Prompted by a Modesto post, I bought a copy of the soundtrack to I'm Not There - the Dylan movie from a couple of years back. From that, I've learned that the following songs were written by Dylan, though I knew them from other bands first:
- One More Cup Of Coffee - Knew from the White Stripes
- Billy 1 - Knew from Gillian Welch
- The Wicked Messenger - Knew from The Faces
I really need to listen to more Dylan.
When I realized this was a Dylan song I’m like, “Oh, duh! Of course!”

he has to be the most-covered songwriter in rock. i can’t think of anyone who even comes close.
Semi-related, I didn’t know until this weekend (when I watched the movie for the 17th time) that “The Man In Me,” which plays over the opening credits of The Big Lebowski, was Dylan.
