JIMI HENDRIX IS MY BIGGEST HERO , HAD HE LIVED HE'D HAVE KICKED DRUGS AND BECOME THE WORLDS MOST SOUGHT AFTER SESSION GUITAR PLAYER , HE would've totally collaborated w/ Miles Davis (it was in the wsorks before just he died)... Miles had a great amount of respect and love for Jimi... HE WOULDA MOVED ONTO JAZZ , KEEPING HIS CHOPS IN SHAPE AND GETTING BETTER ALL THE TIME... TO YEE WHO DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE TRUE VIRTUOSITY OF JIMI HENDRIX , TRY AND FIGURE OUT THE SOLOS ON AXIS BOLD AS LOVE... PARTICULARLY "SPANISH CASTLE MAGIC" ... AND JIMI HENDRIX IS W/OUT A DOUBT ONE OF THE GREATEST RYTHYM GUITAR PLAYERS EVER (a fact that is often outshined by his solos and artistic feedback) JIMI WAS CONSTANTLY INVERTING CHORDS THAT HAVE A SORT OF IMPOSSIBLE "HOW'D HE DO THAT ???" SOUND QUALITY !!! THE FINAL MIX OF THE 3 EXPERIENCE ALBUMS SOMEHOW KIND OF COVER UP SOME OF THE FINER VIRTUOSO POINTS OF THE MANY BRILLIANT SOLOS... TO GET THE REAL DEAL ON JIMI HENDRIX , YA GOTTA DIG "MACHINE GUN" LIVE ON NEW YR'S EVE 1969 AT THE FILLMORE !!! (I HAVE NEVER BEEN WITNESS TO ANY OTHER GUITAR PLAYER BEING ABLE TO MAKE A POLITICAL STATEMENT W/ A GUITAR)... IN "MACHINE GUN" JIMI HENDRIX , SUMS UP THE OUTRO OF PEACE AND LOVE (woodstock)AND THE INTRODUCTION (altamont) OF YR'S OF VIOLENCE TO COME... at first ya think to yourself , "well he must've done it unconciously , but then after a few listens you kinda think "but maybe he actually meant for it to be so important" !!! THE BLACK ELVIS , THE VOODOO CHILE , THE MAN WHO CHANGED THE WORLD , JAMES MARSHALL MACHINE GUN JIMI HENDRIX ... HIS GENIUS IS TOO RARE AND TOO GREAT TO FATHOM...somebody , anybody , name 1 just 1 guitar player who has left more of an impact on the history of the electric guitar !!!
