Courtney Love covers Bob Dylans 'Like a Rolling Stone' from: clock

The rocker covered the sixties classic in London with the actor author Todd Mandel

In May 1966, Bob Dylan sang in the Royal Albert Hall. Almost 60 years later, Courtney Love performed the classic right next door.

On Tuesday, Love was in conversation with the actor author Todd Almond in the Royal Geographical Society in London and celebrated the publication of his new oral history Slow train comes: Bob Dylan's 'girl from the Nordland' and Broadway's rebirth (Almond played in the Dylan Musical and was loved in her Opera debut in 2015. Kansas City Chor Boy).

After her interview on stage, Love got up and tore through the classic of the 1960s, with almond backing vocals. Supported by the acoustic guitar, she conquered every long line – just stopped a few times to throw the Lyric Sheet in her hands. Try it down below.

While she spoke to the crowd, Love again confirmed that Loch has not reunited (she has released these rumors over the years) and that she has plans to tour soon.

The event follows the recent appearance of Love's on stage with Billie Joe Armstrong from Green Day when she came to his cover band (The Coverups) to cheap tricks “He is a whore” and “Surrender” as well as Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers “even The Losers”.

“My name is Courtney Love,” she told the crowd. “You may not remember me. I have been living in a cave in Birmingham for about nine years. We'll try damn it, right? “

Last year Love wrote a burning open-eD in The guardian About the lack of female artists in the Rock'n'roll Hall of Fame. “The canon production of the Rock Hall not only provides sexist goal performance, but also targeted ignorance and hostility,” she wrote. “If the rock hall is not ready to examine the way it replicates the violence of structural racism and sexism, with which artists in the music industry are faced with if it cannot really honor what visionary artists created, innovative, revolutionized and contributed to popular music -let them go into hell in a handbag.”
