Baby Please Don't Go

edit

I don't believe this song was written by Dylan. Wasn't it a cover of a Big Joe Williams song? Kitchen roll (talk) 21:48, 24 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

You are correct, I don't know how I included it. Now removed. --Richhoncho (talk) 19:25, 25 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

If I Was King

edit

Why do you leave out If I Was King?

Though it sounds very old, even ancient, no one has traced it to a source other than Bob Dylan. It is definitely his composition, trying to sound ancient? EDLIS Café 17:05, 9 November 2015 (UTC) EDLIS Café 13:52, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

Down by the Station

edit

I'm not seeing "Down by the Station", the demo from The Basement Tapes Complete that is credited to him. Is it here under a different title, or is it alleged that this song wasn't actually written by him? Or is it just missing? YouCanDoBetter (talk) 18:32, 24 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Just missing, now added. I am sure there might be more, the time has passed when I knew the titles by heart. --Richhoncho (talk) 19:23, 24 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
