Hendrix's take on a song originally penned and recorded by Bob Dylan for 1967's John Wesley Harding showed up less than a year later and quickly become the de facto version – even for Dylan. "It overwhelmed me, really," Dylan said of Hendrix's cover, which added a haunting sense of urgency to what was once a bare-bones, folky jam. Dylan later added: "Ever since he died I've been doing it [his] way. Strange how when I sing it, I always feel it's a tribute to him in some kind of way."
