I feel you 100%. Dido what you said. I'll be 70 in August. I remember listening to it a ton and then the very first time I 'saw' it. I was like, what the......was that!!!! Never, ever gets old.
The second break when Jimi hits that note and the feedback kicked in right on cue. Jimi had a handle on feedback like no other guitarist before or since. Unbelievable.
There is a video showing him control the feedback by the place he stands … I thinks it‘s n Machine Gun sound painting a battlefield graveyard in the mist. His technical brilliance and his will and capabilities of expression … unmatched!
Me too! Same age as you, and to my mind 'Voodoo Child (Slight Return) is the greatest piece of guitar mastery ever recorded. I was eleven years old when I first heard it, and I haven't been the same since 😄

He was pretty much the OG, where all of modern music originated. May sound dated now, a little simplistic, but you really cant overstate how influential he was to those musicians growing up in the 50s.
That’s why he’s #1. It ain’t even close, and the World should know it by now In the sixties amongst legends like Page Clapton and Beck Jimi was far and away THE BEST and all the aforementioned have confirmed this. 🤘🏻🤘🏻

My heart goes out to them the same way my heart would if I saw a blind double amputee having a seizure on the sidewalk while they were vomiting uncontrollably and bleeding from their nose. I just feel SO BAD for them. That's the way I feel about anybody whose brain is broken down so badly that they think Prince could even shine the shoes of Jimi Hendrix.
@@PurpleSupernova I find the low quality of Prince's music as recorded to be a hinderance to saying how good he was. I think he used a lot of things that made the recordings generally of low quality. There are some exceptions though.
@@PurpleSupernovaI don’t listen to prince but what I have seen and heard prince is a virtuoso in his own right. He’s mastered multiple instruments and is just as crazy on guitar but in his own way
There's nothing to say about Jimi Hendrix that's not been said. You have to listen to him playing to know just how great he was. 🎉🎉🎉. Nobody knows what he would have accomplished with more years. But ain't nobody topped him yet. His is the vocabulary of modern rock guitar, no matter what genre you listen to. The G.O.A.T period.
I am 60 I remember the first cassette I bought of Jimi Hendrix are you experienced. I played that cassette so much that I wore off the lettering of the cassette it was just blank I wore out a bunch of those cassette and I have been a Jimi fan for years. I was so impressed with his playing I can imagine him finding different sounds he could get from his stratacaster. Kramer is a genius tech. Another reason I liked Jimi he was left handed. And I am left handed If Jimi was alive in2024 alot of the guitarist would be scared to go up against him. 😊
I bet Chuck used to wish he could play it like that! Simply amazing; especially considering the equipment and technology available back in the late 1960s. Thanks for uploading - I liked it and subscribed.
Once a yr. back in Detroit ,a little theater called the Caboret on 8 mile and inkster would play , "Jimi plays Berkley" movie , i never missed it from1975 to 1978...the only way to ever see this back then...special times.
Looking through the comments here, there's always a few who don't get it. I know plenty of musicians who think Jimi is sloppy and overrated. Truth is, its not really that hard to play but the invention, spontaneity and unexpected twists in the solo choruses of this performance are just pure magic. And the sound... so raw and alive. He's Jimi Hendrix and its just totally unique. Musical taste is all subjective but in my humble opinion even after all these years there isn't anyone who's been able to generate that level of excitement. If you can't appreciate it, you're missing out!
Spot on. There are players with a bigger harmonic vocabulary, better chops, but Hendrix has all of what you said - that excitement - combined with such originality. And he has superb compositional skills.

Others like Beck and Townsend toyed with feedback before him but Jimi made feedback his bitch keeping it caged until he wanted to use it either to shock the listener, make a bold statement, create music out of it or imitate the sound of whatever he desired. Almost 60 yrs later Hendrix influence on the electric guitar continues to be enormous and there are 100's of guitar teachers here on YT who give Hendrix lessons, breaking down his unique rhythm playing, lead phrasings . His songs are covered and played right here on YT by many well known artists . If he's "overrated " why is it that so many artist of high caliber and skill fall in line to "copy" and admire Jimi through imitation and influence and continue to do so for what has now become decades. Billy Cox Jimi's bass player said it best-There's only two types of guitarists around today," those who admit being influenced by Jimi Hendrix, and those who try to pretend they aren't.
Well said. Jimi was the first and still the most important electric guitar player. I've been a disciple since I saw Jimi plays Berkeley as a teenager in 73. Formative experience.
