Dave Matthews Band – “All Along the Watchtower”
This is the 100th Soothing the Beast BFP/Jamiol Music Pick. That’s a whole lotta picks and we’ve covered quite a range of music. I’ve been thinking about this one for the past couple of weeks and wanted something special. All Along the Watchtower by the Dave Matthews Band is just that. Dylan did it first and the Jimi Hendrix 1968 version was an absolute classic. The Dave Matthews Band at this concert in Central Park take this great song to another level.
