You can't even compare these two they're both in a class of their very own absolutely amazing
That’s right, no disrespect to either it’s just the point of the series
Hendrix was like a musical angel alive here here on Earth..
🐐🐐🐐
One master influencing another…when SRV was asked about being compared to Jimi, he famously said Jimi is Jimi and I am Stevie. SRV was so humble and loved, respected, and paid tribute to all the old guards.
They're both great but Stevie was only a teen when Jimi died...he couldn't have been an influence on Jimi.
@@jenniferfoster1692 - you misunderstood my comment. Jimi certainly influenced SRV, not the other way around. I am old enough to understand that. 😀
The microphone covering was not typical, it was done on the fly because of 40 mph winds. They cut the foam out of their instrument cases and put it on to try to shield the wind. Check out Jimi's song Machine Gun, live at the Fillmore East 1-1-70 off the album Band of Gypsys to see the sheer magnitude of Jimi's other worldly talents.
Man, i couldn't agree with you more, I don't understand why reactors havn't done his masterpiece..
🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Jimi was the professor and Stevie Ray was the straight-A graduate.
🔥🔥🤘🏽
Jimi Hendrix is the GOAT, SRV knew that. Jimi songs, studio versions: 'Purple Haze', 'Voodoo Child', 'All Along the Watchtower', 'Are You Experienced", 'Red House', 'Little Wing' etc. It's a deep rabbit hole. Great reaction!
Well said!
All along the watch tower is a Dylan song...
@@austerityclause Yep, it is! This is about Jimi's version. And Bob himself has said it's a Jimi song now. He adopted some of the changes Jimi made when he plays it live, now, and has said when he plays it it's essentially an homage toJimmy. But yes, most people know Bob Dylan wrote it & I would never pretend he didn't. He's written some great songs!
You should have used Jimi's live Woodstock version of Voodoo Child. It's heads and shoulders above the rainbow bridge version.
I made a longer reply to say so but also why.
And so they should've used the Austin City Limits one for Stevie
SRV's performance at Austin was much better too so yea there's that.
SRV was a master of Blues,Rock & Jazz! IMO,had he lived 20 more years,SRV would have revolutionized Jazz,the way he revolutionized Blues.
Riviera Paradise was a perfect example of what you said! 👋😎💯❤️
And would have much less inspiration without Hendrix.
SRV didn't revolutionize anything. He was super traditional. Jimi Hendrix revolutionize everything.
Jimi was otherworldly with his style and sound… But Stevie is still my guitar hero!! Both have their own phenomenal sound and techniques!
🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
SRV was great in his own right, but Hendrix was his idol. He wore the same wardrobe as Jimi, played all of Jimi's music catalogue, and he himself said Jimi was the best ever. Also, Jimi was the first to do all of these things and didn't copy anyone. Jimi changed Rock music overnight in a small London Pub. Oh yeah, did you know that Jimi is left-handed, but plays his Stratocaster guitar upside down, and all of the chords backwards? Look closely at videos of Jimi playing, and you'll see his guitar is upside down. Insane! While growing up as a 9-year-old kid in Seattle, Jimi 's dad got him a cheap Bargain Basement guitar at the local Sears store. One problem, Jimi was a lefty, and almost all guitars, like Baseball gloves, and Golf clubs, are made for right-handed people. No problem, Jimi just flipped it over, and began to teach himself how to play everything upside-Down, and backwards. That right there alone, puts him on a different level than anyone else. Take 20 minutes, and listen to Jimi Hendrix at The Fillmore, play "Machine Gun" live. It's all you have to hear.
Let's not forget that Stevie played a guitar with 13's on the high E string, and completely manhandled those cables he called strings, bending and manipulating them with absolute control. I think that puts HIM on a level above everyone else! In regards to the idolizing of Jimi, Stevie actually had many influences---including all the great blues masters, especially---and in particular Albert King. Jimi certainly was an incredible player and musical innovator on the guitar, but I'm certain that he had heroes and influences too. Every great musician, artist, athlete, or whatever has/had role models, heroes, and influences in their lives. Anyway, Stevie will always be the GOAT to me. Also, he was WAY too modest of a man to have ever declared himself the greatest guitar player. That made him that much more of one to be admired. Anyway, I respect your opinion on the matter of the Jimi or Stevie argument. Blessings!
