I have a high level of Openness to the Jimi Hendrix Experience
Dont we all ???
6 could be 9.
Same☺
Who doesn’t?
Agreeableness too.
Analyze Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd. There's a guy who needed a team of therapists.
Haha indeed
Syd Barrett, Little Walter, or Miles Davis
@Johan Hansén Same
Nah just a case of drugs plus Asperger's syndrome. Perhaps schizophrenia. Pretty standard stuff tbh
YES
A Richard Pryor analysis would be very interesting actually
A most excellent idea, Mr. Non Entity.
I third this
Yes that would be interesting
Has he done Andy Kaufman?
Its really sad he didnt get to make 30 and live through the 70s and countuine to make great rock n roll far ahead of his time!!!
Burl ives worked into his mid-80s. Elvis without drugs could have still been singing in 2015.
You are absolutely right, the music that we know today would have mostly been behind the times by now had he continued to live. I've often wondered what music would sound like today had jimi stayed with us.
@@nine9whitepony526 From my assessment, I really believe Hendrix was slowly forming into more softer and mellow sounds, since he stated in interviews shortly before his death he was finding distortion unbearable. Think, songs like Angel and Drifting.
@@bassinblue his friends have said he wanted to move to a more jazzy sound and those later tracks certaintly seem to have a more jazz influenced sensibility
The 1st time I heard him play in a documentary was a transcendent experience. I have a severe chronic pain condition & while he played, I felt no pain for the 1st time in 20yrs
Don't believe these fools. There is a statement from the guys from the ambulance, you must listen what they are saying Not this fool.
To Ms Jayne
Yeaaaa. No pain!!!!!!!
Congratulations 🎉 🌈
There is no question, the therapeutic value of Music ( and other Arts) - in playing or listening. If any musician could remove your pain, it would be JIMI...
"Music sweet music
I wish I could caress ...Manic depression is a frustrating mess" It's very sad he died so young - He was a phenomenally talented individual.
Jimi had a difficult childhood. His mother was young when she had him and his brother Leon. She was a free spirit like Jimi and found the responsibility of caring for two young boys difficult and his father Als' personality didn't make family life any easier... Lucille did turn to alcohol to ease her frustrations. After the divorce, the boys rarely saw their mother and their father would denounce her as an alcoholic to his boys. They frequently stayed with relatives, and their were parts of his childhood that he couldn't recall because of the chaos. I have heard more details about the circumstances of his death that suggest foul play, but the man needs to be remembered for his incredible spirit, fashion sense, and musical talent that has influenced countless people over the years. Rest in peace, James Marshall ❤🎆🌹 ✌
@@janej6184 Thank you... Glad someone liked what I had to say☺✌
Laura...I am one of the top investigators in to Jimi's death...Jimi was murdered without a doubt and Dr Grande here is very possibly doing government disinformation to help cover it up...
@@Exiles800 I know he was murdered.His manager Micheal Jeffery had been in British intelligence... But towards the end he was starting to crack under pressure by exhibiting angry outbursts towards friends. He wanted to get away.The one's trying to control him weren't having it
@curbozer Boomer You saw him play... I'm jelly. I'm 57 but I've known people older than me that got to see him... One of them was at Woodstock. The anniversary of his birth is upon us. Love u Jimi☺💝🎆 🌹
'..but the man needs to be remembered for his incredible spirit...' You're right. This is the essential point you highlight.
Some of this is odd, because from virtually everyone that knew Jimi. He was described as one of nicest, humble, kind, loving, caring, shy, human beings they ever met. In the few incidents he had otherwise, it was probably just the drugs, and the intense stress he was under. Particularly later in his life.
I agree☺
It is not "odd"...It is deliberate CIA defamation designed to cover-up his murder...It's a hit piece veiled in the trappings of pseudo-psychiatry...
I didn’t know he could be violent and he hit a girlfriend over the head with a vodka bottle causing a wound needing stitches. I’m quite surprised at that and I thought I knew quite a bit about him.
He was probably all those things until he drank and after he drank, he was none of those things. I’ve met many people like this.
@@Exiles800 lol if this were any average joe schmo, would you be saying the same thing? You nutjobs and your conspiracy theories....
Voodoo child (slight return) cranked up as loud as you can. Good lord above.....😵
Yyyyyep! 🤘
I agree. Magnificent song 🎸
Drive around town blasting it, is a vibe.
Analyzing Prince should be included as well.
Absolutely
It should mention him performing "Cream" with an acoustic guitar and saying "You know I wrote this while I was looking in the mirror, right? I'm serious".
Yeah prince would be an excellent analysis
I have always wondered if there is a correlation for mental illness with people who are geniuses. It seems as though musical and mathematical abilities manifest at a young age. Prince was certainly talented and probably a genius. Is there actually more drug usage by musicians in general? It is always sad and seemingly predictable and unsurprising when musicians die this way.
@@beeimaginative To be able to accomplish what Prince did-basically "invent" a whole new sound-takes being able to see beyond what "normal" people might see. Whether that includes drugs or not...maybe. I don't know. We know that Hendrix was into LSD and so while it would very difficult to actually perform under it, it would certainly inform his writing, compositions, etc. I often say that Sgt. Pepper wouldn't have been as "flowery" if it weren't for acid influencing their songs. Certainly Strawberry Fields is an "acid" song.
There have been some stories regarding Prince's drug usage, both from when he died and also stories from fellow musicians when I played up in L.A. in the 90s. He apparently stayed up for 2-3 days straight to finish mixing the Purple Rain album. He explains it as being under a deadline and then just getting into your work and also of being infused with a Spirit, implying a spiritual influence. Those that I knew up in L.A. looked at that story with an "I dunno, buddy" cause mixing for that long a time w/o a break can get reeaaalll hectic. The senses need a break.
There are stories of him lining his windows with aluminum foil to keep his room pitch black. Also, getting kicked out of the house and living with Andre Cymone and his parents...being a straight-A student...his treatment of women...etc. All would be good fodder for Dr. Grande.
Jimi Hendrix was indeed one of the greatest guitarists of all time!!!✨
Another sad ending.😔
Thank you for doing this video, I really enjoy when you analyze musicians and authors!❤️
Jimi.
@@iluvj50 Corrected.👍🏼
100% agree
His cover of Bob Dylan’s “All Along the Watchtower” got me into him. A legendary version that I think even Dylan liked better
He took too many barbiturates and didn’t have the waking up reflex we normally have to choking. Also, he was a creative person in a very controlling industry.
Absolutely agree with you. Can you imagine what we would have today if he lived? Man, was like Carlos Santana with that instrument, amazing and like no other..
Ross, you simply don't know what you are talking about...I did a radio show to a 3 million demographic in New York in 2019 that proved Jimi could not have died from the barbiturate...A good forensic detective would realize the massive amounts of vomit the ambulance men witnessed on Jimi was from forced drowning because the amount of secobarbital Jimi took was not capable of producing such profuse vomiting...I have seen the Vesparax barbiturate overdose case histories and none of the victims vomited like Jimi was witnessed doing...The unusual vomiting witnessed by the EMS personnel was what you would see from forced drowning, action - reaction by the brain stem motor reflexes...You can't claim any lack of gag reflex and reconcile it with the intense vomiting at the scene like you are doing...That intense vomiting is proof that Jimi was drowned early in to the ingestion period for the pills because of the obvious still-present vomiting reflex...Jimi's murder was covered-up real time by the British authorities (police, medical, and Inquest)...
@@Exiles800 Truth our dear friend. Gives me a cold shiver and makes me angry.
It happened to me with alcohol. My friend saved my life that time.
@@Exiles800 I know it's 1 year late but alcohol will do that. It happened to me. But they should have found alot in his bloodstream so I don't know what to think.
It was a time when excessive drug use was very common, especially in the world of rock and roll.
It makes sense, considering that he and Janis both died of overdoses in the same year
It’s just tragic though when these talented musicians die way too young. It becomes a what could’ve been situation in a way
Jimi was also near-sighted and would buy new Corvettes and crash them. I learned a lot about him from the biography Room Full of Mirrors. His buddy and bassist, Billy Cox, was in the Army with Jimi and played Woodstock with him.
Excellent book
Gosh, I hadn't realised he was so young when he died. How sad. He was a very talented man.
Hendrix was a brilliant guitarist and composer, no question -- as well as a charter member of the infamous so-called "Dead 27 Club" of rock and related musics, along with Brian Jones (Rolling Stones), Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison (the Doors) and Kurt Cobain (Nirvana), among other gifted artists dead at age 27.
Now that we've done Jimi, Can you do Prince?
Yes, Prince would be a a great choice!
Yes👏
YES, loved Prince and still do
I put a Jimi Hendrix magnet on my parents' refrigerator when I was a teenager. My dad was super-annoyed but he never took it down.
Hendrix, like many others, probably had a good work ethic. He just worked on what he wanted to work on. There is nothing easy about playing excellent guitar, it is hard work. and he was King. Drugs ruined him just as they ruin anyone who over use them.
Drugs do not 'ruin anyone who uses them'. That is such a ridiculous over simplification. And it's dangerous! If you say that to someone and they take your word and never again take any 'drug' they'll probably die very early.
Also if you tell people that recreational drug use will ruin them, they will see that that is not the case. And then whatever good advice you might have for them will be seen as silly hyperbole.
@@markbryant4641 ok druggie
@@idudheebsbzdudbdhddh I'm not a druggie.
@@markbryant4641 Thanks for altering what I said.... need a little hint? One word that changes that..... don't be an omitter.
@@markbryant4641 I have had many friends die from abusing drugs and other males who developed meth generated lupus. No community could logically have this many lupus cases out of nowhere. Especially a community of just a few hundred people, all male, all meth abusers, not even genetically related people.
I know I'm not the only one who recites the words in OCEAN along with Dr Grande.
Guilty!!😬🙂
Yes!
If I were a genius musician and 27, I'd be careful everywhere I go.
Id be less concerned with where I went, and more concerned with what I put in my body lol
And then that paranoia of being careful could be what gets you killed
Another interesting study of a famous personality. I agree that he was likely depressed at the time of his death. From what I have read, he was interested in developing a new style of music, & he felt that option was being limited, because the record company's wanted him to continue with his previous style of music. It's a shame that he died at such a young age. An amazing, brilliant guitarist, to say the very least.
I love what you said about "unlocking suppressed anger." I've always been suspicious of "they're such a nice person, but such an angry drunk."
Love your content, Dr. Grande! I'm happily surprised to click on this while wearing my favorite Hendrix t-shirt!
OH I'm jelly!! I love JH!!! His music really expressed the atmosphere of that generation!
Me too!
Hendrix playing the Star Spangled Banner at Woodstock - absolutely chilling, genius.
Amazing talent
I read & heard the really controversial thing about Jimi's death is the amount of alcohol in his body would have killed him long before he could have consumed all of it even with a huge tolerance. It's like it was poured down his throat even after he was dead. No one was supposed to talk about this. One man did & lost his job. Jimi had just made a huge enemy when he fired his manager who didn't hide the fact he was infuriated. Dr. G didn't mention this. Perhaps it was too controversial?
You are right. Dr G is great but this video was full of holes ... Sadly not the rabbit hole that would have presented a truthful picture😔
Correct
@curbozer Boomer Monica Danneman was a ditz. A lady named Susan ( can't remember who last name, a journalist who befriended him the last 3 yrs of his life and wrote a great book about him) interviewed Monica... She couldn't give a straight answer about how many Vesparex she had given Jimi that night
Yes, Jimmy Hendrix did suffer from depression; but you failed to mention that a big part if his sadness was due in a large part because of the struggle with the relationship between he and his father. His father did not approve of many of his choices in life. Also the many letters written to his father expressing his love and seeking approval from his dad was ongoing. These letters are of public access and in a documentary of Hendrix's life.
Jimi was murdered by his manager. The British guy Mike Jeffrey. He was British intelligence and had connections with the mob. Research that. He drowned Hendrix by pouring wine down his throat. This guy doesn't really know what he's saying on this video. Do your own research
@curbozer Boomer That's simply false and you are an idiot Curbozer...Jimi fired Jeffery 12 hours before his mysterious death with all the people involved lying...Kathy Etchingham got a British cop to interview those who were involved that night and he came back and told Kathy "They are all lying"...In most investigations that would trigger further pressing of the witnesses and police involvement however in Jimi's case the opposite occurred and a criminal British Attorney General lied and said there was no new evidence - even though his own investigation had just shown the main witness, Monika Dannemann, lied about everything she said happened that morning and the time of death was off by 6 hours...6 hours, in forensic terms, is a lifetime that completely invalidates the official cause of death but the Attorney General got around that by lying and shutting the investigation down...Then phony CIA psychiatrists come in and do hit pieces on Jimi's alleged psychological failings and divert people away from all this while blaming the victim...Jeffery killed Jimi because he would have done jail time once his books were scrutinized...Curbozer is a liar and Jeffery was witnessed flush with cash shortly after Jimi's death...He paid Jimi's father $250,000 in cash for his cut of the studio...
I’m sure someone has already said this, but Hendrix wrote the song Manic Depression because he had been repeatedly told by (I believe) his manager, “You sound like a manic depressive.” This certainly doesn’t corroborate a diagnosis, but does illustrate that those in Hendrix’s life thought he may have had the disorder.
I find his lyrics to be dark and existential in theme, haunting, and effective; "is it tomorrow or just the end of time?"
Thank you for this analyzes, Jimi Hendrix in my opinion was one of the greatest guitar players.
The word genius gets tossed around a lot…and is usually incorrectly attributed. This man however was a musical genius. He had perfect pitch, was self taught, was willing to take artistic risks, was witty, knew his sound and approach was unique and important, worked tirelessly at his craft. Ive never heard anyone who understands music say he was not talented even if they didn’t like his sound. He was a huge influence on the musical trends and fascinating to listen to and watch- and he didn’t need anything like pyrotechnics or CG to dress up his music. If you’ve ever seen Woodstock movie, you see the incredible awe and excitement in that tired, hungry, restless mob when he plays the anthem- he blew everybody away. It really was the Jimi Hendrix Experience. I’m so glad he, Jim Morrison, Eric Clapton, Mahavishnu, the Beatles, the Stones, King Crimson, Peter Gabriel, and Stevie Wonder were around when I was growing up. It was a gift I’ve never stopped appreciating.
I love all the ideas for videos. Thank you for all you do.
You are always very kind to the people you analyze. I think you must be a very good clinician. Your patients are fortunate.
His BS "analysis" is almost 50% factual error. Jimi had a tremendous work ethic, as evidenced by the hundreds of hours of pro- level recording he did in studios, touring almost constantly.
He was, in effect, worked to death.
Grande has no idea of the facts of this complrx case.
Please please please Dr Grande, can you analyse Kevin from "We Need to Talk About Kevin" and his mother? Other viewers have also requested this as well. Thanks
Saw that movie, it was really a creepy slow burn.
Omgosh, yes. Incredibly movie.
@@dirtysanchez941 And the book. I never saw the movie, but read the book.
someone requested that on another video. Ive seen it a few times. I think the mother is the most interesting
You gotta do Syd Barrett man, keep up with the vids💯
His legacy is the brilliant music left for the world to enjoy forever - I’m a big fan 💛
Dr. Grande, could you talk about the personality of counselors/mental health professionals?
I've been doing my own undergrad research on this topic and wanted to hear some of your thoughts.
Love your content, thanks!
I think he already has.
Hendix's manager, Michael Jeffreys, used to take lsd with him, (Jeffreys wasn't the 'lsd' type, it was specifically to try and get closer to him) hendix would finish a show, high, and Jeffreys would be there, 'hey man great show!!!! Look at this deal for all these concerts!!! Sighn here!! `
Jimi, not long before being penny less and scrounging around for work, extatic from comming off stage, not to mention high, would just sighn anything.
This ment that hendix, for the three years he was famous and up to his death (well, actually dates after his death) was obliged to honour these contracts amd gigs.
In that three year period, he had literally 3 weeks off.
The rest of the time he was wakimg up in identical hotel rooms, flying to the next job, trying to record amd compose as and when he could.
The free drugs from hangers on put him to sleep or gave him 'enegy' to work more.
Bob dylan, i take it, exaggerated his neck injury to get out of the same situation.
Hendrix was worked to death.
Jeffreys may well have been holding a joint and going 'out of sigjt man!'
But hendrix was left with no illusion that he would be left with nothing if he broke those comtracts.
So he was worked to death.
You dont play like him by taking drugs, he worked incredibly hard, before he was famous, studied music, musicians.
After he was famous, in my opinion, he still worked hard (see above) however i feel that the freedom to call the shots, coupled with the lifestyle, made it much harder to remain focused.
He would spend hours redoing the same part on a recording whereas his earlier work with his other manager, chas chandler, in london, was almost all first, second /earlu takes.
Of course, prince spent his life in the studio but he access to studios in his mid teens and had masterd it by 18 years old, if not earlier.
Him being late, not showing up, was, in my opinion, the lifestyle and being 'jimi hendix', he now could get away with that.
Infact, the night jimi passed, he was supposed to meet sly stone for a jam in London.
Mitch Mitchell, hendrix's drummer, glued to jimi for the past 3 years, was waiting and was enfatic in his statement that it was highly unusual and out of carracter to not turn up for music.
Due to the fact he was working much of those 3 years, it is very well documented where and when he was at places because he was involved with public events and the top studios he used kept diligent records.
Lastly, his mom callled him jonny but when he lived with his dad he was known as 'Jimmy'.
His band in Greenwich village before he went to the uk was called 'jimmy james and the blue flames',
He also tried 'Maurice james' as a stage name but all his friends before he was famous knew him as 'Jimmy'.
The name change to 'jimi' happemed when he went to England, a suggestion by chandler.
I really have been exited to find Dr Grande on TH-cam.
An. Incredible body of work that we now have access too.
I join the many others in thanking him. :)
(ps, as for the '27 club', certainly joplin, Morrison and hendrix had, even for those excessive days, ledgandery high tolerance for a variety of substances.
If you keep going to the edge your luck will run out eventually.
Stay safe out there!
Edited.
Jimmy even said, or implied, in interviews that he was over worked and was exhausted. ... once more another victim of exploitation.
Rock slavery.
Insightful & gives me nostalgia, remembering the 60s & 70s. Just as you described, going to concerts, seeing bands live, off-chances of getting backstage passes-it was all badly managed CHAOS back then. Musicians were forced to “tour” the country (several countries) in those days so that the records sales would boost. Then sometimes jumping flights the same night to the next place!! You hadda be YOUNG & the 30-40-yr.-old mgrs. notoriously took advantage of the “talent.” Joplin, Hendrix, the Stones, Steppenwolf, Chicago, Earth, Wind, Fire, LTD, Graham Central, Rufus-all of them were “the big kids” to me. I was going to be just like them when I grew up!! Good looking back on your part! Tragic loss Tragic traditions. Miss The Experience & all Truly Great Bands.
At home they called him " Buster "
@@andrehof7876 😂😂🤣 And I bet at home he was one, too! Better than being called “Lil Rapscallion,” though. 😊
Ohhhh I was waiting for this one Dr!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
I've been waiting since 1983...
The Wind Cries Grande.
lol
Jimi was a very kind man and sensitive artist. he was confronted with a lot of surrounding criticism for his independent way of dress and thinking. His music was that of a genius . His lyrical writing was poetic description to the deepest sense. I am grateful for our brief but destiny laden meeting and his work .
The fact that I let the political ads run without clicking off them is a testament to how much I appreciate Dr. Grande's sense of balance. Normally after 800 I try to protect myself from emotional and intellectual triggers, and nothing trips them like contemporary politics.
Another excellent topic! Dr. Grande, you are certainly improving my downtime as I work from home and stay pretty isolated due to COVID-19. I appreciate these interesting takes.
Dude you are killing it!
What a brilliant talent.
I love his music!!!
R i p - jimi!
☮️❤️
The very reason I don’t drink is because I have a high level of suppressed anger. I stay on top of my emotions, by staying sober. Keeps me problem free. Surprisingly, I feel like there is a general low level of understanding of how substances effect people, and with addiction. As a person who studies addiction and works in addiction treatment, I’m still interacting with a lot of people who don’t understand why someone who doesn’t have substance use disorder (me) would choose not to consume alcohol because they want to stay in control of their emotions. With so much information out there, it’s surprising how little so many people know.
Saw Hendrix play twice in the late 60's . Once at The Oakland Coliseum and once at The Santa Clara County fairgrounds. AWESOME
I'm jelly
Cool! can you do Keith Moon next?
Another interesting analysis by Dr. Grande! Hendrix was a sublime talent, one of the greats.
I love Jimi Hendrix's music & guitar playing he's fire! 🔥🔥🤩😍🎸 🎵🎵🎵 Rest in peace.💐😑
Jimi Hendrix was young also at a time, when drug use was ubiquitous - not an excuse but just another factor to consider, and Jimi perhaps had some major issues, concerning the death of his mother, no closure, which is sad and heartbreaking.💔
@@Zeldarw104 IKR!!! Tortured souls need SOME kind of relief!
@@Zeldarw104 His mother had him at 16 and she actually died from cirrhosis of the liver. Yeah she was a raging alcoholic. His father drank too. So Jimi inherited that trait for real. I have the biography of Jimi called A Room Full Of Mirrors.
Great vid. I read an account of a pub owner in London who hosted the then unknown Hendrix at an early try-out gig. Apparently he was polite and well-mannered, but the volume was so loud that the glass shattered.
Wow
Jimi and Dr.Grande. Legendary duo.
Jimi says: Hey Dr. Grande. Hold my can of lighter fluid. I got a gimmick to do.
I can see it.
purple haze!
Dr, Grandma, left out so much information about Hendrix, He's trying to turn Hendrix into a Mental health bad situation, Who wouldn't be depress if you knew you were being Rob of your Money and you might not make it to your 28 Birthday and you have a lot of Snake's around You that want leave you alone, Hendrix knew he was in Danger that last night of his life....
Personally i think we all have agressivity, kindness, supressed agressivity, frustrations, anxiety, suppressed feelings inside of us. To learn how to deal with them and how to balance them is healthy and important. For some sports help, others yoga, others having a loving night with their partner etc or a bit of it all. Life itself creates a bit of everything every day.
And i think substance use frees this of course, but not in such a positive way. It does Make it more clear and brings it to the surface. The danger is when the substance use is so high that all the suppressed and inconscious feelings come out in an uncontrolled way.
Famous people like Jimmy hendricks are under a lot of pressure, which on its own creates a lot of suppressed feelings and few time to get by and relax. Not everybody deals well with this.
Also he was still very young and
at that time, and on top of it music of the sixties were almost a marriage with substance use and alcohol.
So to me the epoc and ideas were inspiring, but the famous were not protected in any way. For some it meant their young ending.
I really loved their music, specially janis joplin and jimmy hendricks, their talents were hughe, i think. They just weren t protected and guided well.
Luckily not all of them have and had such a bad ending.
Some people get easily over this overpessure and over substance use. But the danger is always right behind the corner, specially if noone guides u and protects u in the process. Everyone is different.
I really think things around famous people should change a bit, and their private life and resting moments shohld be more protected.
My little thoughts on this.
Interesting analysis of the best quitarist of all times. Dr grande the case of Marvin Gaye would be a great video. Great talent, fame, women and children but with a horrible father who ended up killing Marvin.
They say Marvin Gaye was one of the nicest people you'd want to meet
🎸Jimi Hendrix: I felt that he was the greatest and most creative guitarist I have ever heard. Their were those who idolized him. R.I.P Jimi.
@curbozer Boomer Hendrix's level of talent as a musician has been acknowledged by many from the 1960's on.
Been waiting for this one! Thank doc!
I would love your opinions on HOWARD HUGHES, one of the oddest man who ever lived. Please Please Dr. Grande with sugar on top💖
Yes. This would be fascinating.
Would love to see an analysis of any or all the characters in BOJACK HORSEMAN.
It's an amazing show that deals with issues like depression, suicide, abortion, childhood trauma, substance abuse etc. in a way I have never seen before on tv. really worth checking out.
