gotta steal this my man

Damn beautiful

Like that saying is a "new" thing???? But thank you for the reminder for the youngsters! Keep On Rocking Sabata14...

I believe i read somewhere that Jimi didn't actually create this saying. But it's not important who first said it, what's important is the message. It's so very true

Thankyou Jimmie

Wow primo, what a comment.🗽

I thought I had the best comments about jimy Hendrix but that on BC. and AD.man primo that's a todo dar, awesome.

Quinn Jackson apparently you haven’t heard too much rock ‘n’ roll Hendrix is no rockstar. only Jesus Christ is the Messiah.

​@@johnnyacevedo681 Yeah no thanks, we'll stick with Jimi's rocking tunes over hellfire and damnation ☠️ You have fun with that

beautiful assessment and SPOT ON l play Jimi's tunes in my autistic head and have for DECADES. and, the only performer l do that. gawd l miss him. sept 70 lm on the bus glance over someone got a newspaper. there it is left bottom front page. l was heartbroken. but his music and legacy will last TO THE END OF TIME

There's a lot of guitarists that do that.

Yet it's Jim Hendrix who stands above them all

Jimmy J​ You must not know many guitar players. Too many good ones to simply crown Hendrix as the best all the time, without giving anyone else a chance.

My All-Time Favorite Guitarist is Jimmy Page...

Jimmy J Page is in my top 3. Hendrix is great, but calling him the best is just the popular thing to do. Stevie Ray Vaughan can play Hendrix's stuff EXACTLY like Hendrix and is an overall better player, in my opinion. Eddie Van Halen's my favorite. Or maybe Steve Vai.

sing on brother... play on drum..

"I don't live today, maybe tomorrow baby I just don't know" Jimi

No words...

If anyone’s wondering that is from the song “ If 6 Was 9”

He played games with benzos and alcohol and it killed him. This leaves me with an inference of suicide. The two do not mix. He took his girl friends anxiety pills mixed it with booze. Never take medications prescribed for some else.

I never got to see Jimi but his sounds move me deep in my soul

I don't believe in God. I believe in Jimi.

I wasn't being religious, but Jimi's gifts certainly came from a unique and special place. They certainly had a deep & spiritual quality. Peace!

Same for Dimebag from Pantera

All Except Midnight Lightning. Crash Landing. Allen Douglas put guitarist on them saying you couldn’t tell them from Jimi. Also drums. Bass backup vocals where all people Jimi never even met. Morbid what money does to assholes!

I think so too, thank you

ppl hear the name so much..they take the artist for granted...

@@jeffbuckley4453; The work of Jimmi Hendrix is ​​one of the foundations of modern rock, pop, blues music etc.

Me and my brother were devastated when Jimi died.We used to listen to Jimi even in the school canteen back then.

wrong, man. he is THE greatest music creator of the 20th century. i saw him in 1969...i fucking know.

Buddy Miles and Billy Cox on this version

Alot of the time jimi recorded bass for his own songs

Fucking Great, Your observation. Bass & Drums are ❤ awesome as well 👏

Very true!

They are laying it down

joss

Josh Wallbanks No that would be BB King, Jimmy Hendrix is a very close Second. But a Legend in his own right.

Just get out Cobina

Ewan ET After You Get Out Eye Will. I gave a fact, not a opinion, like 99.9 percent of you UTubers do.

Stevie Ray Vaughn *micdrop*

I like that. ✌️

We just call it talent

''Spriritual" stfu

@@bigdawg6308 grow up kid

Absolutely.

So true!!! I love this man so much.

Jimi per sempre!!! La sua musica non tramonterà MAI !!!❤️👍

What is insane about Jimi is how much enthusiasm he had for guitar and things in general. Plus, 12 string guitars would be so fun to learn to play

...with, or w/o inter course

I am so glad to finally read someone else saying what I've said for years!! All I get are crazy looks from people lol. It's true, Jimi did play rhythm, bass lines, solos and sang lead vocals all at once - amazing. And he did it with perfection. To the best of my knowledge, there hasn't been another person to do that, has there? Thank you for posting! Cheers!

Their train ain't never comin'.

...and has no taste in music. Likely Cardi B fans.

I'm thinkin' they got rundid overs!

@@TheKevo7777 One of those electric trains......

@@thegolfnut812 Ha ha ha ..yep! Zap!