Jimi revolutionised the rock scene. Loved him in the sixties, cried in 1970 when he died and I wonder what he'd have gone on to do. And still listen to and love his style. It's been a lifetime of listening. Thanks to the Man From Electric Lady land!
No me da vergüenza de decirlo,la primera vez que escuche esto fue en el 1983... Acabo de escucharlo y todavia se me saltan las lágrimas, no me ha pasado con otro musico,es algo que transmite que va mas haya de la propia musica.tenia 17 años, ahora ,59
I first heard this version, the year it was released,(1971,on the poorly-titled',In The West'album.)I was seventeen, I'm now seventy,and it still makes me feel like l need a rest'!!, after listening to it.
70 years old now. Remember when this (yes vinyl) "album" appeared in the record stores. It was in my hands on a hot second. This tune and the monsterous ability of this guy at 27 yrs blew my mind then and it blows my mind now. He was levels above. What a tragic loss. This tune was taken from the Hendrix video. 'Jimi Plays Berkley" It smokes ... al the way through !!!
Great version of Chuck's song, Jimi plays it like it's his own, I love how he uses the twang bar in the opening theme, which repeats a few times and goes into a solo, what can I say but Jimi was (is) the guitar king,thanks for your to music and playing, you will always be an inspiration to me....Go Jimi, go, go, Jimi B. Goode
Every single time I hear this song played by Dear Ol' Much Missed Mr Jimi Hendrix I wonder why it seems like I am hearing Jimi Hendrix, as a fully fledged Guitar Players Guitarist play for the first time, each and every single time. It's that good a performance and to this very day, and I sincerely hope for eons on, an astonishing really brilliant rendition and as a cover, it's almost like, "Who is this? What's the group called? What is it? Why is it so good? Where can I buy this record? What other songs do they have on release? What type of music is this? Where can I buy a guitar? What type of guitar amplifier can I buy? How do you practice the guitar? How can I play like Mr Hendrix? Is he still playing?", this last question, well, sadly, as many on here will know he died aged 27, and is in 'The 27 Club', up there, still playing in the great gig in the sky. Awww nooooooooooo, well, what must we do to navigate our ways through the27club's dystopian nightmarish story being written out for us? What a loss to music, and to this day, I am of a belief, one of the many beliefs and viewpoints if we can do what we can to save only even one life from that trap, and go on, a bit mad, yet still warm, still alive and kicking, our dreams kept alive and rocking in the free world, then, well ain't it quite a start, a beginning of sorts from such a tragic loss as the genius of Hendrix, that guy was stoked with a hard~earned sheer wondrously brilliance and left us lot, and those in future times and eons, a legacy of astonishing verve, panache and brio, as well, also, as a teeny lesson to prevent burning the candles at every point along their lengths in our youth, in the best days of our lives. Weird, yet, I still kind of grieve for his loss, much as a teenager would if their favourite person passed on, a relative, anyone, Gawd Aaaaaalmighty Lordy Forbid, please no more. I wanna live AND be as inspirational as blues rock musician, and ground breakingly innovative Guitar Player, Mr Hendrix. Stay alive, peoples, stay alive. Don't go messing with no mind affecting dangerous chems, either. You got your health, you got your wealth. Keep on rocking in the free world, peoples.

100 dúvida o melhor de todos,GIGANTE Jimmy Hendrix❤👊🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
O cara
Love it ❤
Johnny Winter ripped this up too.
👍👍
And a bit surprisingly, The Grateful Dead version is pretty good too- from around ‘68
Yeah, this is a good version of it.
I don’t know this.
Yes thank you. I just posted it above..feel the same..was gonna delete it but..nope..both r crazy good!
Sublime version !!!
I first heard this version, the year it was released,(1971,on the poorly-titled',In The West'album.)I was seventeen, I'm now seventy,and it still makes me feel like l need a rest'!!, after listening to it.
F**kin amazing genius on the frets
Best version ever IMO.
If Jimi had left behind just this performance Rolling Stones Magazine was still right putting him at nr1 as best guitar player ever.
Hat uns zu früh verlassen, im Club der 27er. RIP GOAT.
He was epic on stage and off. Go listen to his third album ELL with headphones. After this. 🤗
It get me through high school. I love it!
Me too! My buddy had an 8 track of it and we’d listen to it all the time at parties at his house. Great album.
There's so much great Hendrix that isn't mainstream and easy to find.