I agree
Yes!!!!!!!
Brian Wilson would be good for a video
I have a suggestion. Could you analyse Abraham Lincoln? He was a truly interesting individual often described as extremely melancholic.
Love the channel Doctor.
Would love to see a video on:
Chris Benoit
Tony Soprano
Budd Dwyer
L.Ron Hubbard
Never give up!!!! I'm with u on Benoit. 👋👋👋
Analyze Albert Einstein and issac Newton
Thank you Dr.Todd Grande for this very insightful video on Jimi Hendrix. During quarantine in 2020, I got into his music, bought 2 of his albums, and learned how to play "Hey Joe" on guitar. I agree that Jimi was not nearly as dysfunctional as Jim Morrison. He simply drank too much and died accidentally. He actually was pretty smart for his age. I didn't know what maniac depression was until I was 40. I feel sorry for him dying so young. I am lucky that I quit drinking and smoking when I was 35. I am free!
Great analysis once again Dr. Grande. I’m hoping one day you will take my request I’ve been asking for of an analysis of Prince☔️. So many mysterious aspects of his life. How he reacted after the loss of his and Mayte’s son, how confident he appeared and at the same time shy. He was a genius and of the greatest.
Yet another great talent lost to booze and drugs. Such a waste. What Jimi could do to a guitar, remember self taught, was astounding. His natural ability gave such pleasure. I watch videos of him just focusing on his hands working his guitar, his genius is undeniable. Thanks Dr. Grant.
You should do Mary Kay Letourneau. Background very interesting, especially her family (father).
He may have... check his video catalogue
@Lori Anne You are right. 3 Months ago. I'll have to watch that one.
Excellent, Dr. Grande! My favorite musician of all time!! 💕 Thank you again for the variety of personalities.
On conscientiousness: He was a guitar virtuoso with exceptional technical skill and a
prolific song writer who released 3 groundbreaking albums between
1967-1968. These things would be hard without a strong work
ethic (work-a-holism is putting it lightly) and he was a neat freak (according to one
girlfriend). He was also famously a perfectionist in the studio to a
point where he was "driving people mad".
Jimi Hendrix cover of Bob Dylan song, "All Along the Watchtower" - Yes.
Hey, I did NOT know Jimi Hendrix played with Tina Turner! That's amazing to imagine.
(In that era, it would have been the Ike and Tina Turner Revue, not Tina on her own.)
@curbozer Boomer Thank you for the info. It's similar to what a school superintendent told me once: back in the day, he was on an airplane and members of the Ike and Tina Turner Revue were passengers on the flight.
When he said this, I was in awe, right? Then he added emphatically, "Yeah, Ike was a real a$$ h le."
Ike could not get along with many people. Good musician though. He would have benefitted from therapy, imo.
Great commentary and again I learned a lot about someone I thought I knew. Have a great night Dr Grande!!
I loved & still love Jimi & listen to his music. Thank you as always for this analysis, Dr. Grande.💖
Even though I know his music so well, I know hardly anything about his background. I knew someone who supposedly lived w him in the Beverly Hills Hotel for a while.
Can you do more videos over Machiavellianism, like how someone would have those traits or anything that you think would be worth sharing? I find it very interesting and there’s not a lot about of information about it.
Thanks so much for another great video profile. I really learned a lot. The comments are great, too. My 22-year-old son loves playing his music.
Phenomenal piece of work ! Thank you , Dr. Grande. X
You should do a video on Dr. Todd Grande. He's a therapist who makes TH-cam videos analyzing athletes, murderers, musicians, but especially criminals. He always starts out his videos by saying that he's only speculating, not diagnosing. His videos are informative and he has a dry sense of humor.
I always look forward to and enjoy Dr Grande's videos, and this is no exception 👍 Really interesting and thought provoking...
Dr. Grander, would you consider analyzing Anthony Bourdain? It would be very interesting.
All the musicians that died at 27 i find it very strange the coinsidence is uncanny
He was a massive user of LSD too, apparently he bought huge amounts into the UK from America in his guitar case.
I recall an interview with Lemmy , before he joined Hawkwind, he was a roadie for Hendrix. He would send Lemmy off to score acid for him.
