Hendrix is kicking ass in this one .

I love the studio recording of this with the heavy reverb echo & chorus that is on his guitar & his voice.

His studio version (IMHO) cannot be touched by anyone that I have ever heard Live or in a Studio.GWB

I with NostrAdamas on this one My Fav. is Michael Hedges and he spells it Michael(I used to get it wrong myself) but Im sure NostrA. knows that and it was just a typo.
I saw him do it live. WOW made me put up my guitar for a week and considered placing a for sale ad. There are two versions on utube I like the faster tempo one. Man I wish he was still alive even though I dont think he ever played an "O"

They shoot up an Automatic teller machine, took the money for the laundry and drove away clean.

People go on about 'The Dylan Version', 'the Hendrix version', and how Bob now plays the Hendrix version.

What's the difference? In his 'original' version )on John Wesley Harding ?) Bob played it solo on an acoustic, both have done it with a band on an electric. Other than that it's the same lyrics, same melody, same chord progression (Am-F-G, Em-C-D etc.)
