DYLAN COVERS # 178 Spirit - All Along the Watchtower x 3

RANDY AND THE BOYS


 
SPIRIT - All Along the Watchtower (Studio 1977)

Spirit are probably more famous for their brilliant cover of Like a Rolling Stone (1976). However there is nothing wrong with these three takes of All Along the Watchtower. Two live versions and one studio take.

They originally released the track on their album Future Games (1977) which is the first track featured and pretty dam good it is too.  The next take is from a concert in Holywood Whiskey a Go-Go 1st September 1977.

Finally the last take can be found on the album Spirit - The Last Euro Tour (1991). The album was compiled from shows recorded in Hamburg, London, Vienna, Frankfurt, Nuremberg and Lanz in November of that year.
