Hey everyone! We hope everyone enjoyed some hendrix! My dad wanted to show me a performance from a legendary guitarist! Definitely an amazing ability to play with his teeth! Subscribe if you haven’t already! We are so close to 5k! Also, don’t forget to follow our new instagram for sneak peeks and stuff (link in description) if you haven’t already! Enjoy! 😁🔥👍🤘

I saw Jimi play live 3 times(Hunter College, Singer Bowl, and Lincoln Center), and I met him at a club one night. He was otherworldly! He was one of a kind, and he was only on top from 1967 to his death in 1970. He only did 3 albums in his life. He was a prophet, and Prince, and Stevie Ray were his disciples.

4 years is all he spent at the top, he was in his prime when he went.

Great job guys, your face was priceless there kid! Hilariously appropriate, Jimi surprised you, imagine the folks born in 1930 at that time! Jimi was a cultural force. Played in backing bands for ppl like Little Richard and The Isley Brothers before being discovered in New York, taken to England and forming his band there. They had 3 studio albums, were a group from 1966-1970, and toured HUNDREDS of shows. Never stopped touring except to record an album. Jimi's first show back in the US was Monterey Pop where he burned the guitar at the end of Wild Thing (check that out!) Even though Jimi died after only 4 years as a superstar, he recorded A LOT of material. So much that they have released several re-mastered albums of old tapes, one of which being what his 4th album was going to be (First rays of the new rising sun). It was mostly finished, and Eddie Kramer, his original engineer, did a great job on all of these projects (there are really cool behind the scenes videos with him going through jimi's songs on the mixing board). There is so much great music from him, been listening to him since I was like 14 everyday, never gets old. Pure in the moment emotion in those songs. Rock on!

JIMI HENDRIX IS THE #GOAT THE BEST EVER AND NO ONE IS EVEN A CLOSE SECOND

So awesome to see dads passing the rock and roll torch to their sons. Now, he seems ready, ease him into Pink Floyd.

Jimi's my all time favorite. Love him.

He was around through the early 60's as a session player for the Isley Brothers and Little Richard. But he was talked into doing a solo career. That career was from 1966 to his death in 1970. He had 3 studio albums and one live album. He also had 16 singles that most still get played on classic rock stations regularly.

It's nice to see a father and son that are in to music like you two and a father that shows as much interest as you do I hope you never lose that closeness with son

He was famous in America from 1967 till his death in 1970. He started playing with Little Richard here but then went to England and thats where he was really discovered

Hendrix played for many years. One stint was in Little Ricahrd's band. Under his own name he spanned 1967-1970. He made four studio albums.

Hendrix was no mere mortal,a rock god and genius,who bridged the gap,from blues,which later would evolve into metal🎸🎸🎸,Hendrix was a virtuoso 🎸,he influenced everyone who took up the Axe..,This is when he took the great rock group to school at the Monterey rock festival,he showed Pete Townsend who was boss,he played with his teeth ,and behind is back as way to show his complete power over the instrument,he died at 27,actually he was prolific,Are you experienced?,axis bold as love,and,electric ladyland was his main albums,all great ablbums,Jimi Hendrix Was a gifted musician but never arrogant,a bit shy in fact,I know this from biographies and documentaries of that era,like Paul McCartney and other great artists all appreciated his artistry..

This Monterey performance (his first real concert in the US as an unknown) was in June '67, he died in Sept. of '70. Went to London in late '66 and blew away Clapton, Beck, et. al. Yes, it's hard to get videos on YT to listen to, there are some live performances (no video) that are good. Purple Haze at Atlanta Pop is video and can be watched. Audio only check out I Don't Live Today at the LA forum in 1969. Glad to see the birth of another Hendrix fan!

Aw, this is beautiful, that’s how parents need to spend time with their kids. Very nice video reaction. Very good dad right there!

now you just seen the best guitarist that ever lived. R.I.P Jimmy.

This is great parenting. Teaching your son the music I grew up with. Kudos to you sir! (and your son too).

