Lol, it is a Tie between
"Just Like a Woman" (Richie Havens, Mixed Bag, 1967)
or
"Knockin' On Heaven's Door" (Guns N' Roses, Use Your Illusion II, 1991)

and not that I could find.

Couldn't find a Kanye cover...I do like Beck's take on "Leopard Skin Pillbox Hat," though:

Also, wow, Neil Young's take on "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues"...Amazing:

My favorite is Ministry's "Lay Lady Lay." My second will have to be "All Along the Watchtower" by Hendrix.

I don't believe Kanye West has covered a Bob Dylan song.

My favorite is Blowin' in the Wind by "Peter, Paul, and Mary".

I have not heard about a Bob Dylan cover by Kanye West.

Sorry to be a party pooper but I cant pick just one, he is an icon as far as I
am concerned. He has so many talents to his credit and I personally love
all his music whether done by him or other talents.

I don't have an answer to your question, but I just gotta say, did anyone ever tell you you look just like the actor Michael Rosenbaum? I thought your avatar was him until you mentioned it was you.

I don't know about Kanye, but Mike Ness of Social Distortion does a mean "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright."

This haunting cover of "If you see her, say hello" by Jeff buckley is pretty hard to beat.

Excellent question and this thread has me watching/listening to some killer Dylan covers.

The first one that jumped in my head was Pearl Jam's cover of "Masters of War." Song fits Vedder's voice to a tee, in my opinion.

It's not my all time FAVOURITE cover of a Bob Dylan song, but it's the most unique one I've found.

"Oxford Town" by Crooked Still:
