Lyrics:
Purple haze all in my brain
Lately things, they don't seem the same
Acting funny, but I don't know why
'Scuse me while I kiss the sky
#TheJimiHendrixExperience #PurpleHaze #AreYouExperienced #OfficialVideo - Hudba
If he ain't your favorite guitarist, he's your favorite guitarist's favorite guitarists. FACT
Yeah, Tim Henson.
But he is my favorite!
Yeah, John Frusciante would ask him to adopt he. But I have to recognize, Hendrix is just a legend.
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.
he 's like Keith Moon !!!
His playing is so effortless he probably finds walking harder
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.
I've never seen a man more comfortable with a guitar in his hands than Jimi.
Prince?
@@mrmrsmarshall9110naw jimi solos
Steve Vai
@@kid206511 Steve Vai looks rather uncomfortable on guitar. Have you seen the faces he makes?🥴😵🤤
He speaks guitar...
Technical skill on the guitar is one thing but this man had something every artist strives for. He just had it.
Originality. Like yourself.
Jimi did not play music it flowed from him.
Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton are the only guitarists who became ONE with their instrument. Nothing compares with them.
I am 69 yrs old I saw Jimi twice in Houston. Wish you all could've been there.
must've been quite amazing watching him perform
Ugh so jealous! I bet it was amazing!
@@heyitsalannaluv one benefit of being Old.
@@heyitsalannaluv you need see a dc Shot down in flames, I did not get to see Bon Scott unfortunately. Incredible. Especially today. One time I filled sa lol une bottle with 100 proof schnapps to get it in concert. Then next week I forgot and put in my eye. OMG burne
@@heyitsalannaluv one benefit of being 69 yrs old and not being in Nam.
No one ever looked more natural with a guitar in his hands.
This is so true. Like it was a part of his body. What a legend.
With hands that size, he could also do things with his thumb that simply aren't possible for others.
Search...Buckethead
@@billplaney2585 daaamn. I realized that just now
@@tomo2095 Makes one modify ones own definition of "talent" if a significant component of having it has to do with what kind of body you are born with, rather than what effort you put into mastering the particular skill.
People don’t understand this is the man who started it ALL. He completely took the electric guitar and reinvented it
I do.
Im fed up with these, who are the greatest guitarist polls.. there is no competition with this guy. He was and always will be the greatest !
People who saw him live back then don't know how lucky they are. They saw a true genius at work.
i know man... we can go there with our intuitional nature now.
+RebelThoughts82
yes I do;)
+RebelThoughts82 I'm pretty sure they eventually realized how lucky they were lol...
+RebelThoughts82 i was both lucky and fortunate. i saw him twice in california; at the hollywood bowl in 68, and then at the forum in 69. everything you see on youtube is a nice reminder, but being there - no words...
+Edward Badalian (Initiate) I'm pretty sure there were some that some realized his skills as he played.
RIP the three members of The Jimi Hendrix Experience
Jimi Hendrix (November 27, 1942 - September 18, 1970), aged 27
Noel Redding (December 25, 1945 - May 11, 2003), aged 57
Mitch Mitchell (July 9, 1946 - November 12, 2008), aged 62
You will be remembered as legends.
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
He has such astonishing fluidity, and maintains the rhythm even when doing fancy solos, rather than just playing notes fast. He also pays so much attention to all of the notes, bending and sustaining with such nuance.
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.
R.I.P James Marshall Hendrix (November 27, 1942 - September 18, 1970)! THE BEST THERE EVER WAS EVER WILL BE!!!!!
Can we all appreciate how the drums complement jimi
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
What I love about Jimi is he doesn’t try to hit every note perfectly but what he does play sounds so unique it’s more perfect than perfect.. if that makes sense
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
@@jadonclews3348 totally agree
'since' doesn't make 'sense. OK, I'm allowed to be silly and I'm seventy.
Jimi at his best,so disciplined.
Amazing how his drummer jams so perfectly with him during his solos.
@@Albrecht777 huh?
@@leglobonaume The original comment has been amended. David Baron (above) originally talked about how Billy Cobham was playing on this video. "Billy Cobham, I believe", he wrote. Hence my response above. You will see that his comment has since been edited, to remove all reference to Billy. [Note: I have also edited this comment, since I forgot that the original remark referred to Billy Cobham!]
@@Albrecht777 mitch is the man! am i right
@@psychedeli_ You are indeed! It's no accident that Mitch is Stewart Copeland's favourite drummmer, for instance.
Mitch Mitchells is a fucking beast, couldn't have had a more perfect match
All those famous, dead musicians and authors and actors are not really dead. They’ll be dead when they have touched the last one of us, and that won’t happen in a long time. The last fan of Jimi Hendrix is not yet born.
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.
I will never understand how he can seamlessly switch between a rhythm riff and lead riff outta nowhere AND sing at the same time
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!!!!!!!
This guitar is a part of his body.
it sounds so natural i don’t know how to describe it, it’s almost like if the guitar was speaking, like if the guitar was alive it’s insane, this man it’s just out of this world.
I love Hendrix' gestures

Thanks!
Woah that's cool!

Why do poeple spell his name More and not Mour??
Still THE BEST in 2.024 ❗❗❗👏👏👏
Here is man that has mastered and understood the strings beyond dexterity
this is what guitars sound like when they reach their climax.
+Clashofclans1985 toca bien culero jajaja puro lil wayne
+Dilan Martinez nomames Lil es el dios d la guitarra XD
+Clashofclans1985 perfectly described.
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
I’d debatably say he could defeat a man in the mirror
Yeah but first he would need some gold experience
Rip fugo
I come this video because stand of Fugo.
