's original album version, a live version on his later album Self Portrait and covers by Maxine Weldon, Flatt & Scruggs and The Jimi Hendrix Experience performing live at the Monterey International Pop Festival. This mix features covers by Cher, Major Harris and The Undisputed Truth.
"Afraid" is a song by Nico from her third album Desertshore, released in 1970. This mix features contemporary covers by Espers and Neko Case to accompany the original.
One other song repeats here: Sinead O'Connor's "Black Boys On Mopeds" from her 1990 album I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got, with a recent live cover by Sharon Van Etten.
The remix of Grand Puba and Sadat X's "I Like It" samples Henry Mancini and HIs Orchestra's "Here's Looking At You Kid" from the 1975 score for The Return Of the Pink Panther, which has been featured previously. "So Smooth" is also from that soundtrack.
The rest: Bob Dylan performing "Mama, You Been On My Mind" with Joan Baez and The Rolling Thunder Revue in 1975, Paris' vicious "The Devil Made Me Do It", eventual Bob Dylan producer Bob Johnston with the eerie "The Whipmaster", the explicit x-rated version of "Do Wah Diddy" by The 2 Live Crew featuring an interpolation of The Manferd Mann Band original, the sprightly "Bubble Gum" by Brigitte Bardot, the sardonic "Supersonic Rocket Ship" by The Kinks, the studio singalong "Lowdown Monkey Blues" by Paul Westerberg and Tom Waits, Carmen McRae's version of the Spiral Starecase pop standard "More Today Than Yesterday", the early Jackie DeShannon b-side "Be Good Baby", the Allen Touissanat-produced "It's Raining" by Irma Thomas, a cover of The Psychedelic Furs' "Love My Way" by Cruel Black Dove and the rare early Deram records version of "Space Oddity" by David Bowie.
