For the next edition of my Covers series, I’m looking at one of the most legendary songs ever: “All Along the Watchtower.” Originally written and recorded by Bob Dylan, it was soon made definitive by Jimi Hendrix, who turned the lyrical drama up to 11 and unleashed one of his most iconic solos. It’s a rare instance in which the cover is almost universally acknowledge as better than the original. Perhaps that’s why it hasn’t been covered in the studio by as wide a range of artists as our previous entry “Dancin’ in the Streets.” Jimi already nailed it, so what’s the use of even trying?
