Hum.
What can I say this time?
That Tjader's version is, well,
one of my LEAST favorite versions?
That Curtis seems to use a wah-wah on the live track here?
That there are some nice funkafied tunes today also?
I dunno, I could mention all those things,
but I'll stick to saying: jus lissen up & enjoy.

Thank you for collecting all these versions of an endlessly fascinating song. As eolake has pointed out in his blog, the Danish post-punk avant gardish rock band Sort Sol (Black Sun) did a very goth version awash in electric guitars in the mid-80s - it just builds and builds and sort of grows on you after a while. Eolake has a link to that version on his blog: http://eolake.blogspot.com/2006/05/ode-to-billy-joe.html. Again thanks!
anonymous, thanks, I found even some more versions, coming soon...
peace, E-mile
