I don’t care what anyone says. The guy has an AMAZING voice and even live it sounds like he’s on the radio in 99. What a tribute to one of the greatest musicians. The sweat it saying it’s not cold
Every time I listen to Dave Matthews' version of 'All Along the Watchtower,' I feel an electric surge of energy and passion. The way he brings a fresh, intense vibe to this classic song is incredible. It's like he breathes new life into the lyrics, making them resonate with urgency and raw emotion. The powerful instrumentals and his dynamic voice create an atmosphere that's both hypnotic and invigorating. This isn't just a cover-it's a whole new experience that reminds us of the timeless power of music to stir the soul and awaken the spirit!
Everytime i watch this video i notice new little things. 1. Daves little dance he does with his feet while playing, fabtastic. And .2. At like 6:50ish he watches things get thrown on the stage, he follows it with his eyes and does a big smile while singing 😂❤
I’ve been going to Dave since I was 13 years old. Been to over 40 concerts. I’m 24 now. If the opportunity came to time travel. You’d see me popping out the sky and making my way to front row
A powerful cover of an American Classic written and performed by Bob Dylan starting in 1967. Later, immortalized by Jimi Hendrix Experience on ElectricLady Land in 1968 and covered by everyone one else since. This is one where the words matter!
I’d like to add one of my dads ex girlfriends from way back loved Dave Mathew’s and I didn’t. I heard this version one time because “I had to hear it” and I was honestly blown away. His version of this song and his voice he can just wail and I’ve been a fan of Dave since and that was around this time I can’t remember precisely but hearing this now gives me the chills insta goosebumps. Rest In Peace Jimmy Hendrix
Ricky horry i know u will never read this but the wind in my sails are from the early 2000s us playing music brother the drugs are sucking ur soul away and ppl love you .ur so talented such a bright light burning this world needs u more than ever .
Nothing can ever top how perfectly high on acid Dave matthews had to be to be able to pull this off so perfectly. Go watch other live performances . He cant re create it!
I really like this version. I love the drummer - little smile on his face, chewing gum, great guns - looks like he could kick ass and take names and the violinist is over the top

Amo intensamente la pasión de esta banda. La sigo desde hace muchisiimos años y nunca dejan de parecerme geniales. Carter Beauford el batero debe ser primo hermano de Mathew St. Patrick 😂
@@Fatty_Margo that's a good version too but my vote still with the Red Rocks. There was just something so perfect about that night. Everything, right on beat, perfect speed, pitch, timing, everything, like it came out of some kind of mystical place. Maybe it's just being in the Red Rocks themselves, like they have their own energy or something that brought it to a new level. Whatever it was it's perfect
Yesssssss, Goddammit!! No reason to get excited... Outside in the cold distance. Ripped Black guys playing the violin. My head exploded a damn while ago 😍😍😍
Gotta help me plz I once downloaded a version of this on myspace, back when that was a thing, and it has the best violen solo I have ever heard in it. My eternal gratitude for anyone one who can tell me which one it was. It has no electric guitar or base solo.
I don’t care what anyone says. The guy has an AMAZING voice and even live it sounds like he’s on the radio in 99. What a tribute to one of the greatest musicians. The sweat it saying it’s not cold
Cold sweat brother it was amazing
I think it was 98 degrees with not one cloud that day and it was beaming right on the stage. The next day, the fans burned down the venue.
Dave Mathews Band all day!!!
This guy changed my life through music 25 years ago
Legends Chill With Legends🐐🐐
1999 - the greatest year of all time! DMB was and still is the shiz!
Every time I listen to Dave Matthews' version of 'All Along the Watchtower,' I feel an electric surge of energy and passion.

