x Axl Rose x Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 Im not a fan of his, but I do know he is good, when i was young when ever anyone played air guitar they were doing a jimi not a Slash, not an Angus! A Jimi! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drops_of_jupiter Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 (edited) GO HERE FOR FOOTAGE> http://www.jimihendrix.dk/index.php?lang=d...eoer.php&ident=I really Hendrix's style and originality. Ok, I adore the man!! B) I think he's sucha a cool cat! I really don't understand why he's 'overrated' though. Will someone please give me some insight into this? I mean, I know he can be regarded as a 'sloppy player' (which I would agree on) but apart from that I don't see the problem with Hendrix. By 'overrated' you don't mean 'bad' do you? Because he wasn't a bad player.Tell me one song which you think is overrated and why.edit: go to the 7th video clip down ('hey joe') to see him playing with his teeth and playing the guitar on the back of his head Geez, he's amazing.

Appetite18 Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 I more admire Hendrix than really absolutely love his music. There are individual songs that I absolutely love like Purple Haze(Duh), Wind Cries Mary, Red House, Hey Joe, Manic Depression, Fire, All Along The Watchtower, and Voodoo Child(Slight Return). I find stuff like Third Stone From The Sun and Voodoo Chile very impressive but they are not the kind of stuff I would listen to often. I do think he is one of the greatest guitarists and probably the most influential. I actually feel the same way about Clapton too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