Pure genius. I wonder if Jimi ever heard hisself and thought damn I'm good

@@Goparescum I think he did but I think he still was determined to be better then what he is.

I agree. He wasn't from our cosmos. I don't think he knew it, though.

Perhaps Alvin Lee aswell

AGREED, TOTALLY!!!!!

Dolly Dagger is up there too... Machine Gun at the Fillmore East also comes to mind, too.

@@Excalibur2112 Machine Gun def the greatest guitar solo ever 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Lol he lit her on fire at Monterey pop

Travelling Riverside blues Led Zep Robert Johnson, it's not on any albums as far as I'm aware anyway.

TRUE THAT!!!!

me too

That's awesome that you've said that because I get same feeling from this song as well.

🤣

@@MARACUTAIA239 u better be laughing cause is right

Jimi once said , you don't play a guitar , you FUCK IT!.That's why he was so good! ✌️

Slash and Stevie Ray Vaughan can both do authentic covers of Hendrix’s songs. But noone can create songs like Hendrix did, he had his own unique style, which for me makes him the greatest rock guitarist ever.

@@StillAliveAndKicking_ Slash? pls show me.

There's loads of this god, ,needs downloading illegally tho,,not much on hendrix given to the people ,, ,midnight lighting fucking awesome

Cholo 3000 his machine gun solo might be better

If we’re talking the best tho. Without a doubt Van Halen with eruption alone

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😎

@@dylankeller9272 ohhhhkay....

and a supra talented composer

Yeah!

i'll take hazel and zappa over jimi.

It's impossible to pick one. There are none above him though

Lo puoi dire forte (you can tell it out loud)

I feel you. Same here.

You picked 2 of the greatest who ever did it!

Jimi was beyond perfection Miss him so much.

oh ya

I don't think he lived well either. He was plagued with demons, but still poured his heart out. Lived a swift life and gave his all and peaced out.

If Jimmy Hendrix came out with this song today it would still be revolutionary.

it was truly incredible -- Cream, Jefferson Airplane, Moody Blues, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, and so many other deeply incredible bands/music.

Magine...

The word “hip” trips me out for some reason when im stoned lmao.

This is blues

u know whats crazy people will listen to this NOW and then not understand the guitarist TODAY were ALL influenced from jimi... even the guitarist at jimis time even thought about giving up... not bedroom jammers but GUITARIST in the mainstream... and then we had the 70s...80s...90s...EVERYONE... talk about jimi smh... anyone who doesn't truly understand y he is the greatest GUITARIST of all time doesn't even understand what made him JIMI... u can have ur favorite and everything but at the end of the day... Jimi is ur favorite guitarists favorite guitarist. he did more in 4 years with just the influence of guitar alone then any guitarist has done in their entire career.

Same with me. If I listen to one song, then I binge for hours.

Pat Beal damn straight!!

Pat. solo sentía sensaciones extrañas cuando lo escuche por primera vez halla por fines de los 60 , era diferente a todo lo que sonaba , ya era un mito en esos años . con el tiempo entendí que la música hecha por artistas nos conmueve profundamente . coincido en que cambio mi modo receptivo ante una obra musical . gracias a que Jimi paso por mí discoteca después pude escuchar un amplio espectro de artistas que de otra manera no podría haber conocido.

He changed my life. ✌️

Pat Beal There’s 2 periods of guitar: Before Hendrix, After Hendrix 🤘

Wherever you are jimi; I hope you’re restin’ at ease

So good!

bcsorensenman feel your pain

+SaBi NuKi he died

+SETR0W lol

+SETR0W nothing dies on the internet

+SETR0W im dying of laughter

+SaBi NuKi Immortal Hendrix!!

Zayah Hopkins He's all solo

Zayah Hopkins, You may know he didn't read music to top it.

Yeah, I've read that. That's crazy.

Saiful Rimkeit there are a ton of talented musicians that can't read music! It's kind of fascinating.

Dustin Clark Music Is Passion, But Knowledge Can Help,Def Not A Necessity

hendrix is not rock he is pure blues...

@@janehill9764 Jimi played a mix of both.

hendrix did not play rock music. he played electric blues. except for his cover tunes every tune he plays has a blues underline. i oughta know cause i have been playing guitar for 47 years and i also saw hendrix perform in toronto in 1969.@@Deedee-ee1sg

@@janehill9764 Jimi is always featured in Rock magazines. Perhaps you could spend more time complaining to them about what genre he is? FFS!

