Those are both Bob Dylan songs and like most that he wrote, others made hits out of them. Bob never had much of a voice on any of his songs (except a few like Lay, Lady Lay) but he has wriien 100s of songs in his career many of which were hits.

See this months Rolling Stone for Dylans top 70

They also did a great cover of Thin Lizzy's "Whiskey in a Jar". Which was actually a cover of an old folk song.
