"Did Boggs confess?"
"No. No, it was five hours of Boggs’ channeling. After three hours I asked him to summon up the soul of Jimi Hendrix and requested 'All Along the Watchtower.' You know, guy’s been dead twenty years, but he still hasn’t lost his edge."
-- Special Agents Dana Scully and Fox Mulder, The X-Files: "Beyond the Sea"
