Jimi Hendrix's All Along the Watchtower

[–] Urist@lemmy.ml 12 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

In 1995, Dylan 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."