Rule breaker, shelf taught, built his own guitar, reverse right hand, upside down

Jimi died at age 27. Released 4 albums in his lifetime. Totally revolutionized the guitar. Playing with the teeth is an old blues guitar trick. So was playing behind the head. T-Bone Walker did it before Jimi I know.Jimis life story is fascinating. He was self-taught.

The greatest! You should listen to Crosstown Traffic, If 6 were 9, Machine Gun, The wind cries Mary, Foxy Lady, Fire, All along the Watchtower, Stone free, Castles made of sand, and Red House. That should keep you busy a little while. Rock on guys...

Next you should play his performance of "Wild Thing" from Monterey Pop Festival where he lights his guitar on fire. Give your son a good education on Hendrix; buy the albums Axis Bold As Love and Electric Ladyland. You'll never be sorry. I was lucky to have seen him when I was 14, in 1968. Hendrix played with other bands in the early 60's after he left the service, including the Isley Brothers, King Curtis and Little Richard. He became famous (over in England) in 1967 and played until his death in 1970 at age 27.

I regret that I only got to see Jimi twice before he died. What a loss. ✌️☮️

I totally enjoy watching young people experience Jimi Hendrix the first time especially a live performance like this one!! I haven't really scrolled through the comments but might I suggest if you're looking for a good live song by Jimi Hendrix would be his Woodstock performance of the national anthem Star-Spangled Banner!! IT IS EPIC!!! I'm going to look through some of your other reactions to see whether or not you actually did do that song but if you haven't I suggest you give it a shot you won't be disappointed!!

What a performance!! I have that whole concert on DVD "Live at Monteray"...it's excellent! You guys have to react to Jimi Hendrix- Voodoo Child (Slight return). Probably my favourite song from him!

An education. Jimi could play with his teeth, over his head, behind his back, and between his legs effortlessly. He learned these skills at gigs he attended around Seattle, from other artists who were doing the same. Jimi played a standard Fender stratocaster guitar reversed and strung to play left handed. In so doing the stringing was reversed and the control knobs were in the wrong position. Jimi could play bass and acoustic guitar (6 and 12 string), in addition to all the forms of standard electric guitar, and he could play guitar right handed too but preferred left handed playing. He cut his teeth touring on the Chitlin' Circuit in the USA, playing backing for the likes of The Isley Brothers, Little Richard, and Ike and Tina Turner. Jimi was discovered by Chas Chandler, the bassist of The Animals, at the Cafe Wha' in Greenwich Village and brought over to the UK where he formed The Jimi Hendrix Experience with Noel Redding (bass) and Mitch Mitchell (drums). He recorded three albums, these being: Are You Experienced; Axis Bold as Love; and Electric Ladyland. Prince, SRV, and to some extent Kravitz were just his disciples. Jimi was doing what they did and more twenty years before them. Jimi was a disciple of Eric Clapton, and one of his conditions to come to the UK was that he meet Clapton. Chas had no problem with that because he knew Eric personally. Both Clapton and Hendrix were both self taught on guitar. To experience Jimi's guitar playing range you need to listen to The Watchtower. This is a Bob Dylan song that Jimi played a cover of. On hearing the cover Bob rang Jimi up and told him that this was now his song, and that his cover was the definitive version of the song. Bob never played The Watchtower on an acoustic guitar again. To see how good Jimi was you need to watch Jimi Hendrix, Johnny B Goode, Berkeley and Jimi Hendrix Lulu Show, Cream Tribute, Full Version (where Jimi has his guitar talk the words to Sunshine of Your Love). To see Jimi perform a slow and beautiful song try The Wind Cries Mary (Stockholm). This song written after a bust up with his then girlfriend Kathy Mary Etchingham. Other fantastic Hendrix tracks include: Purple Haze, Foxy Lady, Fire, Crosstown Traffic, Little Wing (instrumental) etc etc. If you want to experience a full Hendrix gig, there is one on You Tube in Stockholm in black and white. Here he starts out with Howlin' Wolfs Killing Floor, a favorite warm up song at many gigs. You'll note too that Jimi greets the draft dodgers, because he was against the Vietnam War. Is there a track that is little known on which Hendrix plays? Try There Ain't Nothin' Wrong With That, and listen how Jimi makes the guitar talk by making it wail out. The singer is Noel Redding, Jimi's bassist in The Experience. Again it's on You Tube. Was Jimi so good? Experienced by me on multiple occasions I can say personally that Jimi was the best performing artist on guitar that I have ever seen in my life. Beyond incredible. Simply phenomenal. Jimi was six blocks up the street from every other artist musically. Note how Jimi plays rhythm and melody both at THE SAME TIME! He died on 18th September 1970 aged 27 from an overdose of Vesperax, a very strong analgesic. Had he lived, with advances in guitars and guitar sound effect electronics, the sky would have been the limit for Jimi. He would have created sounds beyond anything ever known to man. Adored by other guitarists including Jeff Beck, Santana, BB King, Clapton and so many others. When Jimi died I wept. The greatest musical loss of a generation. Totally and utterly irreplaceable. Many have tried, and many have failed. There are many very good guitarists out there, but there is only one Jimi Hendrix. As Jack Bruce of Cream pointed out, Jimi was some sort of force of nature. Jimi was beyond special. Now you know why your dad and me are so very into this man. It is hard not to be into a genius. You think this was good? Ha, ha! Next play: Jimi Hendrix, Johnny B Goode, Berkeley. Prepare to be amazed at what a single man can do on electric guitar.

