Yeah at first i do not appreciate him because of his chord E7#9 that sounds abnormal for me at the beginning and his style that is noisy. But when i became a music major and understand every musicians i already understand hendrix's style and is wild. Turned out to be one of my influences in guitar as a musician he is very important and Bach of the electric guitar.

Lol yea

Way to put it😂

If I was high as my man Jimmy I would find walking hard too

Spongeboob 69 he practiced like 6 hours a day

Spongeboob 69 Sounds cool, all the more striking for his flamboyant attitude, and undisciplined nonchalance, but his fretwork is sloppy, and not anything other guitarists couldn’t do, were they high, or simply just dicking around.

it can sound that way because he uses a lot of distortion but he hardly misses a note, he is the best for a reason ;)

it makes perfect sense.

emotion over precision

@@jadon_clews totally agree

'since' doesn't make 'sense. OK, I'm allowed to be silly and I'm seventy.

I do.

lethalkingkez Mitch Mitchell. The best man for the job.

Mitch was Jimi's perfect drummer. His Jazz influenced free style works so well within the 'power trio'. Buddy Miles is a great drummer, but he was all wrong for what Jimi was doing. Mitch is a very overlooked musician. Personally I think this line up was the best that Jimi had. I was never a fan of Noel Redding's playing. Billy Cox's playing was exactly what Jimi needed. Pity he wasn't there from the beginning.

Appreciate the whole 'experience' obviously hendrix kicks complete ass. Ya fault the rest of the band. I liked and it's so true, what a read few comments back. Hendrix fans are been born everyday and that will be case for a very long time

I sadly can no longer appreciate any drummer except John Bonham anymore after listening to LedZeppelin songs. The feel is just damn

Totally. Mitch Mitchell and Eddie Kramer meeting Hendrix is up there with John Lennon meeting Paul McCartney and George Martin. Mitch and Hendrix work together musically like John and Paul, but no one really notices the drummer, when the front man is playing a guitar with his teeth

Billy Cox is the bass player on this performance.

Yeah ! Rest in peace, the best of all

@@sjlyons100 That's right. Hendrix is backed by Cox and Mitchell here (half of Gypsies). This is post-Experience, and this July 4th, 1970 Atlanta set included new "solo" songs like Freedom. Interesting that "Hendrix" is not even in the video title!

great band, they are missed

What about band of Gypsy's? Why my pfp look like this performance

i love 80’s metal n all, but Jimi Hendrix’s shit is a diff type of legendary 🤷‍♂️

As a high kid in the mid 80s, and as someone who learned to play and to appreciate the guitar, metal (music) wasn't that bad; it's the imaginary dark culture and it's the unintelligible lyrics that I wasn't into. Some of the most talented guitarists went into heavy metal or came out of that sub-culture. Most heavy metal music were terrible, just like most non-heavy metal music. But, again, some of the guitar solos --- some Malmsteen speed; others average speed ---- created for heavy metal have been sublime...

@@kiabtoomlauj6249 I hated 80's metal too because back then I thought playing guitar and drums that fast along with urgent screaming vocals was just stupid. But i guess I got tired of softer rock and pop and began desiring music that sounded more extreme. But Hendrix never dies.

Ya 2:11 part was funny to me.

He didnt rly smile then

Bassplayer_27 yes he smile

@@viriato197 well ok

1:55 "Purple Haze all in my eyes" *Jimi Hendrix tries to use his stand*

he was just 2 cool 4 school. the guitar is not an instrument he plays, but he is the instrument the guitar plays to get the music out.

Same as Keith Moon with drums (at least between 1967-70 as after that he go rapidly weaken). He is projecting some 'on spectrum' vibes into the instrument, ignoring most orders of the janre. Unused to think that immigrating Moon, even for a five minute drumming session , would fail due to inability to stand it phisically but some time down the road I got to learn it was because I was (and seems like none else) not wired like him.

If he were alive today, he might be texting in between as well.

Practice. I read somewhere he'd often fall asleep still holding his guitar.

while playing a right handed guitar left handed!!!!!!!

He always improvised in his live performances. He never really played it straight. Always trying new things.

Man, his playing here is the best sound and playing he ever created on stage. He played, I think, in the key of D. Very low. It gave his creativity a burst. His playing here is beyond any existing level. It is unique.This concert is a masterpiece. Are you deaf?

There are barely mistakes. I like his improv here. His guitar playing makes me wanna punch a hole through a wall.

I didnt hear any mistakes

I know what you mean. Hendrix could play real loose and sloppy sometimes in his live shows but the guy takes chanced all over the place. He doesn't care if he makes a "mistake". He knows he's cool.

+Clashofclans1985 toca bien culero jajaja puro lil wayne

My ears climaxed with my guitar sitting next to me. Nobody else plays when Hendrix is. We all shut up and listen. .

literally and figuratively accurate

That too while being on multiple drugs

He truly was an outstanding guitarist

he has perfect pitch, thats why his attention to notes is superb. he also almost never not plays his guitar daily, mastering his instrument

Jimi didn't pay attention to anything you just said, analytically. Jimi just played and everything you just said, came out from him naturally.

