Jimi is the guitar god. He's just beyond great You'll love, "Machine Gun."
"Machine gun, tearing my body all apart".
I view that as one the finest pieces of guitar ever...👍
Especially the live version from New Years Eve at the Fillmore!
Anything from the Band of Gypsies is just freaking amazing.
Jimmy plays to sloppy , Stevie Ray Vaughan is the G.O.A.T the guitar God !!! 🤘🔥🎸🇺🇸💯...
This man was so far ahead of his time. It makes you think what he might've accomplished had his life not been cut tragically short. Watching him makes me nostalgic for a time that I never even experienced.
Sexy A F ❤
I was there for the whole experience and it was great.
Sorry you never experienced it. Enjoy now!
Can you imagine how we felt hearing this in the 60’s?
Jimi’s Are You Experienced album is a classic loaded with blues, funk and Jimi’s unique cosmic sounds. Purple Haze- studio version- was the first Jimi song I ever heard. I really thought he was a funky space alien- the sounds were so new.
WOOSTOCK, IM SURE THE MAJORITY OF THE PPL ARE STONED.
Thankfully I have it on vinyl from my childhood. It's hard to find the complete album even on TH-cam
Imagine being a square parent in the 60s and hearing this otherworldly sound!
in college in '72, and we listened to Hendrix right after taking 2 hits of LSD- we had a (as psychologists call it) "significant emotional experience" in a good way
So glad my parents weren't squares. @@maskedman1337
Remember, this was back in '69......we didn't have 50 years of guitar Gods as reference. Jimmi was the first to really shred like this.
1970...but you are right, Jimi broke through in a huge way, so innovative and different!
Hey Polo ~ The reason why Jimi was so exceptional and so very different from other great guitarists, was that he played freely. What I mean is, he had no boundaries when playing. Whatever flowed through him came out from his guitar. He is the freest guitar player ever. Utterly captivating and mesmerizing.
There’s that but also Jimi played lead and rhythm guitar *at the same time*. Everyone talks about his lead guitar but his rhythm work is off the charts too.
Totally agree. Jimmy Page plays freely, too. I thinks that's why we love them!
I love that description
That is because, he had totally mastered that Strat, and therefor was so relaxed and exploratory on that guitar!
The blotter acid under his headband didn't hurt either.
Both MUST HEAR Classics,, Jimi Hendrix
"The Wind Cries Mary" & "Crosstown Traffic"
R.I.P. Jimi...Thanks For ALL You Gave Us
...Gone But Definitely Not Forgotten. 🙏❤️
Wind cries Mary
Wind Cries Mary! 1000%
_Burning of the Midnight Lamp_ _Spanish Castle Magic_ _Little Wing_ _Angel_
Two of my favorite Hendrix compositions!!
@@kevinmcconnell3641 Same here.
The coolest performance of a piece of music you'll ever see is Jimi at Woodstock playing the Star-spangled Banner. Literally!
Notice too that he is the rhythm and the lead. He dances back and forth between the two effortlessly. And his band was always excellent because he drew great players to him like a magnet, and just naturally took the lead even among experienced players without saying a word. The man had presence.
We,....citizens of Earth,..are blessed to have had this supremely rare talent enter our lives. Forever Thanks!!
Blessed we are indeed!!
Haha, well said. Really well said
Hammered leaving a nightclub one night in SF 30 yearsago. Me and this girl came up on a homeless.dude with a guitar. She asked if he knew "Wind Whispered Mary". He didn't even answer and went right into it. We were mesmerized for 10 minutes with so much emotion. Going from dancing all night to that was just unexplainable.So memorable.
Yes, we tipped him lol!
If a dude was in San Fran, homeless or not he knew how to play jimi. It's becomes a part of the DNA of all San Franciscans, in the maternity ward.
He knew the song even though you didn't know the title, good on him.
