Please tell Mark Ronson that, unfortunately, he won't be the first to officially remix Bob Dylan. Believe it or not, Danish DJ Funkstar De Luce wasfirst: in 2001 he was allowed to release a remix of All Along The Watchtower. Also Sly & Robbie did a remix of I & I on the quite wonderful reggae Dylan tribue "Is It Rolling Bob".
Cheers, Martin Schaefer

I & I wasn't remixed by Sly & Robbie, but by Doctor Dread.

Also : There is the Brendan O'Brien remix of Dignity on Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits, Vol. 3 (The original Daniel Lanois version can be found on the Touched By An Angel CD).
There is also the remix of Love Sick on the Victoria's Secret Exclusive Lovesick CD.
There is also the remix of Street Legal, Blonde On Blonde, Positively 4th Street, etc., etc., etc.

You're quite right about I & I. But I would not count the others as remixes in the modern sense - technically, they may be, but except for Brendan O'Brien's Dignity, they do not add or subtract anything from the originals.

Thanks for reminding me about Dignity though - I quite forgot that the Greatest Hits Vol.3 version was not identical to the Lanois original. Now where did I put that Touched By An Angel CD?

Yours truly, Martin Schaefer

You're right about the others (Blonde On Blonde, etc.), not really adding/subtracting anything from the originals (just different instrumental levels/placings).
But I would say that the earliest "true" remix of a Dylan track would have to be Had A Dream About You Baby on the 1987 Hearts Of Fire CD.
The remixed version on Down In The Groove uses the same vocal track, but the instrumental backing has been replaced by a new one.

hey

There's a good remix of Subterranean Homesick Blues too, found it on you tube.

Does the alternative mix of Slow Train Coming count?

You're all forgetting the very first Dylan remix, waaaayyyy back in 1964 when Tom Wilson overdubbed electric instruments on to "House of the Rising Sun" off of Bob's eponymous debut album, a la the hit version of "The Sound of Silence".
