(much preferred) Cover:
Jimi Hendrix - Experience All Along The Watchtower

In all fairness, this version is so distant from the original it's difficult to categorize it as a cover.

chatillion: (much preferred) Cover:
Jimi Hendrix - Experience All Along The Watchtower

In all fairness, this version is so distant from the original it's difficult to categorize it as a cover.
Dylan has described his reaction to hearing Hendrix's version: "It overwhelmed me, really. He had such talent, he could find things inside a song and vigorously develop them. He found things that other people wouldn't think of finding in there. He probably improved upon it by the spaces he was using. I took license with the song from his version, actually, and continue to do it to this day."

In the booklet accompanying his Biograph album, Dylan said: "I liked Jimi Hendrix's record of this and ever since he died I've been doing it that way... Strange how when I sing it, I always feel it's a tribute to him in some kind of way."

@ PK Never heard of that band but they sound good, real sixties. I see they originally did "Walk Away Renée" which was covered later by The Four Tops in 67. Sadly I also see that all the members of the band have now died.
