Topic: All Along The Watchtower

[Angela]

Just the best song from that era!
(Jimi Hendryx version, of course...)

And, of course, there's the Dave version...

Oh, how he Wails! The energy this band emanates at a live concert is awesome!

I am not so sure. Who is this Jimi anyway?

Neil Young on
Bob Dylan 30th Anniversary Concert

All along the Watchtower

it is good to have seen that one before this more final partylike version
together with Bruce Springsteen

too much guitars, too much Rock'n Roll, too much of just everything ... I would say ... and I like it!

Gotta love Neil Young! 

[Michael]

Yes, I didn't think he ever performed that version live - his live performances of all his stuff was always very different to his studio versions. they had his full Wodstock gig on TV last weekend here, but I missed it  - didn't know about it till after, although I think I may have seen it many years ago (can be hard to recall such things  ).

Just throwing in some trivia of another kind.
Dylan's lyrics include an allusion to a TS Eliot poem,
"The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock"
"The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock"
    The women come and go...
        talking of Michelangelo...."

Ang may have already posted this... we have so many versions -- I think it might be our theme song.
