Great clarity, arrangement, writing, and vocals. She was writing and playing at 8yo. R&B all the way.
Supposedly, Bob Dylan wrote this song after going to a Bruce Springsteen concert with a band mate and wrote it as a sort of Tribute to his music. Bruce was doing a bit in concert where he was calling himself "Half Man Half Monkey" and there was born "the Monkey Man". There are many references to Bruce song titles and themes and lyrics such as Thunder Road, Stolen Car, Highway 99, Mansion on the Hill, Lions Den, Night, The River, Paradise, State Trooper, Factory, and Jersey Girl. Just a story about where ideas come from, I suppose.
Sad to see two of the Wilburys pass (George Harrison, Roy Orbison). I don't think any other Wilburys came forward to join.

That's funny, the last thing I listened to was the Dire Straits Moving Pictures album. Two great minds I guess. Here's another great one from the same album.
The original from Neil Yong it pretty great and so is the cover by Dave Matthews/Warren Haynes, but I'm really loving this one.
Jeff Beck almost 50 years ago -
"Linear notes for this song (Back cover): "Probably the rudest sounds ever recorded, intended for listening when angry or stoned. Last note of song is my guitar being sick-well so would you be if I smashed your guts for 2:28"."
One of my favorite quotes for over 40 years.

Holy lamb
See the world we started
Is it so low again
Like a light that's lost upon the stage
So the more it shines, it goes away
Surely then
See the curtain rising to show us once again
All the magic of the earth and the skies
See the more we find
The more we realize
That every time
See the laws of nature keep telling us like a friend
It's the spirit of emotion dancing to the wind
High above
High above
So sure inspired again
I can tell a new story now
Can we see through this mask of uncertainty
Surely now
How can it be so hard when all there is to know
Don't be afraid of letting go
It takes a loving heart
To see and show
This love
For our own ecology
Hold the light
Hold the light
Out of love we'll come a long long glorious way
At the start of every day
A child begins to play
And all we need to know
Is that the future is a friend of yours and mine
He had just done Neil Young ~ Down By The River the last time I browsed his videos.
He just added a few recently. Excellent. He makes some of the best YT music Videos.

"Yes" was my, absolute, favorite band when I was in high school. I loved "Genesis" as well, although I'm a little partial to the Peter Gabriel years.
And look what was up next, one of the smokiest songs ever 
Videos of the studio version were nixed recently.
Here's why. They were gearing up for their own "Topic" channel.