Mitch Mitchel one of the greatest drummers to come from the UK 🇬🇧🥁👌
That one day Band: yes one day! The Dirty Mac: with drummer Mitch Mitchell (from Hendrix’s band), John Lennon, Keith Richards and Eric Clapton. Singing Lennon’s Yer Blues. 1968. Go watch the TH-cam video. It begins with John Lennon and Mick Jagger joking around for a few minutes. The band assembled for a one-off performance on the Rolling Stones' TV special titled The Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus. But it never aired then. Also performing was Jethro Tull and The Who! Watch the entire thing!!
A must watch!!!
One of the greatest ever.
This is the man who started it all. From Woodstock to The London scene in the 60's hanging with the likes of Clapton, Townsend, McCartney guys like these. He is and always be the GOAT. RIP
That dance was not exclusively a white dance but a hippie dance. LSD affects us all the same my friend lol
He frequently brings up r a c e. We old schoolers could give a f
Libs.... whatchagonnado?
@@JoeandAngieRight there is no color in music. It's the purest art. Aretha or Janis, George Clinton or Frank Zappa are all the same beauty.
@@MetalPaganthey're all different beauty.
Band of Gypsys is a live album by Jimi Hendrix and the first without his original group, the Jimi Hendrix Experience. It was recorded on January 1, 1970, at the Fillmore East in New York City with Billy Cox on bass and Buddy Miles on drums, frequently referred to as the Band of Gypsys. Tracks 1,2 and 3 are a must listen. You will not be disappointed.
Agree...esp Tracks 1&2
👍👍👍👍👍
He could make a guitar do things no one had ever heard before! Just amazing! Also he played a right handed guitar strung upside down !
Indoor concert with heat from stage lights in the 80's not to mention a much more critical crowd who paid good money for SRV versus a hippie crowd going to a free outdoor concert in Hawaii with the wind blowing. Both guitarist were masters of their art. SRV using the heaviest strings that took tremendous strength for a concert length event! Much respect for both. Different times!
Agreed. And no disrespect because I recognize the greatness of both, but SRV does sound better - to me.
Jimi was in another stratosphere....The Best: GOAT!
His solos were so direct and soulful nothing can surpass it. Distorted Metal or Punk whatever
People rooted for Jimi they loved him.
Biggest thing is you can hear plenty of regular guys playing like that now, no one was playing like that before him, which was something approaching 60 years ago at this point. So the better part of a century which is crazy to think about.
@@MattMonk The live solo in Machine Gun w/ Band of Gypsies when he kicks in whatever pedal that is pretty much blows everything else away IMO.
With the sole exception of Jeff Beck.
@@jamesscura7122 Jeff Beck was friends with Hendrix, and jammed with him on a couple of occasions. Jimi advised him to continue forging his own unique style--which he did!...and he went further than Hendrix, by doing us the favor of living to the age of 75, leaving us with much more of his own brand of music.
Also Red House. Another genius guitarist. Pioneer!
Oh yeah👍❤️👍
Fun Fact: Jimi was a Member of the 101st Airborne, before becoming a rockstar.
My god this was the King loved loved him. All his albums. So spiritual. I’m 73.
👍❤️👍❤️👍❤️👍❤️👍❤️
16 ,17 yr old listening to Hendrix and watching not only his playing but how he handled the guitar i would say his guitar was not and instrument but another body part of his ...an extension....
The crowd: high or unsure of what they're hearing - both 😉
♥ Jimi Hendrix!
Notice, that they were a bunch of basically spoiled, rich White kids...nary a minority person in that crowd. That was Hawaii, back then!
Jimi played near the end of Woodstock which was a 3 day event. People were exhausted by then otherwise there would have been more crowd reaction.
Black folks could have been there too if they chose to be.
*I love the grounded reality of this channel!!!*
Retirement took a toll on my finances, but with my involvement in the digital market, $27,000 weekly returns has been life changing. AWESOME GOD❤️
Only God knows how much grateful i am. After so much struggles I now own a new house and my family is happy once again everything is finally falling into place!!