@@imbees2 that's just false, Hendrix was a virtuoso no doubt, but he still had to learn how to play guitar, Machine Gun for exemple is full of nuances that he definally thought about.

HEll YEAH!

Art like this will only die when humanity dies

Was actually having a bad trip on mushrooms one time when Voodoo Child came on. It took me to another universe, and I realized exactly what you are saying here, that Hendrix is not dead, because he is profoundly impacting my consciousness and communicating with me in real time through his recorded music. It's like he was there in the room, in my head, as real as any person. The experience was much more of an intuitive realization that cannot be captured in words. I just went around telling people Jimi Hendrix had taught me how to achieve immortality. The rest of my trip was a good one.

@@Reality4Peace and that's why you shouldn't do drugs, kids

@@liru6869 Lol. Well psychedelics are definitely not for everyone. And I wouldn't recommend using them as a party drug. Research has shown that when used in a structured environment with a experienced shaman they can have great therapeutic properties. Many cultures have used them ceremonially and therapeutically for millennia. Personally, I've only used psychedelics twice and not again for the past 5 years. Both times have triggered anxiety and for me it's not worth it. They're not toys. Though, I am extremely grateful for the positive experience and insights that I did have while under the influence and can say I'm a better and deeper person for it.

Its my favorite part. he blows us away for 30 seconds then cuts into the main riff like an extended "moan", almost as if to say, come back down to earth.

He was a very cool man. He served his country honorably and regardless of where he went, he always remained a very witty & down to Earth man

Maybe a hundred years from now you'll get it😮.

YES!!

There's no "ifs, ands or buts" about seeing Jimi Hendrix. Either you did or you didn't. I did. and his performance was the best musical performance I've ever seen. Period.

au contraire... those of us who dropped a bit of good acid (like he gave out at 2nd annual N Cali folk rock festival).... "got it".. we didn't need to "keep up"... he was a direct pipeline to something beyond time and space

@@woodzeppelin3241 That's the Muse. The obsession that puts the greats into the grave faster than they should. Any musician I felt was ever touched by The Muses, it was Jimmy. There are others of course. Jimi is in a league all his own. I'd say he and The Doors were the last remnants of the soul of the '60s. I was a kid, but I do remember the times fondly. You can copy him, but there can only be one Jimi. He is a slim shady for sure. I'm sure some have already seen this performance, but it is worth watching over and over.

Taste of Indie Collective I am trying my best to figure out what SSB stands for but I'm coming up blank..do you remember the act that came on after Hendrix and did surprisingly well considering they had to follow Jimi? I remember wishing I wasn't quite so stoned as I was wanting to remember every note. I have always told people I thought he played really good that night and was "on". Now that I've heard that night again I know I was right and wasn't just being impressed because it was him. I also went to the Atlanta Pop Festival the previous year where I saw Led Zepplin for the first time and I didn't even know who they were till they came on stage. I sure knew after that.

+jim wilson If i don't die before it, i'll be 65 some day and also be 65 will suck then, (i don't know it yet) but i won't ever get to see something like that, you should be glad to be 65 now and not in 2048 like me, i didn't get to see any of those legendary bands but Black Sabbath 2 years ago, no musician that i like is under 55 years old, much of them will die before i see them, so man, i envy you for the chance you had. Congratulations

Federico Llerena Thanks but don't think so negatively..Its easy to look at today's pop scene and thinks nothing is happening in music but I think that would be a mistake. Every generation has musicians that are groundbreaking one of a kind. I never got to see Mozart or Bach. The difference is you have to sort thru all the noise to find the types that are innovative and brilliant. It doesn't have to just be in the rock world either..music is constantly morphing and there will always be some new genius come along that is special..You may have to search a little harder and they may not have millions of fans but they are out there. Stay healthy, keep learning and 65 can be the best time of life..I'm having quite a great time of it myself. Having said all that it was cool seeing Jimi and Janis Joplin 2 times and the Doors to mention just a few..

+blackdragonthebad Depending on your reasons. I've seen a lot of people who say they wish they were born in the thirties or twenties because life was so much nicer and simpler back then. I'm sure those people would have loved to live through the Great Depression, the Dust Bowl, and World War II. Most of them imagine it would be just like the Great Gatsby, but at that time very few people were that rich. Then you get people who say they wish they were born in a different time because, "music was good back then". This I find ridiculous because there has always been good music, and there has always been shitty music. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. There is still amazing music today, just like there was shitty music in the '60s. As a matter of fact, there were people in the '60s who though The Beatles had ruined music, and wished they could go back to, "the Golden age of music". Lastly, wishing to be born in a different time is a waste of time, because for one thing, the grass is always greener on the other side, and of course, you will never be able to be born in another time. Getting upset about it is a waste of brainpower.
