I came across this channel the other day looking for covers of "All Along the Watchtower", and I am floored by this guy's guitar playing ability. He also has some good tone going on
I like that the singer has good ears - he is a smart enough musician to be true to the original, and yet still sing it in his own style, and he has the TASTE AND RESTRAINT to not sing any 97 note ascalar cadenza ad nauseum.
That guitar tone right at 0:52 to 0:54 when he lays into those first doublestop bends...