You must be kidding me...this is so incredible!
😮 Thank you!
Jimi Hendrix, best guitar player ever!
Greetings from Hamburg Germany
One of the greatest guitar performances ever!!!!
70 years old now. Remember when this (yes vinyl) "album" appeared in the record stores. It was in my hands on a hot second. This tune and the monsterous ability of this guy at 27 yrs blew my mind then and it blows my mind now. He was levels above. What a tragic loss. This tune was taken from the Hendrix video. 'Jimi Plays Berkley" It smokes ... al the way through !!!
Il était génial et sa gentillesse était naturelle ainsi que son talent c'était un ange de la musique
Great version of Chuck's song, Jimi plays it like it's his own, I love how he uses the twang bar in the opening theme, which repeats a few times and goes into a solo, what can I say but Jimi was (is) the guitar king,thanks for your to music and playing, you will always be an inspiration to me....Go Jimi, go, go,
Jimi B. Goode
The best version ever.! Have power and speed!
だってもうそりゃね 永遠不滅の魂の発露なんだもんね
He was so far beyond the times with his style best of the best awsome
Every single time I hear this song played by Dear Ol' Much Missed Mr Jimi Hendrix I wonder why it seems like I am hearing Jimi Hendrix, as a fully fledged Guitar Players Guitarist play for the first time, each and every single time. It's that good a performance and to this very day, and I sincerely hope for eons on, an astonishing really brilliant rendition and as a cover, it's almost like, "Who is this? What's the group called? What is it? Why is it so good? Where can I buy this record? What other songs do they have on release? What type of music is this? Where can I buy a guitar? What type of guitar amplifier can I buy? How do you practice the guitar? How can I play like
Mr Hendrix? Is he still playing?", this last question, well, sadly, as many on here will know he died aged 27, and is in 'The 27 Club', up there, still playing in the great gig in the sky. Awww nooooooooooo, well, what must we do to navigate our ways through the27club's dystopian nightmarish story being written out for us? What a loss to music, and to this day, I am of a belief, one of the many beliefs and viewpoints if we can do what we can to save only even one life from that trap, and go on, a bit mad, yet still warm, still alive and kicking, our dreams kept alive and rocking in the free world, then, well ain't it quite a start, a beginning of sorts from such a tragic loss as the genius of Hendrix, that guy was stoked with a hard~earned sheer wondrously brilliance and left us lot, and those in future times and eons, a legacy of astonishing verve, panache and brio, as well, also, as a teeny lesson to prevent burning the candles at every point along their lengths in our youth, in the best days of our lives. Weird, yet, I still kind of grieve for his loss, much as a teenager would if their favourite person passed on, a relative, anyone, Gawd Aaaaaalmighty Lordy Forbid, please no more. I wanna live AND be as inspirational as blues rock musician, and ground breakingly innovative Guitar Player, Mr Hendrix. Stay alive, peoples, stay alive. Don't go messing with no mind affecting dangerous chems, either.
You got your health, you got your wealth.
Keep on rocking in the free world, peoples.
best than the original, only god jimi could do this, master of masters.
I agree. I think it’s the definitive version.
God taking lessons
Bravo Jimi! It's for the ages.
Oh my good God. Jimi was untouchable. Kids, this is how it's done. Good luck.
Jimi Hendrix was always better than anybody else! From where did he come? I dont know but I always loved his guitarplaying and singing too, Jimi was a master ! Loved him. - john coolman
Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Jimi forever!!!!!💞
His playing came from another dimension ∆ 🎸
Il n'est pas encore né celui qui va le remplacer ❤
Hendrix is the only 0:40 guitar God's that can scare the shit out of me with this unbelievable experience 💫🌠👑👑👑👑👑👑🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
That's cool
and as my poor departed friend used to say,way back in 1983!"'n'rix!"I can still hear his voice saying it.i still remember the first time that he saw my poster of Jimi Hendrix on the wall,after I had mentioned him once or twice! it's hard to believe that all those days kept adding up,one day after another until thousands of days had passed!Johnny b goode!Hendrix's version!blimey saintt!what a performance that that was!
Numero uno 💯💯👏💯👏 Number One a Angel came down from Heaven
@@massimoautorino3864 interesting sentiment.angel came down from heaven yesterday,she stayed with me just long enough to rescue me,then she spread her wings high over me..he was just a beautiful lyricist wasn't he?he just came out of nowhere and in what was both a moment and a lifetime he was gone.the millions of lives he touched!
