I like how this song brings genres together. Dylan made a folk song that Hendrix made into a blues song that you made into a nice mix of blues and folk keeping both the blues and the folk versions shown in your cover with the more amplified acoustic in the background. sounds like Hendrix and Dylan made a duet. beautiful!!!
Hendrix never played this song live. He said, "That was just a thing we did." I enjoyed the soloing the most when he wasn't trying to follow Jimi's phrases.
I didn’t want to like you, but this is a fantastic! Great cover, great style, really technical. Haven’t seen it yet, but hoping your channel has some original work along with the covers.
actually so inspiring. You made me learn this song (just the chords haha im a beginner) and also start singing which I never really did. Thanks a lot and beautiful cover keep doing what you love
Hi Derek you have a god given voice and God gave you that talent to play that guitar man run with it give God the glory don't stop keep going sound great
i know because he has only view 100 sub's . when you have alot sub's or so you can make the most stupid video's like piewdiepiew but get millions of views and can piant childly paintings like picasso and herman brood but stil they are very expensive because of the name.
Derek, it is always nice to see younger musicians playing tributes to past greats. I am an old guitar player myself and appreciate fellow guitarists playing the classics. Thank you for sharing your talents.
AMAZING playing! Would've sounded better with a Fender, but GREAT VOCALS. 👉 🥪 👈 We call that a compliment Sandwich Served With Soup Salad or Fries (No Substitutions) Extra Encouragement .85
See that good musicians like you still don’t understand the spirit and the interpretation of the great Jimi who didn’t play like a jukebox but who lived his music many in my region south france my also play very bad Santana ( it’s not about having the fuzz you don’t even have Jimi nor the pedal Dunlop whoua for imitated the great I’m sorry but modern times have really distorted your ears with the Mp3.
Obviously your skills,, both vocally and burnin' up that guitar, are known across the planet, and your name is on every tongue. If not, why not? Generations unborn will demand an explanation.
There's a music festival coming up in our small Texas town next month and I've been invited to play along with a few other guys. I've been playing guitar since 1968 and I've played in every kind of band - so I thought I'd jump in and play a few tunes with the boys. I was practicing playing this song today and I thought I had it down pretty good - until I watched your video. Maybe I'll just stick to paying "Kum ba ya."
una belleza de versión. Cabecera del programa de radio Encuéntame en Las Ondas, en Radio Guiniguada, Radio Pimienta (FM y OnLine) y la Estación Contigo Somos Radio de Zeno.fm (OnLine) desde Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (Islas Canarias. Estado español)
Classic rock show is an outstanding version, and the singer player,is no poser and full of his own ego, Posing constantly.. those riffs at the end have nothing to do with the song.
Great cover. The video is good, too. Prepare the table, watch in the watchtower, eat, drink: arise ye Princes, and prepare the shield. For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth. . . -Book of Isaiah, 21:5
Bro u murdered it,, ur the mad ,, this is amazing 👏 🙌 👌 ur tunes r perfection... keep it up and u will be a star my cousin said..he plays for the Dallas 🤟🤟👌👌
Beautiful tone and great singing. Enjoyed this very much.
Thank you so much!
@@derekyukna4480: You captured the soul of Jimi, better than any covers of this Bob Dylan masterpiece!
@@MrPoodleguy thank you! Really appreciate this 🙏🏻

He has the old school vibe and tone in his music. Definitely in the top 5 covers of Watchtower in my book
Great!!
Shirley Adcock thanks Shirley!
So talented and making a cover................................. MAN!
That was excellent, probably my favourite song of all time and a great cover of it. Great voice and loved your guitar tone. Well done pal!

A fantastic cover of a cover ;)

Excellent cover version
Thank you!
Cool
Wonderful cover man loved that 🙂👏
Really appreciate it thanks!
Better than the original. Perfect voice. The setup is not a positive. I and I think everyone else would rather see a band. Posting you on Reddit now.
Greatly appreciate the feedback! Thank you!
Speaking of a band-I have a big announcement I will be making on my channel soon!
Props for singing and playing, that's the only way to cover Jimi.
I tried! Haha. Thank you for the kind words 🙏🏻
SUPER tone! Guitar? Amp?
Yes. One of each.
hmmm a couple of hot sing along girls would have helped that empty room...A LOT !!
Great tune..thnaks !!
Hendrix is pleased youngman. 👍
Thank you so much!
Hi Derek you have a god given voice and God gave you that talent to play that guitar man run with it give God the glory don't stop keep going sound great
Struggling to see why this isn't more popular
Thank you so much!
Brilliant version....jimi would love this,
because he overdoes it with the screaming guitar sounds
Your not kidding awesome

