I keep watching this video and wondering how the fuck he keeps his consentration but I cant even spell that word so I give up.

Short answer he is the real king.

I love Jimi too. Have you seen his Woodstock Villanova Junction? By far my favorite live performance... They unfortunately leave out the killer improvisational intro though...

Would be somthing to see to bad it was before my time. What I dont get is how did the older generation get music like this yet they are the least sympathetic? Its realy quite wierd that all those politicians we see today that are so agianst the way of life we live where living the dream at one point and dont want us to achieve what they acheived so they can hold themselves above us.

I always thought one day an artist would bring multi-generations together to realize we are not all that different.

Who knows Jimmy Hindrix was prolly that guy but the good ones always die before the message is clear.

At the end of his life, he was working on more progressive modal jazz type styles. There's great video of him at the Isle of Wight Festival where Jimi & Miles performed within hours of each other. I can't find the live Hey Baby that Jimi did at Isle of White, but I love to hear them both improvise over the same base lines... You can get a pretty good idea where their music was about to go.

Also, regarding Jimmy Page. Yes, he was excellent at playing box scales that conveniently fit into blues progressions... But comparing what he did with Hendrix isn't really fair to Page. He's great but no genius.

Dude I cant even play one I try everytime at the store but GOD DAMNIT the dings and tings throw me off on the 12 string sence I play more by ear. I wanna go buy one and practice but I beleive that it will sit just like the banjo I was gonna teach my self to play now it just sits looking cool.

Maybe in a couple months ill go buy one they just intrest me would be cool to play one my ex-girl used to make me so pissed because she could play the damn banjo and I couldnt. She could rip on a banjo and never even played one but a couple times. I mean fuck she didnt even play guitar she messed around on a keyboard like 18 hours a day I just dont get it man.