Wow that's huge, how do you make that much monthly?
I'm 37 and have been looking for ways to be successful, please how??
Thanks to my co-worker (Alex) who suggested Ms Maria Angelina Alexander.
She's a licensed broker in the states 🇺🇸
It's "JIMI" Hendrix btw
He wasn't just "The best guitar player", he was an innovator. He did things with an electric guitar no one thought were possible.
No one experimented with the electrical engineering of the guitar like he did.
Yes, thank you!!
Those were the best days baby!!!
Jimi Hendrix is in the house!!!
Left-handed genius!!!
There will never be another one like Jimi Hendrix!! Gone way too soon, but never forgotten!! Great reaction to an awesome legend. Peace!!
I'm 67 and I saw Jimi in concert in San Diego.
69 years here. Saw him in Minneapolis. Unforgettable.
77 here...saw Jimi in San Diego, 1970.
My son is your age and probably a little older. I introduced him to Jimmy Hendrix when he was 16 years old. He would go to sleep listening to radio channels that would play music like Jimmy. I'm just an old white chick from East Cleveland Ohio. Love your videos.
Voodoo Chile live in the studio with Winwood and Cassidy and Mitchell is insane.
I was friends with the guy who MC''d this concert. I asked him once, what was the coolest thing that happened on your job as DJ? He told me about the Hendrix concert in Maui. He worked 5 minutes a day and had a 5 day paid vacation. He was considerably older than I was.
The most famous, Iconic, legendary, poet, composer and musical innovator of all Rock time. (IMO, Lol)
I saw Jimi Hendrix perform this in concert in 1968
I saw him in 70 twice!!!
Your comment that Jimi made his playing look effortless is close, but I think instinctive is a valid collateral description. The GOAT, without a doubt.
Yes - he also plays the guitar upside down. You really owe it to yourself to watch the video of him and his basically avant-garde performance art rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner from the Woodstock concert. It is just absolutely incredible. The sub text of some of the sounds he’s making and how they are evocative of Bombs going off, etc. is pretty amazing.
The spatial awareness Jimmy used with his amp, to fade in and out with the feedback just as if an extra affect pedal is so perfect. The way he uses this technique during his Star-Spangled Banner performance is groundbreaking.
When you think of how people played the guitar before him... That guy just reinvented the guitar!
This is actually Voodoo Child (slight return). Voodoo Child is on the Electric Ladyland album as well. It’s about 12 minutes of incredible blues in studio with open mics. Mitch Mitchell’s drumming on full display. Give it a thought.
One of the reason's why Jimi sounded so effortless is that he slept with his guitar under his pillow since he was a teen. Hisself and his guitar was one.
I agree Jimi Hendrix Experience was his first and best. For pure grace, Little Wing will take you there.
The unmistakable sound of Celestion speaker cones being shredded in three Marshall stacks. It was so loud and oh so good.
I saw Jimi in concert 1968 Detroit Cobo Arena. Can you imagine we were sitting in chairs?
He was absolutely amazing!! ☮️🎶🌄
Jimi sure was smooth on that guitar. Did you notice that he was a left-handed guitarist playing a right-hand guitar upside-down? The drummer, Mitch Mitchell, was fabulous and apparently a great jazz drummer as well as a rock drummer. And the bass player was doing a great job on this song. And it was live and a three piece group getting a great sound and on a very windy day. Too bad the video just ended. You'll have to go down the Hendrix rabbit hole and listen to his studio albums as well. Electric Ladyland is a double album, I believe.
...so windy that I've read Mitch Mitchell had to re-do his drum track. He watched the video/movie & then did his best to re-create what he played. No easy feat...considering he was not a backbeat drummer.
You believe correctly!
Billy Cox on bass...Hendrix, with either Buddy Miles or Mitch Mitchell, sounded better with Cox. IMO. Miles, a great R&B drummer & singer. Mitchell...just a free-for-all on kit.
Jimi once told a very young Ted Nugent to"just play the colors, man." T-totaler Nugent figureed Jimi was on psychadelics but it turns out he had a condition called Synesthesia; he experienced music as colors and shapes more than as notes and chords
!------ Castles Made of Sand is my all time favorite Jimi Hendrix song. Really showcases his song writing.
If Six was Nine,the entire LP awesome 👍!!
If you haven’t had it I love hey Joe
This is at Woodstock I believe so yes their in outer space high
If I was there, I would have taken the brown acid.
Hawaii, 1970...but yes, LSD, etc was being consumed.
One of the best reactions we've seen to this. The number of multi platinum selling artists from the 70s onwards who owe their entire careers to this man is off the scale. In any genre there's pioneers, and then there's everyone else
Check out Jimi's performance of Machine Gun, from the Band of Gypsies - greatest live performance of all time. Some other guitar players you might like: Yngwie Malmsteen, Jeff Beck, John Petrucci (Dream Theater), Al DiMeola, Steve Vai, & Joe Satriani.
Agree...Machine Gun is definitely my fave live rock guitar performance OAT
Maaaan, if you're gonna watch Hendrix at Woodstock, you gotta see him play the Star Spangled Banner
He made the guitar sing, speak, growl, scream - the lot. His music was mesmerising. And I agree with an earlier comment, his Star Spangled Banner is special.
Yes, I remember he ended with that when I saw him. At the first couple of bars, people were mesmerized. But JImi yelled, "Hey, don't you recognize that? Stand up!" And we did!
Jimi slept with his guitar! (double entendre ) - four released albums and its all gold!
I never did drugs and got high off hearing Hendrix. I love guitar and Jimi could play it like no other.
I think the crowd is just awestruck. They can't believe what they're witnessing, unless you've seen him before.
Love your show because you take it so serious and don't clown around.You should look at Les Dudek contributions and bio. Deeper shades of blues.
I bet you there was a lot of acid and mescaline floatin' around in that concert crowd. That's back in the day ❤ Love your show ❤
“ don’t take the brown acid. The brown acid is bad.” Wavy Gravy.
@@dtw63 😆🔥😆
@@user-fp2jf2uc3c That was at Woodstock. 😂
Watch Jimi at the Monterrey Pop Festive 1967 play Hey Joe. It's all of Jimi in one live preformance. Also, you may not have noticed that Jimi is left handed, but he played the guitar upside down! Check otut the tuning keys at the top of the guitar; they're underneath not on top. Amazing!!!
Get ready to enter the Dome of incredibility ... with Jimi doing things most could not even imagine in their craziest minds.
one of the original building blocks of things to come. tons of artists started with his influence and it just kept growing! and yes they were on at least shrooms!
The guy was a freak for his time, he came up with the thumb wrapped over the top of the neck so he could free up his other fingers to hit notes no-one else had! I was 18 years old in 1980 before I really discovered his stuff and pretty much spent a year behind headphones listening to his captivating music. Saying that I was a huge Stevie Ray Vaughan fan and got to see him play live!
Bless him forever. He was the best
Jimi was our canopy over our starlit sky He d let us know when we could spread our wings
I’m 74 and saw jimi at temple stadium in Philly…I had ringing in my ears for a couple days afterwards…lol
Your astute revelation about Jimi's playing is refreshingly beautiful ! Jimi is GOD !
Jimi’s debut performance in the U.S. was the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967. He went to England and the band came together so Pete Townsend of The Who has heard Jimi. That’s why Pete refused to go onstage *after* Hendrix. The crowd had no idea what was coming but Townsend did. Jimi’s version of “Like A Rolling Stone” from that show would be a good performance to review.
For a deep dive, I recommend Pali Gap. It demonstrates how far Jimi evolved over just 3 years. The structure is more like a Bach fugue than rock n’ roll or blues. Then there’s Castles Made of Sand where Hendrix recorded one lead line backwards then reversed the tape to get what you hear on the record. Jimi’s musical imagination was unlike anyone else I can think of (except maybe Bach).
My favorite tune by Jimi -- "Castles Made of Sand" 😊
You said "that guy is defiantly high". There wasn't anyone in that audience who wasn't high.
He is the greratest ever, and nobody will ever convince me otherwise. Plays his guitar upside-down and left-handed, because as a 9-year-old kid growing up in Seattle, his daddy got him a cheap Sears and Roebuck bargain Basement $12 right-handed guitar to learn on. Young Jimi simply flipped the guitar and taught himself to play all of the chords, Backwards and upside-down. Amazing. It's amazing enough to just be able to play a little bit that way, but to overcome that sort of handicap, and then be the greatest to have ever played? That's crazy. Jimi is to Rock music, what Bruce Lee was to Kung-Fu and Martial Arts. Please react to his video at the Philmore East playing "Machine Gun." It's his most epic (I hate that term) performance.
Wrong info, but close enough. Jimi played first on a beat-up old six-string, at age 12...at 15, he got his first electric...a Kay model-very cheap, but effective.
I feel as though he was a musical genius. And why do these greats leave us so early in life. He passed away at 28. That always blows my mind.
He is the smoothest cat around. Check out the rest of that show, it's good stuff.
I dig Jimi's playing, and overall message. Inspired by the tides of the Universe focused through a strat and cranked Marshall amp. What a legend.
My wife is younger & she always asks "...why do you guys just sit there at concerts"? C'mon...especially in that time, this was 100% a spectacle that no one had really seen before. One's undivided attention was required.
It was a mindfreak. I assume if psychedelics were in the equation, it was even more so. 😊
All these decades later & Hendrix is still a kick in the 'nads.
This concert was arranged for the movie/documentary Rainbow Bridge. The audience were asked to seat themselves according to their astrological signs in order to tap into some sort of cosmic energy (I kid you not). A strong wind blowing was why the microphone was wrapped up to that degree.
Hendrix is deservedly an icon. David Gilmore's solo on Comfortably Numb with Pink Floyd live at Pulse is considered one of the greatest solos ever.
Started getting into music around '72-'73. I was 12 or 13. Missed Jimi by a couple of years. Man, that close!😑🫤 Jimi had an "INTENSITY" that nobody can match. I saw SRV in '84 and '85 and heard Stevie's version. It was great but nothing like your hearing Jimi play hear.
Voodoo Chile (slight return) recorded version , is pretty much perfect. Please listen to that version , it showcases his extraordinary skills brilliantly.
He's making his Guitar
Sound like a Conga In
The intro because he knew In Voodoo the Drums call in the SPIRITS
He studied cosmology And was very much into
Metaphysical things.
Jimi is the man!
Jimmy is the GOAT!!!
So glad you're watching Jimi doe this song. SO sad you chose this version. This one is "Jimi Harsh". The Woodstock version is Jimi Beautiful. Please watch it; you won't regret it.
Roy Buchanon is another great guitarist from the seventies. He was Jeff Becks favorite guitarist. "Can I change My Mind" is a really good one. "I'm a Ram" is another.
Hendrix, Page, Beck, Stevie Ray, Terry Kath, Gilmore, Van Halen, and many others are favorites!
@GracieUnderFire He is considered too derivative of Hendrix...but I like his style anyway!
You should watch the entire Woodstock performance it will blow your mind. Jimi was from another planet. Plus to even attempt this tune live in a field of mud resembling a war zone with crappy 60s equipment is truly incredible!
Voodoo Chile (slight return) was the first E.P. I bought it after hearing Jimi, the B Side was all along the Watchtower and Hey Joe... and still he is my favourite musician ever; well along with Led Zeppelin and Jethro Tull; and Yes... etc.
The foam rubber on the mics, were there to protect against the substantial wind that was blowing across the side of the volcano the stage was on, in Hawaii! BTW...the drummer, Mitch Mitchell, re-recorded his drums for this release, after Jimi died...the wind had screwed up the sound of his drums. Mitchell was excellent, and his inspiration was jazz drummer Elvin Jones.
Mitch Mitchell was Jimi's drummer, and you're right he's great. No words for Jimi. What can you say?
As a drummer myself, Mitch Mitchell (Hendrix's drummer), and Ian Paice from Deep Purple were two of my main influences.
I saw Jimi a couple of times at Festivals, but to be at that event with so few people (relatively) & be so close musta been magic.
Remember As Great As Mitch Was On Drums,( Trained Jazz Percussionist): The "Experience" Was A Cobbled Together , Collaboration Engineered By Chas Chandler( Animal,s Basist,I Think) Who Discovered Jimi Scufflin', Around The Greenwich Village Scene, Around '65- To Mid -1966)Jimi,s "REAL" , Flight Live Performance- wise Was The "Band Of Gypsies" With Billy COX,On Bass( former Army Buddy '61-62) And Buddy MILES ON DRUMS!! PS. Trivia Time: Not Only Was Jimi A Left-handed( UpsideDown) Guitar Player ,Who StartedAs A Bass Player, But,Jimi Is 1/8 Cherokee Native American, But,1/8 IRISH!🤫! (HIS MOTHER WAS 1/4 ,EACH!!) 😆🫠😎🤘🎸🎶🎵🎶( FORMER BASS PLAYER IN ISLEY BROTHERS TOURING BAND '64Ish?) Did LSD Frequently In The Early Days,( Owlsley, 4Way Blotter, Was The Best!) Etc, etc.. 😁✌️
Jimi Hendrix was the walking, talking definition of cool.
That stuff on the mic is a primitive wind shield- you can see the banners being blown all over.
One of my favorite Hendrix songs is crosstown traffic and of course foxy lady
Thanks so much for experiencing (check out his Are You Experienced album) Jimi Hendrix. I grew up in the 70s and I remember my hippie brother (yep he was at Woodstock) listening to Jimi Hendrix. Jimi was an evolution in guitar music (like Chuck Berry before him (showmanship) and SRV following). He helped me out through those horrible puberty years. And as an old service member, I had nothing but respect for him. His country called him and he answered the call (Screaming Eagles if not mistaken). Anyways I really appreciate watching a younger generation enjoying the music I grew up with
Jimi only answered the call, because he was told by a judge to either join the Service, or go to jail for riding in a stolen car!..Jimi chose the 101st Airborne, only because he thought parachuting was cool...and after serving 13 months of a three year obligation, Hendrix was thrown out of the Army, being deemed "unsuitable/unable" to properly serve...and this is just what Jimi wanted!...He purposely acted poorly, in order to become a civilian again, and pursue his compulsion to be a musician. It was a good thing for all of us, that he did just that!
My son used to have some issues when he was a few months old, played some Jimi and he was good lol. Calmed down straight away! :)
If you have time try .75 speed (for your playback settings). You might be able to keep up.🎸🧐
Iconic recording..thanks.
Stevie bought the foot pedal from Jimmi's mom.
I put Roy Clark up there with all these guys, he could play any string instrument you handed him; love Steve Vai as well. A lot of great guitarists out there, I'm a College trained Jazz drummer, love hearing great talent. 🎉🎉❤❤
Thank you it is a band. Noel Redding, and Mitch Mitchell
Great song. Jane's Addiction
Crosstown Traffic by Jimi ⭐️
Many might give their GOAT status to the era they grew up in, 60s & 70s Jimi or Jimmy Page, 80s SRV, Eddie Van Halen but personally I had two growing up in the 80s..Angus Young and Prince were my favorites
The album version is just epic. The stereo panning used throughout the track is next level. Definitely headphone music