Great reaction. Check out The Wind Crys Mary. Never was much into him at the time, but have learned to appreciate him over the decades. An amazing quitarist!

Dude I wish we were neighbors,I've been into Jimi since 1970,I could tell you all kindsa stuff about Jimi. YOU young Lad,you're expression and surprise are priceless. I loved seeing this lad enjoying this,being shocked by some of what Jimi was doing!! Ha. awesome Dad ,Son connection and choice of song to review. if you've not seen Jimi Hendrix do Machine Gun Live at the Filmore,get that DVD from JimiHendrix.com. also listen to song called "Midnight" its on the album "war hero's", or more recently The Album/CD "South Saturn Delta"...be ready for your mind to be blown,pup...Coz Jimi was and still is flipping amazing!! Imitated a ton of times, they'll only ever be just one and we got'um him for 4 yrs straight!! least we got that much. Play on Jimi. Oh BY the way there would be no Robin Trower or Stevie Ray Vaughan were it not for Jimi Hendrix. in my opinion and experience its sooo abundantly clear that they ripped Jimi off Big time. SRV used to dress up for Halloween as Hendrix.... I'm so over it. get your thing together! your own sound. Santana did it,Eric Clapton,Jeff Beck,Frank Zappa and a slew of other guitarist did!! Get your own thing together!!

Thank God for Jimi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!°°°°°°°

There was never ever a better guitar player. His guitar was part of his body.

How great was the reaction from 'Son.' You just knew it was coming. Gone waaaay too soon, Jimi was ahead of his time. Give a listen to his solo of The National Anthem...classic.

Have only listened to his big songs as well, mainly because they are the ones my older sister listened to. Jimi Hendrix is right up there on my list of the best guitarists. Thanks you two for doing this! Stay safe & stay strong 💜💜

He is definitely on the list of one of the best if not the best guitarist ever. He's played behind his head with his teeth he even played his guitar on fire once. And to you S it is amazingly awesome that you are into all of this old music your pops is doing something right.

It is a pleasure to see how new generation reacts to Jimi, and look, i have listen this particularly song from Monterey at about 13 and still i got chills when i hear or see him playing, anyway this "Hey Joe" was perfect under every point of view, drum fantastic, bass good, Jimi super inspired and the sound of the guitar absolutely the best.

My favorite Hendrix cover was All along the Watch Tower . The studio cut was so far ahead of it's time . He was never able to reproduce it live because the technology was just not there for live performances. This song was a Bob Dillian tune ,but it was Hendrix who brought it to life. There is quite a story on the recording of this tune which started in London and ended up at Electric Lady Land in New York. The quality of this track was fantastic and still holds its own today

Greatest guitarist of all time imo

kids reaction is priceless, thats just good parenting!

