James Bell X - All Along the watchtower Jam

This is me jamming to a backing of Jimi Hendrix's version of "All Along The Watchtower" (written by Bob Dylan). Please SUBSCRIBE and SHARE if you like this! :-)

If you wish to hear my own original Hendrix inspired rock songs, you can check them out here .

I'm using a BlackStar HT60 cranked on the clean channel and an Xvive Tube Drive for a big boost.

BEST EVER VERSION OF HEINDRIX
INSTRUMENTAL OF THIS SONG.
HEINDRIX WILL LOVE THIS GUY.

[merlepatterson]

This is such a rarity. There are many players on YouTube, but it's extremely rare to come across someone with the full rounded technical and emotional sense of what guitar playing is actually all about. Technique, nuance, emotion and construction are abundant with James as natural gifts.

Very few are willing to learn the genius stuff this young man is learning. He's keeping greatness alive.

[robinperronjones]

I have come back to this video on numerous occasions as a Hendrix fan, well done James for keeping Jimi’s music alive and truly well, excellent !!!!

[diariodeumaprendizdeguitar]

I don't know what is more wonderful, the song or James...

[sezles]

Without Hendrix's cover of this Dylan track this and many more covers wouldn't exist. However in my 73rd year I can say most excellent young man and you have put your own stamp on it rather than just copying like many can. Bravo.

[taketheredpill]

Not to mention that he's playing this with a squier. Top notch dude!

[alexanderguestguitars]

I just can't believe what you play. You've got the speed and the accuracy of Van Halen and the touch of Dave Gilmour. And the tone you manage to get is unceasingly superb. And all from a Squire Strat!
Astonishing.

[baconweiser]

That was absolutely AMAZING. To be truthful, I even think Jimi would appreciate your talent. :D

[StevenOslica]

Been a Hendrix fan longer than you been alive you sounded really good play on

[paulsims]

Makes me think about smashing my guitar to bits, followed James for years now, genius, pure genius.

[lynndow]

Fil from Wings of Pegasus said to visit. I am pleased to help at all with the awful illness that befell you and looking forward to hearing you play. Best luck to you, you talented soul!

[syllamiasse]

J adore j’ai écouter tout les larys de Jimi Hendrix c’est le meilleur bravo

[Karlgolden]

Something about the sound of a strat is magical. Nice! Had to comment again! Loved it!

[arthur]

Well done, you added something new that added substantially to the song.

[harleyhipwell]

Good to see younger people playing such amazing songs by hendrix his a great player too go on son

[jamesrobison]

I love my 99.00 squire too. It feels so much better than the strat. I have had for yrs.

[bbasche]

JAMES, SOME OF MY EARLIEST ROCK MEMORIES ARE OF HENDRIX. YOU'RE DOING A GREAT JOB. KEEP IT UP.

[doctorbillzable]

What kind of A-hole has to make it known that he /she didn't like a video, especially one like this, by "Thumbing Down"? Unless I find one extremely offensive, which is rare, I just click to another. Why try to discourage young, talented musicians? Just walk away from it. Great work James!!
