oddly enough, my favorite live version of all along the watchtower has to be the Listener Supported one. I have my own little version of watchtower too.

I agree definately my favorite intro! Do you have a tab for that--thespian? Your rendition atleast? I'd love to learn that.

Also, Id have to say one of my favoirte middle jams to watchtower is the simple version in Live at Red Rocks, almost like the old trax versions, if not identical. Have a tab for that simple rendition, I realize its probably simple original bar chords for the song, but as far as the hammers and that quick slide you hear after the F note Id like to learn.

Thanks!