When I saw this on my home feed I was like I Have to see this 😂 hendrix is amazing great reaction guys

This is a cover of a Billy Roberts song. Billy was a Folk singer in the 60’s.

Amazing video, brought a tear to my eye if i'm honest.

Jimi has a ton of songs. He created an amazing amount of music in his time. Allot there for you to experience.

I love these reactions!😄. Hendrix legend

I love you're guys reaction!

His version of Wild Thing same show burning his guitar

Love y'all reaction.👍👍👍👍

Ahhhh, you have been experienced! Jimi is the top of the pile for me!! Sadly a lot of his stuff doesn't survive on YT. So many good songs and video footage you could react to by THE MAN!

Just so you guys know, even though he was only around for a few years and only released a handful of albums, he actually recorded A LOT of songs. He spent a lot of time recording in the studio. And there have been several albums (or cds) that have come out since his death that contain those songs. So there is a substantial amount of Hendrix material out there.

Hahahaha usually im mad about pausing during a solo but dad covered it good by saying hisnson wasnt ready for it lol. Good stuff

I love you guys relationship man forreal and if that’s your dad man he’s done a great job!

Jimi lived with his guitar, always in his hands.

Hey pops, you’re truly blessed to have such an awesome kid...getting him into timeless music like this will help carry him through life. My dad did it for me as a very young kid and it’s one of the greatest gifts he ever gave to me. Please get him on some Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers! Best overall rock band of all time imo...they only get better the older I get, I’m 36 now, seems like I was 20 last week...where the hell has time gone...

The best ,the coolest .

LIVE AT MONTEREY POP FESTIVAL 1967

Great reaction guys! Your son wasn't ready for him playing with his mouth. But his face was priceless. Love it. Keep it up guys. Cheers from Green Bay. Ps. You guys should try a full lyric video version of 'Rapture' by Hurt and of course, 'Poet and the Pendulum' by Nightwish live at Wembley (for most impact, do some research on the song).

The parts that I really liked were: -his reaction to Jimi playing with his teeth and saying "I wasn't ready for that"...nobody at Monterey was. Nobody in the world. Even today, with all outrageous things in pop music (thanks to Jimi too!) He can still shock a young man. Think what he did to teenagers' mind back then! This is the most appropriate and true reaction to Jimi. -the point where you said "I knew he was good, but I didn't think he was SO good". That was my reaction when I was 12 and saw "Rock me" from Monterey at the beginning of "A Film about Jimi Hendrix". I never listened to him before, but that saturday night of 2003 that dvd changed my life for ever. Also, I love the fact you and your dad are doing this kind of videos together, it is a really cool thing! Stay safe!

SRV can and did both the teeth and behind the head as well as behind the back (if you watch enough of him live on youtube you will see him do all the tricks). He was a major Hendrix head...

Try Amon Amarth, any song. You'll love it!!

Good old Jimi Hendrix. He was so good with the guitar rifts. What about: Voodoo Chile. Crosstown traffic. Foxy lady. Just play the album Electric Ladyland or watch him at Woodstock.

awesome performance & great reaction , check out/ Jimi Hendrix the Wind crys Mary, thanks for sharing Groovy Clip Rock on Peace

5:46 the son's got the guitar stank face going,frickin awesome. Def a Rocker:-)

Young people make me laugh when they see Jimi playing with his mouth. That was just Jimi.

Loved your sons reaction

In the American guitar circuits, especially where the blues ruled in the south you'd get booed off stage for not knowing the tricks like playing with your teeth or behind the back. Jimi was cut from a different cloth lol

Think God was looking for a great guitar player on Earth and decided to make one in his likeness, Jimi. He was so great, he had to set him free. Stevie Ray Vaughn idolized Jimi, Stevie is great also ✌

The playing behind the back and with his teeth came from T-Bone Walker

Other songs off the radar Peace in Mississippi , album crash landing song Trash man album midnight lighting song midnight album war Heroes all A+

Before this concert he was virtually unknown in America. He got his start in England. The stat spangled banner from Woodstock is more amazing than this. Check it out

You both need to listen to Therion, I tried and wanted you to do it on your live stream but obviously it got crazy in there 🤣🤣🤣 but please react to Therion - Sons Of The Staves Of Time (Live Gothic) the whole concert is brilliant I’m pretty sure after seeing and hearing it you will definitely seek out more of their music, they are pioneers in their genre

Hello, I enjoy your reactions

You guy should react to Purple Haze LIVE by Jimi as well, he goes off in that video also!!!

