JIMI HENDRIX - All along the watchtower - JAMES BELL COVER

I found out about this competition yesterday from a friend on Facebook so I tried my best to do this song in time. I have always jammed along to "All along the watchtower" but I've never tried to fully learn it until yesterday before recording it in my garage Here it is. I really hope it does well. Sorry the video editing looks rushed (and out of sync in some places) but this is because I wouldn't have completed it on time otherwise. I have never covered a Jimi song before because I was too afraid but this competition made me finally do one. Please vote for me!! I also really hope the judges like my entry.

[gordonwilliamson]

I don't think even Jimi could have replicated his own song and sound to such perfection live.. Absolutely naffin' ace!

[ClaudioZanutti]

Oh boy, that's the best cover song that I have ever seen.

[fredfloyd]

James....brilliant no whammy bar and you still made this tune quite greatly...jam on..!

[paulsims]

[Noname]

James bell is a guitarist extraordinaire.

[RockyWallace-gb]

Best version yet of this iconic song...

[mountainstream]

Grew up with Jimi and this song was absolutely my all time favorite. I have searched all over you tube to find someone who could imitate Jimi's recording. You are number one in my book. You have a special gift from God, so stay humble, clean and glorify God.

[Adventurer]

I love the way you present classics in your covers-- you are true to the original, yet, you bring it to the here and now.  As always-- outstanding!

[donkeninitz]

I've been playing for 40 years: you nailed it dude!

[paulgray]

Brilliant mate. Best cover av heard. Good man.

[sonnyprince]

This definitely deserves way more views and likes considering the amount of time it’s been on YouTube.

James Bell, kicking butt and taking names one more time.  Loved it!

[mountainstream]

Absolutely the best rendition I have ever heard, I do not think anyone beat this.

A VERY ambitious project for a youngster. I was about your age when Bob Dylan wrote and released this song on the John Wesley Harding album. Six months later, Jimi Hendrix "blew my mind" with his version. Another very nice job by you. Technically excellent. Remember, the most important element of your music is your soul. We've seen it in many of your videos. Rock guitar jam in E minor, your improvisation on "Wake me Up", etc. SHOW US YOUR SOUL, JAMES, you have it. Keep it up!! Texas is still listening!! and oh yea, i"m voting right now

[bitchphuka]

You're a genius kid. Watched a quite a few of your videos this past few week or two. Nothing less than outstanding. I've lived and loved Rock music for nearly 40 years, so I've seen the best. You're parents must be so proud. Keep at it. You can only get better.

[jimideez]

From 1 James to another, WOW!
Fine job son. Don't ever stop!
You don't just play the notes, you've got REAL FEELING!
Rock On!
