Larry McCray - All Along the Watchtower

Damn, this is good!

Yo, this dude is takin' no prisoners with this jam!!! I can almost hear Jimi up above sayin', "daaaymmmmn... don't be so mean son!!!"

Wow, been a fan of Larry's since I first came across Delta Hurricane over 20 years ago. He is one of the best, so if you get a chance to see him live you won't be disappointed. This is the first time I have heard this, so thanks for posting. Peace!

Damn almighty! He on fire.

funked up

wauuuuuuu good version

Saw him once in Donosti, almost 15 years ago. Never heard of him before, never forget from that day on. That´s how strong!!Like this version, so is Larry´s way.

Fuh-Huck!!

ALL ALONG THE WATCHTOWER...MACCRAY...OKEY

"Not Jimi" pffft.. so what. - It's the best for the buck in my book. I may be the only one in Oklahoma playing Larry's music every day. To the sidewalk in front of the music store. Larry is as good as it gets. Anywhere.

Sweet as pecan pie ,now.

Album: All Blues'd Up: Songs of Bob Dylan

Brilliant cover!

I like!

WaaaaoW  Smokin' version !

Best cover ever.

Great version of this song. He also does a mean version of Black Magic Woman

Its on a all blues compilation called all blues up, it a bunch of blues artist doing covers of classic rock songs, pretty great album! Hope this helps

This recording has no home. It was just released on the net, in order to show Larry McCray to the world. When I heard it I bought all McCray records available at Amazon. But there was no findings of this song! But McCray is so great. I listen allmost daily on him as I have his records as test tunes in my electronic music workshop. =)

Violin? Listen to the Dave Matthews Band version of Watchtower.

Mister McCray is here to stay - can't think of anything else off the top of my head that I'd rather be listening to!

@anonymoose711 Yeah it didn't last long - THANK YOU "S.O.N.Y." !(Standard Oil New York) As if they don't have enough -

Dynamite!

@locrow - That's the cd cover image on the video: "Tangled Up in Blues"

@janjonasappel for sure, and yes, this is incredible also jaja and sorry, for the 3, 4 o 5 comments, I thougt my explorer didn`t send it at the begining... I just realized

@janjonasappel for sure, and yes, this is incredible also

@Hugausen 4 comments lol? Hey I just think this cover is ok, that's a matter of opinion and taste. And btw: The cover of the Dave Matthews Band is way better than this one. But again: it's a matter of opinion and taste.

yeah bro! thank you for the link too. grt blueshey has he done 'everything is broken'? moPower for the anonymoose711!!!BluesRegards

@janjonasappel not so great cover...? for me its the second best cover after jimi... i think u need to hear it again...

@janjonasappel not so great cover...? para mi el 2º mejor cover dspues de la de jimi (for me its the second best cover after jimi)

Great voice, not so great cover.

wat is dit voor slechte zooi man serieus ga iets nuttigers doen -.-

wow, way cool.i'm a big larry fan, and have never been turned on to this track, - i like how he doesn't try to copy jimi, and plays it in his own inimitable style ~

solid,I enjoyed it very much. I need to get my hands on this cd

exelent

Great cover of a great song.Thanks for putting it up.

I appreciatre your comment on this video (and I agree McCray does a nice job); but to my mind the audio track on the video below is the gold standard (I'm curious to hear what you think). All Along The Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix (studio version)" - ( watch?v=14qTXRkAKr8 ) btw, that's from Jimi's "Electric Ladyland" cd. So it probably won't last long on YT (in fact I'm suprised it made it past procesing). Enjoy while you can. peace

Amazing ! Never realy liked this song but this guy gives it such a cool dynamic .with out ever hearing him before I am a big fan .

Another powerful rendition of a great tune. Good posting Squadron Leader.
