Notes: Song Review by Thomas Ward
One of the masterpieces of John Wesley Harding, and one of Bob Dylan’s greatest songs of the 1960s, “All Along the Watchtower” was given it’s definitive reading by Jimi Hendrix, who substituted the gentle, country strains of the original for incendiary rock music. Hendrix’s appreciation of Dylan is well known, andHendrix howls the song’s lyrics with the up most reverence. However, it’s musically where Hendrix takes the song into another level. The song famously has three guitar solo’s, one Wah, one straight, and one slide (played with a cigarette lighter) – and there’s no denying the unrivalled brilliance of each one of these. Indeed, they’re arguably Hendrix’s greatest moments as a guitarist. Hendrix’s apocalyptic reading of the song turns it into one of the finest moments on Electric Ladyland, and one of the finest four minutes of the artist’s entire career.

Record GradingSS Still Sealed In factory-fresh condition.
M Mint I don't use this grade.
M- Mint Minus A near perfect, probably unplayed record.
VG+ Very Good Plus Close to like new with only superficial signs of use that don't affect play. Only well cared for records will grade out to VG+. Will satisfy all but the most demanding collector.
VG Very Good A used, reasonable copy. There will be obvious signs of wear and the possibility of light surface noise between tracks or during quiet passages, but still quite nice.
VG- Very Good Minus Significant wear and marks and usually quite noticeable surface noise.
G+ Good Plus In the record world, 'Good' is not good! From here on down (Fair, Poor), we're
Talking about beat-up records.
* Unless noted, every record is an original issue for the label and catalog number.
