Various Artists – Ballad Of A Thin Man - 30 Great Versions

A song written by Bob Dylan, it first appeared as the final track of side 1 of his 6th LP “Highway 61 Revisited”.

It is sometimes titled “Mr. Jones” (for instance on the Dunhill single version by The Grass Roots).

From Wiki:

Record producer Bob Johnston was in charge of the session, and the backing musicians were Mike Bloomfield on lead guitar, Bobby Gregg on drums, Harvey Goldstein on bass, Al Kooper on organ, and Dylan himself playing piano.

Added as a bonus track is a parody version about the orange man in the White House.
