Editor's Award Winner

This quiz has received an Editor's Award for excellent content. Only the most unique and well written quizzes are eligible for this award.

1965's "Highway 61 Revisited" is the first album on which Dylan went entirely electric. The album was ranked as #4 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Albums of All Time (from November, 2003), and the following November, the album's opening track "Like A Rolling Stone", was named #1 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.

In this quiz, we are creating an all covers version of Dylan's extraordinary and ground breaking "Highway 61 Revisited". This album contains nine tracks, and you are asked to identify the artist I have selected to provide cover versions of each of these nine tracks. You are given considerable information about each of our undercover performers to assist you in this makeover project. You'll have to take the quiz to find out what the tenth question is about.

Assuming a satisfactory reception to this quiz, I am likely to create further "Undercover" quizzes.
