I remember hearing this song playing in a wine bar, back in December 2014. Went and asked the bartender, who searched its name from the playlist and wrote it down for me on a blue post-it note.

It was a perfect video, and couple years later, I tried to go back to that video but the owner changed the background music for some reason, everyone in the comment was upset, and the owner said he doesn't know the name of the song either. But this song really left a strong impression on me, especially one time after listening the rocks old theme song know you role, it reminds me of this song, and the rythem of this song start to pop up in my head, I tried to soundhound it, asking eveyone the name of this song by humming, the fact it has no lyrics made it even harder. And tonight, I was watching a instgram clip of this guy sittng on a chair while riding pint one wheel, the background music suddenly sounds so familiar. And here I am.

Hendrix heard a tape of it and recorded his version in early '68 and released it later that year around the same time as Dylan's single. The SAMPLE in this cut (You Wish) is from a soul single from the same year '68 called 'Private Number' by Judy Clay and William Bell. Their song only starts with this little riff and then changes dramatically bearing little resemblance to Watchtower.