I like his “I came to blow your face off performance” mixed with his “I just got out of bed and the AC aint working” attire. Unbelievably good sound.
that gibson chet atkins has alot to do with the overall sound of the 95’- 99’ era
I like when he looks down at this guitar like I look down when I see a spider crawl past my feet
Not a DMB fan, but always loved this performance.
Probably one of the best remakes I’ve ever heard.
I was about 100’ from stage left…fn amazing performance! After this I didn’t need to see anything else!
Love this version of along the watchtower
booo
I was there ❤❤❤
Summers 99
24 years later, hair still raises on my arms as much as when I was standing there that day
Still get the goosebumps from this song
I am 63 and yes it is haunting.
Which one
Everytime i watch this video i notice new little things. 1. Daves little dance he does with his feet while playing, fabtastic.
And .2. At like 6:50ish he watches things get thrown on the stage, he follows it with his eyes and does a big smile while singing 😂❤
That is one hell of way too make it your own damn this is cool
Music (and a scotch with 2 cubes) after a bad day at work makes life all good.
and a cigarrete
Paul T doesn’t get any better
A couple of lines & freeze dry shrooms~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is it! Thanks, bro!
I like mine neat or iceberg ice. A joy of living in the north. 20,000 ice. The purest water.
I’ve been going to Dave since I was 13 years old. Been to over 40 concerts. I’m 24 now. If the opportunity came to time travel. You’d see me popping out the sky and making my way to front row
That bass - such a beautiful instrument!
Holy crap! Masterful. Didn't expect this level of performance on this song from DM.
The 🎻 and saxophone addition to this song is 🔥
Josh Williams believe the guy died years ago in a freak motorcycle accident believe it or not
@@brandonpolk6657 bummer deal if that's true
Sadly, Leroi did die, in an ATV accident... Man had mad skills on the sax.
Brandon Polk yeah he got killed on a quad. Sucks
❤Time you don't want back!
❤ I was standing right there!
The end of a beautiful decade
Dynamic, riveting full force of energy, Mathew' s singing unique, the band totally rock the scene.
It's daylight, several bands after them. They are killing it.
Tom Hanks rocked the shit out of this song. Hendrix would be proud. Get lit.
I am proud too... you know.
This is not an Hendrix's original...
Rakesh I like buk Lou better than you
Looks like the guy playing the agent in Entourage (Jeremy Piven).
Hendrix was and still is, way overrated! Nothing but a junkie making way too many off notes ;)
Man!@!! I absolutely love love this song,don't understand why it moves me so omg!@!!!
Music is strange my friend the language of beauty sadness happiness and everything in between
Research the history of this Bob Dylan song. Maybe it will help with the understanding
I love the violon solo
That is absolutely shit hot !!!! original, fresh and vibrant, what a great interpretation of a great song !!!!
A powerful cover of an American Classic written and performed by Bob Dylan starting in 1967.
Later, immortalized by Jimi Hendrix Experience on ElectricLady Land in 1968
and covered by everyone one else since. This is one where the words matter!
Mark Crume the words
Dave Mason cover rocks too.
Dave Matthews was the Metallica of what he did...there was an energy there that spoke for itself.
Not a huge DMB fan but I really like this version. Wow!
Every time I hear this song, I get the 'ZING!' effect from it. These guys did an AMAZING job covering this song!
impresionante versión así como la de Jimi, memorables, distintas pero ambas maravillosas, gracias! recientemente playing for change también!
Seen them 9 times! Amazing EVERY SINGLE TIME!
Perfect performance
I'm Speechless. They did a great song great. Jimi would/is proud.
So would Bob
I was there. And it was AMAZING
Brilliant!
Seen them for the first time last week. Closed with this song,,, but he threw in some Stairway to Heaven stuff in the middle too. Amazing.
Legends Honoring Legends Is Always Amazing
I could have never thought Dave Matthews & Co. would redefine that classic. No buts, they fucking did. Awesome
Saw them live last night and they closed with this.... Incredible show!
After watching this, Dave Matthews Band gained +1 Favor
BEAUTIFUL
I was there! Thanks for the memories :-)
Damn how old are you when you was there ?
Chills every time I hear this version!
best performance of this song ever!
Brilliant.. this right here is why DMB has been on top of my faves list for over 20 years ❤️
Really like Dave Matthew's arrangement of this!
I’d like to add one of my dads ex girlfriends from way back loved Dave Mathew’s and I didn’t. I heard this version one time because “I had to hear it” and I was honestly blown away.

Rest In Peace Jimmy Hendrix
cant even do the man justice by spelling his name right.
Bob Dylan originally wrote this song
Epic band wish I could have been there he nailed this track
Im sooooo glad i got to see them ...just once is never enough to hear this song live. Omg what an experience.
The voice that launched 1000 ships thx dave. Nice job Tim Reynolds. Nice cover!!!
What a cover...great job guys..how am i just now finding this..wtf...damn
This gave me chills
Ricky horry i know u will never read this but the wind in my sails are from the early 2000s us playing music brother the drugs are sucking ur soul away and ppl love you .ur so talented such a bright light burning this world needs u more than ever .
How is Ricky doing?
This is actually my favorite rendition of this song
Kelly Jones the version off of Listener Supported is even better!
th-cam.com/video/qNCuQXMTYAg/w-d-xo.html
..the one we started with, the one I can't live without...
The bass player hands down is a pure badass!! Hendrix would approve! 1:22 to 1:40 Perfection!
..as soon as I saw him dance, I dunno why, but all I could think was ooh i wouldn't wanna sleep with him
The bassist w/Hendrix was Noel Redding and he would approve.
Nothing can ever top how perfectly high on acid Dave matthews had to be to be able to pull this off so perfectly. Go watch other live performances . He cant re create it!
The bass player runs the show.
I have watched this video so many times. This performance just oozes "In Your Face." Kids, this is what true talent looks like. Take notes.
Really? You call what this is talent? On what planet? Cause it sure as fuck didn’t sound good on this one.
legendary performance
God I wish I was there I was definitely born in the wrong era 😭
Same
I really like this version. I love the drummer - little smile on his face, chewing gum, great guns - looks like he could kick ass and take names and the violinist is over the top
Utterly speechless. This Kids, is what perfection sounds like. Take notes, babies. Epic straight in yo' face!
MIKOL J ...it’s a little naselly
Flat out just BADASS!!!
Best live band!
First DMB song I ever heard, havent looked back, thanks guys!!

This kicks ass!
Amo intensamente la pasión de esta banda. La sigo desde hace muchisiimos años y nunca dejan de parecerme geniales. Carter Beauford el batero debe ser primo hermano de Mathew St. Patrick 😂
My respects, Dave & Band! Jimi would be proud of it. Dylan would give his consent.
i lived this shit, from jail to recovery, lotta bodies left behind, no regrets.
We're Lucky to be Alive.... Happy Thanksgiving!
Damn, that's some jamming!
3:32 look at how many shoes have been thrown at him!!
amazing!
Great musicians!
The best version I've heard Dave do of this song was on the Live at the Red Rocks album. Perfection
th-cam.com/video/qNCuQXMTYAg/w-d-xo.html

So good!
I was born in the wrong year. Bring back music like this
Take a fucking bow. What a performance.
Gotta help me plz I once downloaded a version of this on myspace, back when that was a thing, and it has the best violen solo I have ever heard in it. My eternal gratitude for anyone one who can tell me which one it was. It has no electric guitar or base solo.
Joey Robling I wish I knew. I'd love to hear that version!
RIP Gru Grux King :(
