Pray let us not forget that Bob himself was half white

So what has skin got to do with it?

The guitar playing was good, its very hard to cover a Bob song and not sound like a weak copy of Bob unlesss you completely change the arangement of the song or something.

mediocre at best, and as a white dude who grew up in JA i am eminently qualified to judge.
