I can hardly believe how listening to this particular rendition made the hair upon the back of my neck stand up! Do you know how many years that its been since I truly enjoyed hearing this tune performed ? I say no more of this cheap untalented demonstration of just how lacking of talent has become accepted, rather just play this at every sporting function to get the people on a first name basis with REAL talent, so rare these days....three cheers for the red, white and blue.....

I think it's harder to combine voices from such different time periods effectively since there is such a contrast between the technical quality of the recordings.

The Jimmy Hendrix versionof this is the best, and Jose Feliciano's my second favorite.
