      Yeah at first i do not appreciate him because of his chord E7#9 that sounds abnormal for me at the beginning and his style that is noisy. But when i became a music major and understand every musicians i already understand hendrix's style and is wild. Turned out to be one of my influences in guitar as a musician he is very important and Bach of the electric guitar.

      Mitch was Jimi's perfect drummer. His Jazz influenced free style works so well within the 'power trio'. Buddy Miles is a great drummer, but he was all wrong for what Jimi was doing. Mitch is a very overlooked musician. Personally I think this line up was the best that Jimi had. I was never a fan of Noel Redding's playing. Billy Cox's playing was exactly what Jimi needed. Pity he wasn't there from the beginning.

      Was actually having a bad trip on mushrooms one time when Voodoo Child came on. It took me to another universe, and I realized exactly what you are saying here, that Hendrix is not dead, because he is profoundly impacting my consciousness and communicating with me in real time through his recorded music. It's like he was there in the room, in my head, as real as any person. The experience was much more of an intuitive realization that cannot be captured in words. I just went around telling people Jimi Hendrix had taught me how to achieve immortality. The rest of my trip was a good one.

      @@liru6869 Lol. Well psychedelics are definitely not for everyone. And I wouldn't recommend using them as a party drug. Research has shown that when used in a structured environment with a experienced shaman they can have great therapeutic properties. Many cultures have used them ceremonially and therapeutically for millennia. Personally, I've only used psychedelics twice and not again for the past 5 years. Both times have triggered anxiety and for me it's not worth it. They're not toys. Though, I am extremely grateful for the positive experience and insights that I did have while under the influence and can say I'm a better and deeper person for it.

      As a high kid in the mid 80s, and as someone who learned to play and to appreciate the guitar, metal (music) wasn't that bad; it's the imaginary dark culture and it's the unintelligible lyrics that I wasn't into. Some of the most talented guitarists went into heavy metal or came out of that sub-culture. Most heavy metal music were terrible, just like most non-heavy metal music. But, again, some of the guitar solos --- some Malmsteen speed; others average speed ---- created for heavy metal have been sublime...

      Same as Keith Moon with drums (at least between 1967-70 as after that he go rapidly weaken). He is projecting some 'on spectrum' vibes into the instrument, ignoring most orders of the janre. Unused to think that immigrating Moon, even for a five minute drumming session , would fail due to inability to stand it phisically but some time down the road I got to learn it was because I was (and seems like none else) not wired like him.

There are others of course. Jimi is in a league all his own. I'd say he and The Doors were the last remnants of the soul of the '60s. I was a kid, but I do remember the times fondly. You can copy him, but there can only be one Jimi. He is a slim shady for sure.

    I'm sure Leo Fender never envisioned that when he created the Stratocaster...
    The way Hendrix abuses the tremolo in his own beautiful way was completely unheard of back then...
    And yet even though it wasn't designed for such extreme divebombs it's amazing how Hendrix always managed to stay in tune...For the most part...
    He was a genius who did the best he could with the kind of gear he had back then and pushed the limits of music and the guitar so far ahead...
    Of course there were many other great guitar players back then...But no matter how great they were they were still guitar players...

I'm sure those people would have loved to live through the Great Depression, the Dust Bowl, and World War II. Most of them imagine it would be just like the Great Gatsby, but at that time very few people were that rich.
      Then you get people who say they wish they were born in a different time because, "music was good back then". This I find ridiculous because there has always been good music, and there has always been shitty music. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. There is still amazing music today, just like there was shitty music in the '60s. As a matter of fact, there were people in the '60s who though The Beatles had ruined music, and wished they could go back to, "the Golden age of music".
      Lastly, wishing to be born in a different time is a waste of time, because for one thing, the grass is always greener on the other side, and of course, you will never be able to be born in another time. Getting upset about it is a waste of brainpower.

      Thanks but don't think so negatively..Its easy to look at today's pop scene and thinks nothing is happening in music but I think that would be a mistake. Every generation has musicians that are groundbreaking one of a kind. I never got to see Mozart or Bach. The difference is you have to sort thru all the noise to find the types that are innovative and brilliant. It doesn't have to just be in the rock world either..music is constantly morphing and there will always be some new genius come along that is special..You may have to search a little harder and they may not have millions of fans but they are out there. Stay healthy, keep learning and 65 can be the best time of life..I'm having quite a great time of it myself. Having said all that it was cool seeing Jimi and Janis Joplin 2 times and the Doors to mention just a few..

    I was there in 1970 and Hendrix played late on the 4th of July and gave one of the great performances of his career. This was the second time I saw him play and there are great musicians still today, so don't get bored or broken spirited. Still those were the greatest times for me and the hippies were wonderful. We could have shared a nation and a world of brothers and sisters in one free rainbow unity, dispensed with money and wars, and gotten on with green solar and wind power for each and everyone ...and we still can do it.

    Whenever I watch other great guitarists perform live, I notice how they kind of tense up and really focus on what they're playing and try not to make mistakes. But whenever i watch Jimi, I just see him play guitar, and that's what makes him so great. It's like he doesn't care what happens during the performance as long as it sounds good. He doesn't focus to hard on playing, he just goes with the flow. And if there are any mistakes, he just blends them in with the song. Jimi is a true master of the guitar who died way to young.

    Jimi always played like his life depends on it, like he knew he wasn't going to live long, so he lived many lifetimes through his music. Each song you can hear a piece of his soul, his beliefs, his heritage, from belly button window, Dolly dagger native chants, his
    Merman song sounds like underwater aliens, he was and always will be ahead of his time because he put timelessness into his songs, of course he did blues standards of the time, but there was a whole other part of him that inspired many, the feedback king of the day, made every player since then aware of how to use feedback loops, and integrated them into feelings.