Jimi Hendrix did play a right-handed Strat left-handed and started the trend of putting the necks on guitars upside down to emulate him, but Jimi did restring the guitar where the E string was on top and the B string on the bottom so it chorded like a left handed guitar.
Right handed guitar flipped but it was re-strung to leftie. Making sure you have facts. Other players still thought it contributed to the Hendrix sound.
Reaching the highest fret on the high E is much tougher with the cut-out in the wrong place and the tremolo bar having to be left a turn in-threaded.
I don't try to compare these two. SRV was incredible, no question, but Jimi will always be my favorite. You should check out the long, studio version that nobody ever reacts to: Voodoo Chile (not Voodoo Child Slight Return), the 4th track on Jimi's Electric Ladyland album. 14 minutes of pure bliss!
🤘🏽
Word is that Jimi was always with his guitar, like an extension of himself, a true master of the art! The man is a legend! 💯 Vaughn is all right for sure, but Jimi is just Jimi. 🔥🎸🔥
Dope video as always! Much love and success BIG STAX!!! 🫡
So good🙏
My favorite grove master. I'm so happy with my Jimi experience. Wave on mister business man. You can't dress like me.
💙💙💙
@@StaxReactsStax, that's a lyric from a Hendrix song: If Six Were Nine
The creator gets all the credit. Without Jimi Stevie wouldn't be playing this. Stevie ray was a 1-4-5 Blues shuffle expert. He had to play Hendrix and a few other artists just to mix it up and add something else. Hendrix played a wide variety of music.
🙏🙏🙏
Loved them both. Hendrix was very creative and being a lefty, maybe that gave his guitar fingers the heads-up! SRV gives you blues and passion!! His guitar work was slamming and unsurpassed! Too bad we don’t have duets from these two GOATS.
🙏🙏
I love them both...Jimi was a little more of "throw everything at you at once"...SRV seemed more controlled with clean crisp notes but still fast, accurate, and the channeled soul was just unbelievable with both of them and both hardly ever played a song the same way twice....cant go wrong with either but SRV is my personal goat! I could listen to/watch SRV's Texas Flood live from El Mocambo on loop for days...just unbelievable...
🤘🏽🤘🏽🔥🔥
Yeah, to me, their respective sounds were quite different. Jimi had that sort of "outer space" psychedelic element to his playing. Whereas Stevie sounded like the blues on steroids. Both were absolute guitar masters. But I'm a Stevie guy all the way!
It would be hard to find a guitarist who could stand up to either of these legends!
🤘🏽🤘🏽
2 of the very best to ever do it! Jimi laid the foundation and Stevie just added to it with his talent. Just like Jimi covered his song 4:48 writing idol Bob Dillon . Stevie covered his guitar idol Jimi Hendrix. One came before the other so there is no who's the best debate. They are both in guitar heaven as we speak
🙏🙏🤘🏽🤘🏽
Jimi has many many "hits" that would get your views and clicks. But I would go for the margins. Machine Gun. Freedom. Room full of Mirrors. What am I saying??? ... every Jimi song is bliss. You do you. I'll ride along at work.
Machine Gun 🎸
Betttt
Manic Depression and Crosstown Traffic...
@@stevenmonte7397 What Steven Said. 100%
Great reaction Stax. It’s impossible to compare. When Jimi did his original, it was absolutely raw, groundbreaking guitar work in which nothing of the sort ever existed before it. Stevie is showing his love for one of his greatest influences-- and he did it in a way only Stevie could do-- the ultimate technical proficiency. Jimi was a free flowing guitar master.
Thank you so much
We can all be fans of either of these 2 great guitarists and everyone can have their own opinion about who was the best guitarist and that’s all fine and good, but the one thing I will always respect about SRV is that he never compared himself to any other great guitarist and never disrespected anyone one including Hendrix. He never gave any attention to rankings or comparisons. If you can find any of his interviews you’d see how humble of a guy he was and never bragged about his talent or people trying to tell him whether he was as good or better than Jimmy.
