and they were all so young too.

@@derarken73 Me too 😭 And I forgot Keith Richards and Jeff Beck.. Madness.

How many guitarists does it take to screw in a light bulb? One Hundred. One to actually screw the light bulb, and 99 to stand there and say "I could have done that better." :D

Badum tssssss

Well that's billy not Paul 4 starters

💀💀💀

Does Paul tell the same story in every gig... For the last 40 years?

@@jeremyb5468 Its paul...

So he says.

@@LoveLjubav yea, I would have liked to have seen it or know what happened to it

@@nugsymalone1247 I did see it, put in YT search it shows the performance, he is LYING.

Scared of him for what?

@@MeeMee-gz5vp cus he was so new on the scene and so good at guitar. I guess saw hendrix as a threat to his position on the throne as guitar god

MC Cartney stinks

@@kingmissile809 reasons?

@@mjcook5280 a lack of showers I suppose

3 wonderful nights at the desert

I saw a 3hr set that he didn’t even break a sweat. Legend.

And his voice didn't even go out of tune... :)

Obviously it was. He was treating Clapton like he is one of his roadies.

oh he was

you should say that jimi obliterated the british invasion with a couple of their Defectives...get it

Move over Rover...let Jimi take over!

Clapton didn't even tune his own guitars.

jimi hendrix experience not and the...

..and that’s what Paul says NOW.

I got hooked for life on these Fabulous Four in 1966 watching “Help”, at 13, on the « Grands boulevards » in Paris, and I quickly developped to more particularly a “Paul” Beatles fan, but like you, I find his anecdote here uncouth _(I got hooked for life on Jimi too - and “Eric” -, ‘course)._ He does have a minor mean fiber based on something like, _“Why doesn’t everyone realize that I’m the one leading that exceptional group”?,_ that he spent too much time rehashing, in thought or in words. We were millions realizing it, did he realize it and wasn’t that enough? ;> On the other hand, I got the 3-part film “Get back” only recently, watched Part 1 so far, and it’s striking to see how they can be both geniuses and normal people having normal human hangups. Such as this one and George’s (unjustified) inferiority complex. _(However, Ringo comes out as calm and collected, and especially a much more cultivated guy than I imagined!)._

Lol I’m pretty sure this is the show you’re referencing ….

Although his talent was recognised in New York playing session gigs in '66 he was then shipped to England... and the rest is history ;-)

that´s why they call it invasion but U.S. musicians gave origin to this bands in England, most of them didn´t knew that were known in England due to segregation this regarding fantastic coloured musicians ,whatever they call them in the U.S. at the time ,not being ofensive but what does a man calls other man based on the colour of their skin ,i call him Jim if it is his name

Jimi's entire career was in England though

Yeah, adn it must hav been hard for the rets of the oudiance to see Henriks because if you luk at the mccartny he is lot taller than oudiance! Even from the back of oudiance he luks ekstrimely bigger than normal preson, mccartny must be atlest 10 foot talls!!

How many Hendrix songs did the Beatles cover? Guitar "heroes" like Clapton might have been shitting themselves, but McCartney was, with Lennon, indisputably the greatest song writer of the time. The honour was all Jimi's to have a Beatle at his gig.

@@64blip What? Twist and Shout, Why Don’t We Do It In The Road, Taxman, and In My Life were all Hendrix songs.

@@wabbit2099 Not sure where you got “In My Life” from but that isnt a Hendrix song lol, and “Twist and Shout” was written in 1961 and covered many times before Hendrix. Those are the ones I know off the top of my head, the other ones are probably wrong too though considering the track record so far lol

@@64blip while I will agree that Jimi's writing was not up to Paul or John's status his guitar playing far surpassed them and they knew it. It was always a complement when Jimi covered one of you songs ask Bob Dylan he has numerous times where he saluted Jimi's playing of his songs

That's why Clapton had to start growing a beard. Jimi melted his face off so he had to get facial reconstruction.

@blue222blue yup Clapton played with jimi said he played with his tooth and walked off and he realized he was no longer a guitar god jimi made him mortal again

Shut up, pedals jimmy used make his sound,not his skills

​@@dantedlane2 Bruhh he only used a Fuzz Face, Uni Vibe and Vox Wah. And no one can rlly replicate his exact sound. No one thought of doing rhythm and lead in one guitar at the same time. That's skill and knowledge, so shut up

@@dantedlane2 are you fucking crazy

I know I would be. Hell, I rave about it to people and even though it's not my song and I wasn't born until 5 years after it happened.

i know. its spot on every day now

A great tie-in here is that Jeff Beck covered the Beatles song "She's a Woman" on the album Blow By Blow. I only somewhat recently started listening to Jeff Beck's albums and I have no idea what took me so long. I won't put him at Jimi level (who is?) but I do hold him higher than Clapton, despite Clapton having more commercial success and mainstream recognition. Bring up Jeff Beck's name and half of the time people think you're talking about the other musician known as Beck.

