Buftex Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 This is one of my favorites... great singer, making a well-known song her own...and giving it a whole different, but respectful tone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Dave Matthews Band does a great rendition of All Along The Watchtower. that can't hold a candle to Jimi's cover and is blaspheme IMO- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buftex Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cz8_H5m6ymAOn the anniversary of Joe Strummers death, was gonna post the Clash doing Bobby Fullers "I Fought the Law"...but realizing we have a lot of Cash fans....I submit this awesome Bob Marley cover of "Redemption Song"...fitting that it was one of the last things either men recorded.

Buftex Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Reminded me of another great one...a very original take on the old Left Banke hit, "Don't Walk Away Rene" by Billy Bragg and guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Dan's Revenge Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 that can't hold a candle to Jimi's cover and is blaspheme IMO- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLV4_xaYynY Jimi's is probably the best, but I think DMB's version is better than Dylan's. Plus, everyone has already heard Jimi's, but maybe not DMB's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, everyone has already heard Jimi's, but maybe not DMB's. The title of the thread should be tweeked a little. What defines "classic?" When Jimi did it, IMO, it wasn't classic by Dylan. Heck, Jim practically did it within the same year Dylan did it! 1967/68 by Dylan. Dylan and Jimi's came out during the same era and like I said within almost the same year... SO, Jimi made it a classic! The thread should morph into good or better remakes of the original... Drop the whole classic bit. That's a little easier. One song that totally fits that bill is REM's "Superman." Anyway, on the converse and speaking of remakes that are God awful... w/All Along the Watchtower... Anybody remember Jim Schoenfeld's abortion of that song and his equally disturbing album... LoL ??

bbb Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Dylan actually started playing the Jimi version And, yes - I still have the Schony album. Hey, Bulldog! I saw her Standing There! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