🙏🙏🙏
Jimi Hendrix never compared himself to another guitarist in a disparaging way. In any interview I've ever seen (or heard) him in, he was very complimentary when speaking of the skills of other players. Jimi's songwriting and compositions were just as important to him as his guitar wizardry. He had it all...and then some.
Jimiiiiiii
We love jimi bro, i see you in all reactions haha but i search jimi reactions every day too😂
I wish I could see Jimi react to SRV! He plays with the same swag. Jimi is the most influential to me, but damn SRV gives every guitarist something to chase. When it comes to swag, I've got Jimi, SRV and Prince at the top. Put everybody on stage and they will be the last three standing.
🙏🙏🙏
What's crazy is that they both had VERY short lived careers ending in their untimely deaths.
Both Jimi and SRV learned their chops in dive clubs and bars to local theaters with other bands until getting record contracts on their own with their own bands;
Jimi Hendrix first recorded as a contributor in 1964 with the Isley Bros. but 1966 was when he and the Jimi Hendrix experience began their reign until 1970.
SRV also came up the ranks the same way and then formed SRV and Double Trouble, debut in 1983 until 1990
So basically Six and Seven years respectively of recording history of these two GOATs for the world to hear and love.
🙏
Jimi hendrix all the way
💙
To me SRV was the GOAT. but could you imagine seeing Hendrix live like that?? The 70’s must have been a whole vibe!
🙏🙏🙏
One thing that people forget about is that Hendrix was heavy into psychedelics...That stuff really messes with your mind so partly explains why his music is so far out there....in a good way of course. Conversely SRV got into cocaine & alcohol before he cleaned himself up. Those drugs aren't really conducive to playing music...amazing that he was so so good.
I wish you had reacted to the SRV version LIVE IN NASHVILLE. OMG!!!
Jimi was the essence of transcendental guitar solo on Voodoo Chile. The fuzz and feedback style back in the day was new and fresh. Stevie obviously could do the same but was a bit crisper on the strings for a bit later audience. When I listen to the albums cuts of these two guys playing Voodoo Chile I prefer Stevie’s, but only because I prefer that cleaner style. However I can’t really compare the two guitarists. They’re like two different branches from the same massive tree.
I loved watching your reaction to both versions. I knew you’d like both of ‘em.
Jimi built that scale, and then broke it!
🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Do some more Jimi Hendrix try Jimi Hendrix Hey Joe live at Monterey pop
No contest Jimi's the goat and Jimi's trippin his brains out
A few songs with great covers.
Thin Lizzy - Whiskey In The Jar 1973 VS Metallica - Whiskey In The Jar (there is way older folk versions of this song)
Dolly Parton - Jolene VS The White Stripes - Jolene
Nine Inch Nails Hurt VS Johnny Cash - Hurt
If you want to go for a triple.
Gloria Jones - Tainted Love VS Soft Cell - Tainted Love VS Marilyn Manson - Tainted Love
🙏🙏🙏
Yes, I can see why Ernie Isley was influenced by him. Great.
🔥🔥🔥
You should hear him play the national anthem
I have a good twofer for you. Blood, Sweat, and Tears had a great song ( one of many!) Titled;
"I'll love you more than you'll ever know"
Later, a blues guitar legend did an absolutely amazing version of this same song. That blues legend was... Gary Moore! 🙏💔💯
I forgot to say the live tribute is played by "Heart"
🙏🙏🙏🙏
1976- "you're no good"- Linda Ronstadt

Vs.
1979- "You're no good"
Van Halen

Both was Fantastic ❤ 🔥❤️🔥❤️🤣
Factssss
Wow I just realized Jimmy Sounds like Terry Kath when he sings really ironic since he admired Kath so much.
I need to check em out
there doesnt have to be a better or best artist..example ,,who was better Rembrant or Picasso...personal preferences..great reaction...
It’s just the point of the series, but I get what you’re saying💙thanks for the support
I don't know if you noticed, but Jimi was playing left handed. Since it was damn near impossible to get a lefty electric guitar back then, most lefties learned how to play right handed. Jimi just turned his guitar upside down. It's insane how good he was. It's such a shame he died so young.
I did notice, that’s insane
And re-strung it
I personally think Stevie Ray was a better guitar player than Jimi but Jimi was the innovator. Without him, Stevie Ray Vaughan wouldn't be who he was. As far as this song goes, the live version by SRV is way better but I will choose the studio version by Hendrix over all of them. It is one of the greatest recorded songs ever.
Respect
Is Stevie better than Hendrix? You're biased??? Rolling Stone Magazine got the rankings right. People fail to realize Hendrix was only 27 years old when he died.
STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN IS THE BEST. PERIOD. ❤❤❤❤
THATS A FACT
Jimi God Hendrix
🔥
Almost impossible to compare the two versions, because they were both guitar gods. However, I give this one to Stevie for a simple reason - he played the song a little slower, and that worked for me.
Jimi is one of the only mfs on earth thats ALWAYS better live, im consistently shocked by how god damn interesting his playing choices are on stage. and its effortless. hes like the Thelonious Monk of rock. maybe the recording quality is shittier and the vocals arent as tight etc etc, but his live playing makes up for all of it every time.
Great job on this format! Not sure if anyone else has offered up Higher Ground (artists Stevie Wonder and Red Hot Chili Peppers ). Also Jimi Hendrix was a paradigm shift in guitar/performance. I think SRV was the evolution of JH
🙏🙏🙏
Jimi,is the best....
Sure issss
1 & 2 on my list take ur pick and it's all good
You haven't heard anything yet, check out the epic 15min version by jimi on electric ladyland
For sure
Being new to guitar solos you should check the great ones out. 1st one I would recommend is Comfortably Numb - Pink Floyd. Live, pulse concert version.
Bettt will add to the list
Stevie Repetitive Vaughan is nothing compared to Jimi Hendrix. Technically great and passionate for sure but always the same licks and Jimi never repeated himself. Jimi was an open source of unlimited musical imagination. So many people are impressed by the wrong things.
Nice
Thanks bro
For sure SRV version is more crisp & clear; like every ting he is playing. He is a such a legend!
That said, i always prefer the Hendrix "I don't give a F*** when i am making love with my guitar " & for is huge creativity.
🔥🔥🔥
Love the concept of 2 for Tuesday young man👍☺️excellent combination of review and how different artists/musicians can be.
I'd like to request Dolly Parton 's original version and Whitney Houston' s cover - " I Will Always Love You" and Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes original and Simply Red's cover of, "If You Don't Know Me By Now." Get into it... Do You❤
💙💙💙
Jimmie nails it all! Think Stevie does the vocals a smidge better. Deep soul
💙💙💙
Although Jimmy Hendrix did NOT originate a lot of his tricks, he was the first to piece it altogether as music, as complete songs.
First as R n B songs that the Chitlin Circuit dismissed and always got him fired from his bands, and then he introduced it to ROCK......the white mans plastic rock, which Hendrix transformed into a credible rock to match the original rock from the Red Houses ....
He also taught the white world how to play electric guitar as a solo instrument of many sounds, tones and moods.
Before Hendrix, rock guitar was one finger picking like a beginner.
🔥🔥🔥🤙🏾
Jimmy Hendrix wrote this song. He was a master at that guitar . . . check it out, it’s UPSIDE DOWN he was a south paw. Also he did a version of the Star Spangled Banner (National Anthem) that was controversial at the time that you should take a look at.
It was rumored in the day that Stevie Ray Vaughn could play Hendrix better than Hendrix himself.
🙏🙏🙏
Yeah. "Rumored" is the right characterization.
Do the song "Inside looking out." The original by the Animals and the cover by Grand Funk Railroad
The filter is for the wind not a pop filter. Just something they had to throw together because the wind was to strong. They had pop filters back then but that would not help in this situation.
Oh gotcha
Oh yeah Jimi wrote the song it's his if srv was still alive I'm sure he would agree with me in fact I saw Stevie play at a small club in upstate NY when his first album came out I loved Stevie he played a few Hendrix songs but there's only one Jimi Hendrix people don't understand what Hendrix had to go through you haven't seen another black guitarist in white rock and roll have you? They killed Jimi toured him to death in fact I saw interview with srv about Jimi and he said what I thought all along Jimi was murdered ✌️
Check out Gary Moore playing Red House
When hendrix was born I believe God said let there be rock and the rest is history
🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾
If you 've never reacted to Hendix before please check out "Hey Joe" Live. This video right here... th-cam.com/video/RAf7c6rJdHg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=FG_5mOfMP3wIXo1Q
Betttt
The cameraman was showing waayyy too much of the crowd when he should have been watching Jimi!
🙏🙏
oh, man... here we freeking go!!!
Its like picking the red or black Ferrari both are super fast just which one flavor you like over the other 😊
🙏🙏🙏
Imminence with songs “Beyond the Pale, Come What May and The Call of the Void”!!!!
🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
CORRECTION!!!!!!!!! not 1 of the Hendrix is the BEST EVER
🤘🏽🤘🏽😜
Jimmi and Stevie was both guitar legends Jimmi invented and Stevie just improved it some .
🔥🔥🤘🏽
Improved absolutely nothing.
Please listen to Jimi’s Voodoo Chile(Slight Return)original album/ lp(long player)recording version. I love the live grooving to this but original shuts it all down.
If Jimi is wild and unchained then SRV is fury when controlled either way both will blow your boots off
🙏🙏🙏
Tricky thing to compare.
Problem is both Hendrix and SRV both perform this song in different ways each time live.
Another issue-sound quality and tech is different on existing videos. That doesn’t help Hendrix in comparing.
I really like SRV’s version in Austin 1989 best-full of energy and distinctive.
SRV is a guitar master; BUT,
if we were to hear only one version of “Voodoo Child”, it would have to be Hendrix because he was the original genius creator of it. I am sure SRV would feel the same.
🙏🙏🙏
Re the crowd: In today's parlance ...
They. Weren't. Ready.
🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
You can't compare them because Stevie Ray Vaughn, who was only a teen when Jimi died, modeled himself largely after Jimi. Not that he didn't do his own thing, but you can't compare the original, who changed guitar playing and rock music to a musician who took all that he could learn from that person. And Jimi's live performances are great, but to hear his 'songs' as they were recorded, with a structure & his focused vocals, you have to listen to the studio versions. His live performances were very loose & he did extended solos and jammed, so to understand his songs (the vast majority of which he wrote the music & lyrics himself) you should definitely check out his studio versions.
It’s just the purpose of the series
@@StaxReacts Yes, I totally get it & it's great! Nothing against you or this video. Just commenting that their live styles were quite different & everyone is saying that SRV is so meticulous, well, that wasn't Jimi's style live. You can get a great feel for his structured compositions, vocals & musicianship through the studio recordings. Love your channel & your reactions, here to support you. ☺
I think the crowd reaction, dancing or static sat down might be due their heads melting from halucagenic LSD to the point people are pure max off the planet. LSD being insane as, especially in those days! Was experimented with by the military before this to stick peoples minds beyond beyond. Both musicians are also beyond beyond tbf.
🙏🙏🙏
❤
💙💙💙
If u like underground rap check out dance with the devil by immortal technique that shit is HEAVY (Not the animatef version tho)
Betttt
Jimi's performance is even more impressive when you listen to a performance like that and hear him carrying the band the entire time. He hired Mitch Mitchell and Noel Redding because they weren't good musicians. He was pissed at his label and he wanted to prove that he was so good he could be famous with mediocre musicians. You can hear them struggling to keep up with Jimi the entire time.
Jimi played an upside down right handed guitar.
