      I mean for the record version which this cover is based on Jimi did not sing and play at the same time. In fact they recorded most of the song separately. Hendrix overdubbed the different guitar parts several times. Basically erasing the original recording. Pissed off the bass player so Hendrix overdubbed that too with himself playing the bass. Seemed like a nightmare to record this song surprised it turned out so well in the end. They had 16 tracks to mix together by the end!

      You gotta look at the ratio. He got 98K likes so that’s 1 dislike for every 98 people. 1% disapproval isn’t that bad! Why would anyone dislike this video? Because there’s always naysayers. Some people are too critical with bullshit like “That’s not EXACTLY like the way Jimi played it!” And then there are people who play electric guitar who’s not into these music, and then there are people who just push dislike just because they don’t want to conform with the popular opinion (ie no good reason)
      Anyways, I loved this video. Wonderfully played! I wish I had this guy’s talent.

    • @matthewpalmer4081
      @matthewpalmer4081 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I personally didn't dislike the video but I think they disliked it because he is play the chords out of sequence on his acoustic and in the wrong area, if you pay attention he starts with an A minor power chord, and then switches to the G, then back to the A minor, then to the what should be an F power chord but he plays it a fret up where a B power chord is.
      The sequence that it's played in goes G, A minor, G, F power chord, that's how I play it on my acoustic and it sounds in line with the track, so a possible explanation for the dislikes is that he put the track over the video and muted what he played.

    • @matthewpalmer4081
      @matthewpalmer4081 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Actually he plays the chords A minor, I'm pretty sure that's a B power chord, G, then back to the A minor
      Should be: G, Am, G, F power chord

    What I appreciate most about this is that you're really capturing what feels like the original intent of the song. Everybody else who covers/teaches this song (particularly on TH-cam) does a flat-out, balls-to-the-wall rendition of it. That's fine, but it really doesn't do the original it's due justice. This one absolutely does. It's not just about playing the right notes.

    Just watch the fingers. There is truly something inherently sacred in the way Hendrix used the pentatonics.
    Its just 'cosmically right'. Totally not being dramatic, playing this, feels very much like religion to me. Its just mathematically perfect.

      I'm a guitar player lover,, not a player. Something about Hendrix and what you said. Now that I see so many people doing his covers on TH-cam, it always impresses me that it's not so much that Hendrix was difficult to play as that his choice of notes was so brillant in a non complicated way. He's been my main man for over 50 years. TH-cam has only endeared him to me more that now I can listen to him and see him play things I only imagined seeing and hearing way back in the day. And don't even talk about how interesting his life was. He packed so much into such a short time. Finally, let me say that I think Jimi had an amazing ear for music.

      This is the best part of Hendrix - the composition, the choice of notes and the phrasing thereof - cosmically right, mathematic, the Platonic form, timeless. never tire of it, always scratches the itch, over and over, it soothes my soul. Hendrix WAS the electric guitar. Almost everyone else sounds like they are just fitting together stereotypical riffs like Legos.

      Hendrix had to sing at the same time and he was never the type of guy who would play a song live like he did in the recording. Fun fact though during the recording of the song he did it all in one take. I listened to kathy etchingham talk about it. th-cam.com/video/VIzA1xVQDB4/w-d-xo.html Skip to 19:50

    If you wanna sing along:
    There must be some kind of way outta here
    Said the joker to the thief
    There's too much confusion
    I can't get no relief
    Business men, they drink my wine
    Plowman dig my earth
    None of them along the line
    Nobody up at his word
    Hey, hey
    No reason to get excited
    The thief he kindly spoke
    There are many here among us
    Who feel that life is but a joke
    But, uh, but you and I, we've been through that
    And this is not our fate
    So let us stop talkin' falsely now
    The hour's getting late, hey
    All along the watchtower
    Princes kept the view
    While all the women came and went
    Barefoot servants, too
    Outside in the cold distance
    A wildcat did growl
    Two riders were approaching
    And the wind began to howl