Jeff Beck "Truth"! Great album!

There was also lousy guitar solos back then, by everyone. When you're Stoned, bad notes are played even by the best.

Nah its online ive seen it

Its on KZfaq you can see it

Theres film of him the day after he landed on stage as a guest of Cream and that also had the story of Eric not happy at all as he wasnt used to be upstaged

Clarksville!

@@eurofritz4617, with the 101st Airborne!

I think you have the only correct interpretation of the story.

Technically it is a tremelo bar but me and every guitarist I've ever played with calls it a Whammy bar.

It wasn't a bigsby either. Hendrix playd a strat, with fenders own patented tremlo system. Im genuinely surprised paul doesnt know that, as he looks like the kind of guy thats been around a guitar or two. Ironicly if it had been a bigsby it wouldnt have went out of tune so easy but it probably couldnt have done the dive bombs hendrix was noted for either so......?

@@busternutt2874 Technically technically it's a vibrato. Tremelo is volume, vibrato is pitch!

The bar in question does not control tremolo so it's wise that he did not refer to it by that name.

I don't think Clapton's ego was that huge. He fell in love with his playing from the start.

i do believe that when Clapton got over the initial shock of how good Jimi was. they became great friends. not like some of the egotistical Guitar players i know! i aint a big Clapton fan but respect to the man. jimi hendrix would never of gotten any Guitarist out of the audience to tune his guitar! a Guitar tech backstage if he had one. i think its appauling paul McCartney chats so much shit. i love the Beatles tho and young paul

Keep shining? He wasn’t as good a guitar player as everyone thinks!

@@pcasto oh because he wasn't the fastest or the most technicaly complicated one? Hendrix reinvented the guitar. He mastered it to perfection, invented his own style, his own genre, and kicked the fuck outta guitarist from that time. He was truly ahead of his time. He accomplished more in 6 years than any other guitarist did in their lifetimes. Just like Jack Bruce said- ''Eric was a master guitar player, but Jimi was some kind of force of nature.'' Greatness isn't about playing fast and clean. He's called the greatest because of his legacy and influence. His willingness to go beyond the barriers and experiment with something new. He could never be boring, because he always had something new to put on the table. Literaly every guitarist after him is either influenced or impacted by his work at some point or another. His genius shows in All Along The Watchtower. He took a song anyone hardly even knew and made it into one of the greatest songs of Rock history. Also Hendrix with his guitar could produce sounds no one else can. Like when he did the Star spangled banner. You can hear machine guns, tanks, fighter jets, artillery, ambulance sirens and even riots in the streets. It also included a segue into taps, the traditional bugle call played at military funerals. Speaking about it, Hendrix performing the Star Spangled Banner is one of the greatest moments in music history. Literaly no guitarist ever has or ever will reach Hendrix's level of impact and legacy.

@@pcasto I bet you’re one of those guys who learned some pentatonic scales and thinks he’s better than Jimi Hendrix, can you even play guitar?

Still no one on his level

Actually they were great friends and jammed in the clubs together.

Why it's wondeful? Jimi from 66 to his time to go was the one, the inovator, the best in Rock. Jimmi call Clapton as a joke, there were very close and Clapton was true fan of Hendrix. Think again

@@WaldyAmadeoOfficial Think again? .. Did I say ANYTHING about all that? Nope.

There is a super 8 film of a guy snapping photos of the Beatles at that Hendrix show.

He was starting I've got a feeling

The technology probably wasn't there yet. Those sort of components need to be very carefully machined and tempered... in a way that only a CNC machine can really do. Plus I think Hendrix and maybe a few prog bands were the only ones who really dared to be that crazy with the whammy bars until the Floyd Rose system was invented.

The time to teach facts and useful skills is limited when they have so much liberal indoctrination to shoehorn into the curriculum.

When your anecdotes include the likes of Eric Clapton, Jimmy Hendrix, Elvis Presley, Little Richard, Keith Moon, Billy Preston, Bobby Keys, Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson. You're gonna rely on those anecdotes too.

...

That's a pet peeve of mine, people get to a certain age and they stop having new experiences to talk about, always talking about that one time x happened and never striving to make y&z happen

Because that wouldn't have been anywhere near as funny. Jimi's timing was, needless to say, impeccable. It also would have been rude, as he'd just played a freshly released Beatles song and ripped everybody's musical expectations to shreds with his playing. Jimi was a very polite man. Also pretty damn funny with a great sense of humor. Cheeky is cool and playful, rude is not. Also, you don't play an album for a whole two days if you don't dig the music.

dont lie

?....Yeah?

jimi was fucking around whit Clapton!! man some people got a sense of humor!