🤝🔥
If you know what your listenin' to his Guitar is outta tune Stevie Ray Vaughan sounds so much cleaner cause he's in tune. ❤❤ love .y brother.❤❤
Love you too
SRV...sounds better because its not outside...and better equipment and PA system
🙏🙏
When you are on the level of Stevie. Hendrix and Django there is no such thing as Greatest they above all that shit
🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
Jimmy played it, Stevie perfected it
factssss
And you ruined it by saying something so stupid and ignorant.
You should compare Dolly Parton's Jolene vs. Beyonce's cover of Jolene
🙏🙏🙏🔥🔥
SRV wouldn't have done it later without Jimi. That being said, the Maui version isn't close to the best. It was an impromptu concert on the top of the mountain with stupid wind. It took 30 years before this got released.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE check out the Woodstock version and do ALL Hendrix for a while.
I was commenting every day when you were doing Beastie Boys.
🙏🙏🙏
Jimi had a better voice. On guitar they were both the Greatest Of All Time.
🙏🙏🙏
ANOTHER COMMENT: This is outside your usual genres but how about Me and Bobby McGee by the creator Kris Kristofferson and the person who re-made it famous, Janis Joplin? If you're feeling frisky, throw in the Waylon Jennings version because Kris wrote it for Roger Miller to perform. And Roger was much more famous as a song writer, not a singer. Even more complex is the fact that Kris got famous by luck, sitting in with country stars as a janitor at the studio but later became more famous as an actor. Is that compelling enough?
SRV is a much cleaner player. Jimi is good, SRV is phenomenal.
🙏🙏🙏
In my opinion the student surpassed the teacher. I believe Jimi would approve even though Stevie was too humble to agree.
🙏🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥
The student would have had to learn everything the teacher knew. EVERYTHING. That obviously didn't come to pass.
SRV doesn’t cover Hendrix … he channels Hendrix
🙏🙏🙏
Love Hendrix, he was next level, was listening to him long before SRV, but those who refuse to see how SRV to Hendrix's next level to the next next level are just haters...cleaner live versions, more coherent fills, SRV's better vocals, and SRV never forgot to play whole verses of songs
I'm no more of a hater than you are, I just disagree. Although, you COULD be more of a hater...
🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽💙💙
Comparing Jimi and SRV live is kind of difficult, because Jimi played very loosely live, extended solos, tangents etc & he didn't care about his vocals much playing live. His studio versions are where he shines. Jimi's got way more soul, the music is coming from another plane of existence through him. His vocals, when he was in the studio, perfectly fit the music & lyrics he crafted. It's pure otherworldly energy & I'll take that over precise notes any day.
So what comes after "haters"? What's worse than that?
I got one for ya. Whole Lotta love Led Zeppelin versus Prince (indigo night’s version)
You’re welcome
Betttt
Try Diamond Head - Am I Evil ( 1980 ) vs Metallica - Am I Evil ( 1984 )
❤️❤️❤️
I think the Jimi vs. Stevie argument will endure forever. Personally, I'm an SRV guy. His playing was always more technically precise and controlled, despite playing a guitar with extremely heavy-gauged strings and high action. I've read quotes from other noted guitarists who said they tried playing Stevie's instrument and couldn't bend those strings to save their lives. Yet Stevie completely manipulated them to achieve that unmistakably deep, gritty tone. Plus, Stevie displayed just as much showmanship as Jimi---AND had a stronger singing voice. Everyone gets to have opinions, though. I'm simply expressing mine.
🙏🙏🙏
Bro pls react to killswitch engaged - fixation on the darkness.
You will love it.
I will check it out
@@StaxReacts thx fam 🙏
All Stevie’s versions are good, but I really LOVE the one from Austin, 1989! Check it out!
th-cam.com/video/cFwTbsKkqxE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=e-MiDKDKduMSPvlY
🙏🙏🙏🙏
I tell you all one thing ill put Jimi's only 3 studio albums against any guitar players bring it on lets hear it haters wtf is a hater hate this
🙏🙏
SRV is the ONLY guitarist worthy to cover Jimi's music! You should hear him cover Jimi's "Little Wing"!
💙💙🤘🏽💙
