Tell Tale Signs

The forthcoming Bob Dylan Bootleg Series Vol. 8, coming out early next month, contains the haunting, heavily hooked "Dreamin' of You". Another remarkable outtake that might help define the oeuvre of another artist here just missed out appearing on the classic "Time Out of Mind." The video, based on this classic Dylan outtake, below features Hollywood rebel Harry Dean Stanton, and is, albeit promotional, a little gem of time, mood, and Western desert light:

A download of the classic "Dreamin' of You" appears at the Bob Dylan website; this tune will not leave you:
