The first three albums by Hendrix were ground breaking! Wonderful stuff!
imagine if he had lived a long life. 4 albums was all we got.
And people try to compare him to other guitarists. He was simply other worldly. Another top review 👌
To many musicians and composers, Hendrix is to the guitar what Bach is to western music. And that says a lot... 🎸🔥🎶
The basis for Hendrix theatrical performance was the competition between himself and Pete Townsend. The Who immediately followed Jimi at Monterey and the sacrifice was Jimi's way of saying to Pete..."top that!". An epic moment in the history of Rock music and one Townsend would never forget.
Momma Cass even commented to Pete that Jimi just stole your show
Brilliant description except the Who went on first.
@@nickfryearson1531 I remember there was an argument over who went first as neither wanted to go last.
@@pyrielrising4338You are absolutely spot on! Unfortunately for Pete Townshend... the Who won!
Jimi Hendrix was the greatest electric guitarist in my opinion. I love his music. He was always growing as an artist, experimenting with new sounds and all types of music. He was also visually stunning in his look snd style of playing. A true original that has influenced so many other artists. A candle that burns twice as bright burns twice as fast. RIP.
it's like books you read and find other people have the same thoughts as yourself but then you read books that tell you things you'd never thought or even conceived ,thats mind expanding.Hendrix appeared to be using the elements in an alchemy only he understood how to use.
Mitch Mitchel was just the man to fly solo as they swoop and whirl arround each other, some times miles above at other times diving close to the ground identifying their prey.
Bloody marvellous
I first heard Jimi on pirate radio - Hey Joe was the first single I believe. It was like a bolt of lightning and I loved his music instantly and still do. A friend phoned with the news of his passing and I was simply stunned - oh what could have been! Thanks for a great and thoughtful vid as usual.
*Fun fact:* James Joyces' *Ulysses* was the inspiration for the Jefferson Airplane song *"Rejoyce."*
psychedeilicsanctualy Each chapter of Ulysses was written in a different style and is an independent story, the albums James Marshall Hendrix made when he was alive changed music, my own favourite song was 1983 Moon turns the tides from Electric lady land also 'Machine gun' from Band of Gypsies
Thanks for the insight into the inspiration for Rejoyce-one o' my favorite Jefferson Airplane songs ever...!@@pmoran7971
New sub here. I love your input and knowledge of music!! Cheers!!
Thanks and welcome
The late sixtes was an explosion of sounds, driven by a myriade of artists, Jimmy was one of them, perhaps the best to open our minds to the possibility of more to come, he showed the way to heavy, prog, etc. He was a earthquake, just like punk later on. It's nice to hear you describe him and his music, the era, cause I was born in 1956 and I'm still a fan of that era and Jimmy, many thanks !
MUSIC, SWEET MUSIC, wish i could caress, yeeees . . .
I’ve loved Hendrix from the first time I heard it back in about ‘87. Now I have a teenage son and he got it straight away too.
I always found the fact that Hendrix was left handed, yet played a right handed guitar.
Nine years from Chuck Berrys Johnny B Goode in 1958 to Are You Experienced in 1967.They were intergalactic light years with Hendrixs mind blowing technique and vision
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on Hendrix's debut. Time for me to give it a proper listen, believe it or not.
Still the greatest guitarist. I think what he brought, other than his fantastic playing, was an awareness of the actual mechanics of the instrument. I love those live recordings where you can hear the guts of it all.
Now require Electric ladyland
😊🏴☠️
What a fantastic video have a wonderful day 😂❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊
Your album essays are like listening to Olivier discussing Shakespeare. Well done.
Lots of fine words and explanations of how good this album is have been written. All I can add was when I first heard it, I was off my tits on something or other and I've loved it ever since.
A lot of the guitar gods of today owe a great debt to Hendrix.
For those o' you unaware may I recommend David Dreams (XTC in Disguise) cover version o' Third Stone From The Sun. Also the isolated guitar version o' Jimi's original. FANTASTIC!
All 3 albums are as good as each other but my favourite will always be axis bold as love but im not sure why
Same here. He was on top of his game on that album. All the songs are so good on Axis. At the end of the day, THAT album represents Jimi the best imo.
No one was as good or the greatest guitar player as Rory Gallagher!!
About time
😊🏴☠️
Great look back at arguably rock music's most important debut. Jimi's music will never grow old. I can listen to May This Be Love and feel his soul and spirit. I think he's still with us. Thanks Barry.
There were thoughts of Jimi and Miles Davis getting together to work on an album … now that could’ve been some project if it’d had the chance to get off the ground.
Great review ...
Peppers, The Doors debut and Hendrix debut all in 1967 ... simply amazing ... you could do a segment simply on 1967 album releases ... 🤔
"A Psycho-Sexual Psychedelic Frenzy" on steroids I'd argue 😉
Nice review.
You mean Clapton couldn’t believe Jimi was much better than him 😂Didn’t Hendrix say Rory Gallagher was better than all of them? I found out I ‘have’ synesthesia, Some think Jimi had this wonderful affliction too. The mixing of senses in the brain in my case guitar sounds, invoke colour. His chords for Purple Haze shared this sensation.Enjoyed this episode so much as you invoke your own painterly verbal portrait of this genius and his multi dimensional talent so vividly, I will return to savour it again.
Are you experienced, Love or confusion, and Third stone from the sun made a believer out of me.
Excellent job
Thanks for the visit
A cosmic classic. I prefer the US cover. I believe Andrew Loog Oldham had the opportunity to sign him prior to Chas Chandler having seen him in NY with Linda Keith, but he wasn’t too keen so she recommended Hendrix to Chas instead.
I wonder if Hendrix had synesthesia, ie he could hear colours?
Mustn’t forget Noel and Mitch who played an integral part in the Experience.
Wish I was old enough to have seen him, my Bruv did at the IOW Fest.
I’d like to have watch that tour they did with Floyd, The Move and I think Amen Corner.
I’d highly recommend the Handel / Hendrix museum in London - well worth a trip. 🤓👍🎸
I must admit im not particularly a guitar heavy rock fan but the album is magnificent, to me he compares to the very great composer Franz Liszt
Best guitar playing of all time Star Spangled from Woodstock, and Machine Gun from Band Of Gypsies, unmatched to this day, I've always wondered though how good it would have been with Jack Bruce on bass and vocal, his first album is one of the best and its nearly 60 years old, rather insane.
Am I correct in believing his Star Spangled Banner was not only meant to be ironic but also putting up the fingers to the US establishment and the war mongers? I’m not American tho 😂
AKA The Spark Tangled Bunner. And yes it was putting a finger up at the establishment.
When you take the national anthem of the USA then turn it into bombs falling from the sky and jets screaming through the air it was a clear statement of intent done in the best way possible.@@Saffy-yr8vo
hendrix only released 3 records in his lifetime. are you experienced-axis bold as love-electric ladyland. all great but i think the first album was the best. it was the blueprint for the rest and nothing he did afterwards really improved upon are you experienced.
Barry why does your shirt change on its own?
Hendrix could without a doubt play the Blues, but he was not a Blues player. He played Rock.
Gone 53 years, still untouchable. So clearly the greatest electric guitar improviser. To really appreciate his genius, you need to listen to the many available live recordings. It is where you are mesmerized by the sheer power, speed, tone, noise, rhythms etc. coming from his Strat! Beyond the number one ranking, way beyond.
Nice review.
