Jimi Hendrix’s cover of Bob Dylan’s ‘All Along The Watchtower’ has been named the best rock cover version of all time by Planet Rock listeners.

The top ten entries in the poll are:

Jimi Hendrix Experience ‘All Along The Watchtower’

Joe Cocker ‘With A Little Help From My Friends’
Guns 'N' Roses ‘Live and Let Die’
Van Halen ‘You Really Got Me’