@@Deedee-ee1sg my job is to educate the uneducated. obviously you donrt play guitar. if you did, you would automatically realize hendrix is not rock at all. but his use of feedback and distortion miss identified him as rocvk by all ntyhe copiers of his day, including black sabbath, deep purple and pink floyd. their attemptred mimicry led to the foundation of heavy metal. hendrix is considered a founding of heavy metal but jimi himself was a blues man who was charting new musical ideas entirely on a differentb path than rock. no one could catergorize his music, it fell outside all music boundaries. so the rock establishment called him a rock guitarist while hendrix was aptly described as 'a cross between mozart and beethoven', by the bass player of his own group 'Band of Gypsies'. and of course chuck berry, the rocfk and roll king was an accomplished blues guitarist first. in fact blues is the foundation of all modern music, icluding rock, rock and roll, rap ,hiphop and jazz.

Can you please me more specific about how this song reflects Jimi's Cherokee heritage? I'm at a loss. Now, a song like "Cherokee Mist" even though it is an instrumental I can see how that is obviously related to the Cherokee people by way of the title Jimi chose to give it.

Last I heard, he wasn't Cherokee. It was a rumor.

He was also a philosopher don't forget that

The Villager Yep, true. Also, a visionary in the true sense of the word. Jimi remains a true inspiration for all of us. Thanks, John

+The Villager Bullshit.

+tunefultony johnson Jimi can do whatever he wants to the guitar, Peace.

+tunefultony johnson Oh you mean the guitar that sold for $380000? That mad moment of Hendrix made rock and roll history, in fact even if he didn't set his guitar on fire he still would have made rock and roll history anyway (which he did), because he was an iconic guitarist. Also I wouldn't say he came across as a wanker, he actually came across as quite a down to earth person, that fair enough liked to indulge in drugs but that was his choice. So I wouldn't personally call him a wanker. Personal opinion :)

Amen to that

8 years after your comment and I agree

Also one of the best Jimi songs to play on guitar. Any time I play this song people who aren't familiar with his stuff are always surprised and say they really like it.

Indeed.

So true!

Purple Way agree

okey

lord lord what a beautiful and ACCURATE way to summarize the man.

Indeed!!!!

Actually the electric guitar was called electronic guitar up until clapton/hendrix's levels of distortion and experimentation with effects and mods on amps...

You white boys are truly showing your jealousy I hear white boys say Jimi wasn't the best but they have yet to tell me what white boy is.

tracy smith well we know one thang bitch....yo black boy prefered hanging out with white folk...hehehe When you consider overall talent...thats skills...song writing....then Jimi is just one of many...hell the lowly Beatles wrote more song then Jimi could dream of .... look at John Mayer... over all has written 20 cord songs while Hendrix are 2 or 3! Id like to see Hendrix play Neon! Van Halen can play circles around Hendrix. Look Hendrix was good and different but the world of guitarists has passed him by...black or white...bitch!

mike albert You gotta be kidding me, right? Jimi playing neon? Firstly you are comparing different generations and secondly, if there was no Hendrix, Mayer wouldnt play like he is now. Even S.R.V wouldnt be that great without Hendrix, he would be great but only with blues... Dont get me wrong, I love Mayer and play his tunes often, but John is not nearly that authentic/raw/real....

mike albert how can you compare john mayer with jimi hendrix? that's just retarded.

berkeley is definitely a favourite for me too! have you heard san jose? he was on fire that day and hear my train is mind blowingly energetic.

What version is thiS????

Dank Zappa I believe this was from People, Hell & Angels

Ya mess around and fall into the groove, and don't want to leave it.

Correct, nobody can't touch that.🗽 Exacto.

Luke Purcell was his sister who did it

I think his best album is People, hell, and angels. The same album that this song is in

@@brandonmolina7603 same version ?

@@billy-rock-a1152 yes same version, people, hell and angels.

@@billy-rock-a1152 except in that one there is MORE to the solo than what is on KZfaq and it is so BADASS

Actually, I think he was a man of his time and that time was passing. He had passed his peak by the time he died, music was changing.

@@lesleylesley5821 you may be right. I wish we had more years with him in the 70s but it would’ve kinda sucked to see him playing with a bunch of synthesizers or something in 1985.
