"You Must Believe Me" is a Curtis Mayfield-written song for his group The Impressions' 1965 album People Get Ready. This mix features the original along with contemporary versions by Don Covay & The Goodtimers, The Zombies performing live on the BBC and Johnny Rivers performing at The Whisky A Go Go.
"Wicked Messenger" is a song from Bob Dylan's 1967 album John Wesley Harding. This mix also includes versions by The Faces, Marion Williams and Patti Smith.
"Wanted Man" was written by Dylan for Johnny Cash. The mix includes a recently unearthed duet version.
One other song repeats this week, Sharon Van Etten's "Seventeen": the album version and a duet between Van Etten and Norah Jones.
The rest: Gang Starr's aptly-titled "New York Strait Talk", Jr. Walker & The All Stars' cover of Carole King's "It's Too Late", Barry White's group The Love Unlimited Orchestra with a cover of The Bee Gees' "Night Fever", Slick Rick's 1999 collaboration with Outkast's Big Boi called "Street Talkin'", Paul Simon's reflective "Graceland", the 70s groover "Take It Easy Soul Brother" by Corner Boys & Friends, L'Orange's collaboration with Kool Keith on "Upwards. To Space!", the epic Bob Dylan poem "Last Thoughts On Woody Guthrie" interpreted by P.P. Arnold, the sweetly suggestive "Bucking Bronco (My Love Is A Rider) by Girls Of The Golden West and the original version of "They're Blind" by The Replacements.
