Back in the 90s. Too bad we didn’t have cellphone video-cams back then.
Two nights in a row in Berkeley.
Dylan came out on stage, alone, cracked a grin, and then just did it.
Since then he’s done various electric versions of Watchtower with full band, and even a jam with Springsteen.
Those are similar, incorporating a few Hendrix-esque licks—and many of those are on youtube—but not the same by a long shot.
What I saw live was Dylan doing a perfect cover of the Hendrix version.
The audience went berserk.

Good for Bob. As a guitarist myself, I can tell you that it took him years of dedicated work to reach that level of proficiency.
That sounds great-I wish it been recorded in a video so we all could see it...
