Bob Dylan, Rage against the machine
Renegades

As usual I had to have all the albums of Rage against the machine. All songs are covers and not really done all the songs separately apart from Maggie’s Farm (Bob Dylan). This was their last album and they had too leave us all wanting more… It was released in 2000, after Rage singer Zack de la Rocha had already left the band, but featured his vocals. It is rumored that Zack did not want the album to be released… interesting

Simple Twist of Fate

May be, this song has nothing to do with Joan Baez. But in her own words, Bob Dylan is one who is so good with words, and at keeping things vague. And when Baez covers a Dylan song, it’s also about making it a little less vague. The same year Dylan released this song, he was also touring with Baez for his Rolling Thunder Revue. Baez covered Simple Twist of Fate soon after that tour. Baez didn’t interchange every he and she in the song, but changed the last verse almost completely. And that seems to complete the blame on the simple twist of fate.
