[Gomi1977]

This one better show up somewhere down the line.

This one is too hard. How good it was vs the original? How good is it just in general? How good was it in its time?

 

[Takes_Two_To_Tango]

Kravitz American Woman
RATM Renegades of Funk
Sid Vicious My Way
George Harrison Got my mind set on you

lol wow that's fascinating.

 

[Takes_Two_To_Tango]

This one is too hard. How good it was vs the original? How good is it just in general? How good was it in its time?

That's a good question, I guess it's subjective when it all comes down to it.

 

[HARRISON_3]

Harry Nilsson Top Team

[Kryptt]

Eric Clapton - I Shot The Sheriff / Devo - [I Can't Get No] Satisfaction / Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower / Lenny Kravitz - American Woman / Rage Against the Machine - Renegades of Funk

 

[TheTickG]

Had no idea Harry Nilsson's version was a cover. One of my favorite songs.

 

[weaselkenievil]

One attached to a hell of a woman in my head. Fleetwood Mac cover.

 

[blaseblase]

All Along the Watchtower is one of the few covers that is miles ahead of the original. Even Bob Dylan performs the Hendrix version when he plays it live.
