All Along The Watchtower

What's the best version of "All Along the Watchtower"? I've gotten into countless arguments over it, but one thing is certain. Niel Young never wins.

Re: All Along The Watchtower

Isn't the way you have described each version a little biased? You didn't have to add in subjective words like 'weak' and 'classic'.

Re: All Along The Watchtower

I voted for the weak Neil Young version, just because I know no one else would.

Re: All Along The Watchtower

Just wondering why the versions from U2 and Dave Matthews Band didn't make the poll?
