This album is incredible, and is available as a CD in the usual places. The album is rare, as Barbara Keith left the music business just as it was being released and Warner Bros cancelled its promotion, but the album is a winner, full of incredibly written, sung, and performed gems, including this awesome cover of "All Along The Watchtower". I was given this promo copy sometime in the mid-70's.

Many of the songs from this album have been covered by other artists over the years, and she went on to eventually form the Stone Coyotes, and continue playing over the years.

Previously, Barbara Keith played with a little-known group called Kangaroo, and recorded one album with them on MGM, in 1968. See my channel for two great songs featuring her lead vocals.

  • This sounds to me like a cover of Jimi Hendrix cover and I'm saying this as a good thing,.

  • @Sparrowhawk155 No, Jimi Hendrix made a definite version.

  • UNBELIEVEABLY AMAZING. I'm obsessed

  • Barbara Keith is currently in a band called the Stone Coyotes. They are a trio and she sings lead and plays lead guitar. Her Husband plays Bass and her Son plays drums. They have a bunch of CDs out.

  • Yes! Flashback to freshman year in college. Her Barbara's brother David was my roommate when the album came out. We got it lots of airplay on the Tufts radio station and it did get picked up on WBCN in Boston.

  • Thnx alot

  • To me this is the definitive read of Bob Dylan's timeless tune,

  • this is a real find!!!!!! god bless you tube!!!!!