On one occasion Lemmy got 10 "hits". He gave Lemmy 3 of them, then took the other 7 himself , all at once !
It's really cool you doing videos on musicians keep it coming.
Can you please do Andy Kaufman.
Please do "Janis!!"
please, please, please, oh Yes! I need that one!!!
I would be interested in hearing your analysis of vincent van gough
I love how you bring all these so-called legends Down to earth so that we can see them as normal humans
So called ??? You obviously haven’t listened to him. You’ll never bring Hendrix down to earth. He’s up there with the gods.
It's amazing how you are able to produce so many videos of such quality in such a short span of time. You must have thought about this stuff for a very long time! Anyways, great content, very interesting and informative!
I'm sure you've seen the movie no country for old men. Can you give us your analysis of Anton Chigurh?
Great idea
Very interesting topic, loving your analysis, as always.
At the end of his last show in England - Isle of Wight 1970, he dropped his guitar on the stage and walked off head bowed. Looked tired and fed up. Drugs had damaged his mental health and physical appearance. Incredible performer, however!
That guitar is on display at London's Hard Rock museum
@curbozer Boomer thanks for the info.
U should do chris cornell
Would definitely love to hear an analysis of Cornell. Layne Staley and Scott Weiland as well
Good idea
Omg yes, loved Chris since SUPERUNKNOWN came out..✨
You gotta keep in mind, Hendrix was a kid. I am absolutely not the same man that I was in my 20s.
Dr. Grande, your insights are deeply valued. I'm learning a lot from you. I have had some severe mental health issues in my family. Learning & understanding gives me peace. Very grateful for you. Thanks so much!
I wish you’d mentioned his violence against his partners.
27 is so young. He made his mark though. It’d been cool to see him reach his true potential sober.
Jimi is someone that once I knew about his life, I could not leave It aside, It is a very unique life, regardless the same type of stupid death situation that other rockstars also experienced. We clearly can see, If someone really look into it, in interviews, he was suffering from some emotional pain, some kind of contradiction inside, that the drug abuse shown to light. There were some issues with the manager, including even frighten Jimi's life. Disrespect on someone can cause serious psychological problems He felt like an object in some way and that also could cause some violent tendencies, specially when on alchool/drugs. I like your video, you analysed him respectfully and that's good for me. Good work Doc.
Love 💕 the yellow shirt! Also, Dr Hunter did Jimmy on his show Autopsy.
PLEASE analyze Sylvia Plath and Ted Hughes Separately!! Love you're videos!!
Another Washingtonian! Thank you, Dr. Grande! I LOVED JH's talent. What a history maker this gentleman was! What a shame he had a substance issue, but it is possible that his being high actually led to some elevated level of creativity,... or maybe not; like so many other greatly talented ones, he was apparently a tortured soul. My favorite drummer, John Henry Bonham, also had an alcohol problem and died because of it. The time of death question is an irritating puzzler; that woman might have either been a liar or high,... or maybe both. The O.C.E.A.N. results are interesting; it might be interesting to compare his to the results of the others in the "27 club."
Todd's comment about the difficulty of diagnosis when there is habitual chemical inebriation seems correct: not much scope for diagnosis, except: severe mental illness normally manifests well before the age of 27
I was told 28 is the normal age for bipolar dx. I've seen this in a lot of literature I've read on bipolar illness.
Thank you for talking about what makes a mean drunk. My dad was a mean drunk, and my husband is mean when he drinks brown liquor. So suppressed anger makes a lot of sense. Anyway, I think that Jimi was a MF'n guitar genius. 🎸 I can't think of anyone better, except for maybe Jimmy Page. Maybe you could do a video on the drummer Ginger Baker? Yeah, Ginger is my favorite drummer of all time. 😃
JIMMY PAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!
Ginger Baker would be a good one... He was out there
Yes. Dr. Grande! Let's explore the "mean drunk" in depth. Please! Had 2 for parents. Really would appreciate in depth details on this subject.
So many videos! I’m not complaining 🙌❤️
Thanks for the video Doctor💜
Hi Dr. Grande! Thank you again.
