He's another very excellent Hendrix enthusiast teacher that is worth checking out if you haven't already.

the half step lower tuning is essential to remain true , , maybe you've noticed how most renditions of Cash's Folsom Prison never sound quite true to the original and that's because he used 1st fret capo and sang it in the key of F , , big difference ! Thanks for the pointers : )

Hendrix maybe the most influential guitarist in history (so far)

I know what you mean by 'the light went on'! I was into Metallica and Dokken, basically 80's heavy guitar music and knew of Hendrix (of course) but never was too impressed. All the sudden I got Axis Bold as Love and when I heard what Hendrix was doing, it basically erased everything I was into before! When you have that epiphany with Hendrix (had several, the Mozart one was the most powerful) it moves you up a level!! Very nice breakdown.

I pretty much went through the same thing.. knew about Jimi in high school and could play Purple Haze, etc.. but my main interest was metal, Malmsteen and Macalpine, etc. Then after graduating in 87, about halfway through college all of a sudden, it "clicked" and the beauty of Jimi's music opened up to me and I became crazy obsessed, seeking out anything about him that I could find and listen to. I still know so many of his concert recordings by heart note for note. I'm pretty familiar with all the techniques you show in this video but I have to say you lay it out so friggin well and explain it so succinctly. I can only imagine how much more quickly those ideas would fall under my fingers had I seen your lesson back in the day instead of figuring it out slowly over many years. Awesome vid man.

Then I looked through your past posts and saw so many cool guitarists mentioned. Then I watched more videos and said “this guy is REALLY GOOD!” I really like what you’re doing. Only think I wish you’d do- and I know this isn’t the ideal way to learn, but it works for me- is to somehow provide tabs for these licks that you breakdown. Things go by quickly and it’s be cool to have a visual reference. Thanks for what you do!

Then, like you say along came Hendrix(from another planet) from America, the huge country with lots of the musicians I loved Sinatra, Charlie Parker, Coltrane, Miles Davis. So many, I haven't got the space. Could you do a video on the Green Manalishi and Peter Green? Pretty please?