Also know only these 3 songs, however I've known that he could play with his teeth. It is crazy. I mean there was guitarists that was more technical or something. But man... He was ahead of his time. Priceless reaction thank you :)

It is a good one! So the next : The Star Spanled Banner? Rock on to 5000 👍

A good performance to do would be his performance of Red House in black and white if you can and if not then an acoustic version of Hear my Train a Comin would be awesome

One of you should look up the stats on your phone to answer your questions at the end of your video! Would love to see your reaction to the info

More Jimi 🤘🤘

More Hendrix please!!

Also I recommend a live version of the eruption solo from van halen! Its great

Cool dad

Jimi was great. I always wondered what he'd be playing nowadays if he didn't die back then. He's a legend for a reason...the man sure knew his way around a fretboard. Also, he was a consummate showman. He could show off sometimes, but he had the chops to back it up. If you would do more Hendrix reactions, that would be greatly appreciated. Here's another suggestion for you: Clutch - Electric Worry (I'm pretty sure I suggested another Clutch song in a reply to a comment somewhere too) (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qZpxddOT3a-0dn0.html). Cheers!

This is actually a remake, and a darn amazing one it is. The 1965 original is by a Los Angeles garage band called The Leaves; it's not bad, go give it a listen if you get a chance.

Move over rover let JIMI take over 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸✌

Have you thought about making a "Your suggestions/links here" type of video? Since your channel is creeping up on 5000 subscribers, it may be getting tough to keep track of everyone's suggestions in the comments section of videos. If you had a suggestions video, you could put a link in the description and maybe mention to the listeners that if they want to leave a suggestion, they can go to that link. I've seen a few other channels that use this method and it seems to work well for the most part (except some people still leave requests/suggestions in the comments section, but that's another issue haha!) Cheers!

Fun Fact: Jimi was left handed, but played on a right hand side guitar without changing the strings.

Go to facebook, type in kurts classic rock videos, and do a reaction to hear my train from berkeley, that will blow the young fella's mind

Jimi only was famous from 1967 to 1970.

Not Hendrix, but I'd recommend Guns N' Roses - Civil War. Might have to do live version of that as well.

Did you also notice he plays his guitar upside down?

Voodoo chile slight return. Studio version

Guys if u want too see someone shred behind there back and use there teeth checkout black label society - in this river live. Zakk wylde is a legend

GUNS N ROSES!

K you all know how great Jimi was no doubt! But, switch gears and really pay attention to the drums holy crap Mitch Mitchell was incredible especially as the song builds!

Your eyes at "Gonna shoot my old lady" lol Use of feedback, delay, whammy bar all pioneered by Hendrix.. We all wonder what might have been had Jimmy lived a full long life.

Jimi Hendrix eats guitars for breakfast

Oh. You guys should definitely give a go to Greta Van Fleet - Highway Tune.

I love the look of the kids realizing the quality of “boomer” music. How many guitarists can play with their teeth? Humbling, ain’t it?

Any tips on teaching you kids to get into music like yours? Mine is too young now (2), but it would be great if I could share the love of music with him the same way you do.

check out Hendrix with Band of Gypsies (live) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pK2Vh5Wp1dmzh4U.html He came on the scene around 1967 and was gone in 1970?

hola me gustaria mucho que vean musica Argentina como el indio solari su tema " jijiji "

1966-1970 Do National Anthem!

1963 to 1970.

Actually 3 yrs sadly...

You can hear Billy's original version here: https:kzfaq.info/get/bejne/huCZnLGrq72-n5s.html
