My fav Hendrix song is All Along the Watchtower-MrT5 told me soon after we married that he wanted it and the Stones Gimme Shelter played at his funeral-years later, after his untimely death, I told the funeral director we would be doing that-I thought his head was going to explode-I guess he’d figured it would be just another Catholic funeral for a military guy. The guests and family thought it was cool, so we did it...
Condolences for your loss. Your departed hubby had a great ear for excellent music.
A lot of people are unaware that Jimi didn’t write All Along The Watchtower, which is understandable, since he so truly made the song his own. The author, Bob Dylan, once remarked that he liked Jimi’s version better than his own.
