the-theme-is
A group music blog of weekly themes. Each week, the moderator will pick a new theme and the members will post songs that fit, especially rare gems others may have not heard before.
We will call attention to forgotten gems and songs that have stood the test of time!
(We wish to stand out from the other blogs out there with this collection of rarities.)

The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Like a Rolling Stone (Live at Monterey 1967)
********************************************************
I’m going all out with this contentious claim, but I honestly think the Hendrix rendition at Monterey here equals (or exceeds?) the Dylan original, in its soul, daring nature (Dylan’s version wasn’t more than a couple of years old, and for Hendrix to adopt it WAS daring), and performance. What more can one ask for?
The Grammy-recognized liner notes in the Monterey Pop Festiveal box set issued on Rhino Records are worth the purchase of the box, btw, imo!
The Theme Is … Covers That Equal or Better the Original
