It always seems to me as if "Wagon Wheel" is done with a lot of folk harmonising, but I must confess I've never heard a recording.

Okay, neat. I'd never heard the song before.

Didn't know you could sing tenor, although I must confess I've little enough concept of what those ranges actually mean--I think of my own voice chiefly in terms of keys and capo positions.

I'm a dark-voiced lyric soprano; I have a good range, but I don't work extensively in my lower register, as I would if I were a mezzo or a contralto. This was rocky and bent toward sprechstimme on the rise of the verses; it seemed to work for Dylan. I wouldn't use it much, though: it wouldn't be healthy.

I hope your next visit with the sea allows for your going in.

Thank you. I will insist.