Very talented, I don't think he can play and sing though.
Also, the camera man, you can see him in the mirror lol
DAVE MASON HAS THE BEST VERSION BUT THIS IS RIGHT UP THERE !!! FANTASTIC😀😀😀
Master Class you gave Derek ... We are not worthy!😉🤟🏼
I want looper pedal
Thank you for a very well-done cover of a great song. 😎💙💛💙💛
Thank YOU for the kind words!
Man, that's so cool
🤘🏻 thanks! glad you enjoyed!
Wow Derek! Just WOW. This is incredible. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Thank you so much!
There are a few versions I favorite. The original by Dylan, the one by Jimi, the one by John Mayer and your version. Absolutely beautiful. Well done.
I appreciate this so much! Thank you for the kind words
Great job! i just wonder what Jimi would have done with this technology?
One of the best covers i have ever heard! Great playing and singing !
Thanks so much!
Amazingly talented
Jim Martin thank you so much!
That vibrato… soul is in the fingers
From a 79 y.o this is brilliant!
Derek, great! My friends son, Matt sent me here. Glad he did.
MrJoebiz24 thank you so much!

This has to be one of the greatest versions ever done of this song! Well done Derek, you're amazingly talented. Thanks for this, it is simply amazing!
Greatly appreciate all of this! Thank you so much
I concur with you
Agree this is a great cover, but you should check out The Classic Rock Show version. Howie G absolutely kills it.
Have listened to covers of Watchtower for over 50 years. This cover is exceptional. Definitely on my play list. Great talent.
Beat sounds nice, but your soloing doesn't flow smoothly, too choppy - sounds nervous/unconfident.
Great play.
Teunom Royal Thank you!
Awesome cover Dude , I'm using this vid to get my own game down ., thanks !!!
bravo... eine interessante INTERPRETATION von JIMI HENDRIX.... er würde sich freuen.
I'm here again listening to this cover and I haven't heard any as good. There's something about your style that brings out the Hendrix ambience.
Wow, that was something!
Jimi would be proud
Really appreciate this-thank you!
Hi Derek, please give us your version without this playback shit :-)
Amazing

Cooles Cover i have seen so far of this song
Really means a lot....thank you!
great singer and more great player !!Respect!!you are great!!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it
Very cool, if only the camera oerson would stop continually moving.
dude ...buy a gibson will ya !!!!......get rid of that 200.00 beater
I wish these guys would get rid of the looper.
It's a tired gimmick.
This discredits the whole entire original song, is this what music is really turning into?
Very good
one of the best covers i have ever heard. excellent work
Big thanks! Really appreciate it
🙏
This is awesome I started to work on this im finding so many different keys wut key are u playing?
Thanks! C minor
He's got the vibrato down. Nice singing voice too.
Thank you!

That’s awesome! Thank you for the kind words!
SUPER DOOPER HAPPY GREAT
MR HENDRIX ❤️ LOVER.
Por que no sigues subiendo videos amigo
Classic rock show is an outstanding version, and the singer player,is no poser and full of his own ego, Posing constantly.. those riffs at the end have nothing to do with the song.
Do you have any songs that you’ve posted? I’d like to see them to see how it’s suppose to be done.
My favorite cover of this song. Love it!
Thank you!
Excellent cover of one of The Best Classics Ever!! Great job Derek- Thoroughly enjoyed it
Really appreciate that! Thank you
Great cover. The video is good, too.

What kind of amp are u using ?
Great reverb naturally obtain by the size of the room...keep it up!!
Greetings from Québec !
It’s a fishman loudbox. Setup is super basic but the amp is great! Greetings and thanks!
Good job
Thanks!
One of the nicest covers I've heard of this, love the tone mate
Thank you so much!
Apparently thats a recording in the background of the acoustic ???
It’s done with a loop pedal. Everything was done live in one take with my guitar.
Bastion rose, this guy is not even close!
Really nice!
But, drop that first few seconds...it steals your opening impact.
Thank you! I appreciate the constructive criticism
Very sweet . Keep it up !
I'm in!
Compliments. Very very very very good
So amazing... Good job. 🙏
Thanks so much!
Made my spirit sway and my heart felt the light, "and the wind began to howllllllll !"
