Dylan of the Day : Bob Dylan - Percy's Song (live 1963)

 I will sign off the day with this and what a wonderful version of this song here with that very particular harmonica use here . . so beautiful and what a powerful song . . . . . a heartfelt plea for justice and humanity from the maestro


"It may be true, he's got a sentence to serve. But ninety-nine years, he just don't deserve." Another masterpiece (my favorite) about (some) incomprehensible rules of law. What a storytelling. How one tries to help a friend. You have to hear this on your headphones, the harmonica is beautiful. This is live!! In my ears absolute perfection. Enjoy!"