He invented infinity ;)
Yep, but only with the help of some moody blues
It doesn't matter who is the best ever. What matters is that Jimi got more out of electric guitar than anyone else before him. And he was always pushing himself into new territories. It is sad that we never saw his full potential.
Purple Haze kicks more ass than 80's metal.
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.
Hendrix was just an alien who visited earth on vacation and had to go back to his home planet.
Page Was God you meant angel.
Same for Randy Rhoads
Stop that.
Ironic cuz he actually claimed to be an alien when he was alive (no joke)
Wow, Sir Lancelot!
Maybe he was!!!
The 1 and Only!
This song is longer than Fugo’s screen time
oof
Here's hoping for a Purple Haze Feedback OVA.
@@bacca4813 purple haze feedback
You had to do it to our boy Fugo.
f
Good Lord, the things this man did with a guitar. Unreal. Always was amazed at how effortlessly he played.
He effected music for more than 40 years !!!!!! End of Story because he Did ….. Peace
All these years later and the mystery man Jimi sings about is still unknown. Whoever this shadow figure is, I know they had a blessed life.
He was willing to take chances on stage. This performance is not about the cleanest, most perfect guitar playing, but it's sheer artistry on the fly. Amazing.
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.
I'm not going to give any of the, "le wrong generation" bullshit because I love a lot of today's music, but damn, I wish I could've seen Jimi live.
fr todays music is great but seeing him live would be an amazing experience especially if i was high as fuck
+MindMash5647 stay noided
ben waterfall Oh shit I'm feeling it
+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.
+blackdragonthebad I can see where you're coming from.
Hendrix was an incredibly talented player yet he remained humble until the day he died. ❤
Isn't this man just the absolute coolest person to have every lived. Everything about him about him just scream for attention and is absolutely awesome.
HE IS ONE OF A KIND HELL OF A GUITAR BUT HE AINT GOD 😅😅
Swagger! In a good way.
A left-handed person playing a right-handed guitar virtuously, he never studied music (he learned to play self-taught) and lived in an age where having black skin was being little less than an animal. Humanity is amazing.
@@kawaiitoxikk3471 okay
Most of guitarista are self-taught most of us too don't know a single sht about music sheet
He sold his soul my dad was friends with him he told me lol no one ever believes me but whatever
@@imbranded8591 but now we have way more resources than they had in those days. Jimi just played what sounded good
@@jamesharris3746 Nobody believes you because you're either insane or lying
I read once that Jimi was hardly ever seen without a guitar in his hands or at least very close nearby. He almost couldn't stop himself from playing and music just literally poured out of the man. Same thing for EVH. A girlfriend once told Eddie that she thought he liked his guitar more than her and Eddie agreed lol. And that's what makes those guys so special.
Great comment
That's true
Eddie Who?
@@shaserv Van Halen
@@TheOnlyHollywood1 LOL!
Someone around in 2024?
Still rocking more then half a century later 🤘
🤘
🔥🔥
Mhm
I was in a Jimi Hendrix cover band in my teens in 2004. I will always be here.
Yepppp
Ya imagine if Jimi still alive until now
We don't know at what level his guitar skill Will be
Really want to see that happen if possible
Still the BEST forever
Bravo❤
Right after the song, the guitar asked Jimi for a cigarette
-just hope it was over 18
Haha......fantastic answer !!
Lol!!
Underrated comment
That's the best lol right there original like he totally made his guitar orgasm in sounds haha 💯 truth right there
2:11 Jimi could speak Guitar language
i think he’s saying “i’m going to far” if you speak those words over the melody he’s playing it lines up perfectly
"Me When I'm Bored"
@TuWE. - Working as a slave
He is responding to his guitar feeding back during that stop. That is what I see. Mouth movements do not correspond to the notes being played at all. Looks like he says "WTF is with the feedback" or WTF am I in the monitor for" Etc.
hes saying im F' ed up..Im F' ed Up
No wonder he pretty much always wins the greatest guitarist poll in every poll I see. He’s just different…another level.
I saw him in person. unbelievable playing that you can't even explain.
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.
I think that god just needed a kick ass guitarist in his band so he took jimi .
too true. r.i.p. Jimmi
+Jay Star wait, who's on drums
drummer would be john bonham
+nathan kimble I thought Mitch Mitchell was drums for the Experience, was it a different drummer that time
+Alfred Palmer in heaven i meant
I try not to watch Jimi's live videos, because he kicks my ass as a guitarist. I have been playing much longer than him, he died so young. But I drag myself here, to admire and learn. Thanks Jimi for all these 40 + years of guitar lessons you have given me. Love ya man!!!!
And are you practicing 16 houres per day? I dont think so....
@@kubikmatejka That's right. there is a video here with interview of Billy Cox who was room mates with JH after they got out of the army, recalling how Jimi would walk around with a guitar all day even in a movie theater! That's dedication.
@@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. What a great performance he gave!
czcams.com/video/gYC0CzGSGSo/video.html
@@michaeldefeo3030 I was very young in the 60s. I remember a hotwheels toy "Light-my Firebyrd" . Did not know who Hendrix was until years later after he died and i was in high school. Both the Doors and the Experience launched a million guitaists. Thanks for sharing the link. I saw that one already, but worth another listen to.
@@woodzeppelin3241 Oh without a doubt!
The amazing thing about Jimi was how he kept his Fender guitar in tune! That itself is a feat
The GOD of Rock ❤
i was 14 when this came out. We were stunned. this was so out of left field it was amazing.
STILL IS! KISS the SKY!
@The Amalgamator You`re quite young to have such an excellent taste of music. Respect.
I was 14 years old when I saw Jimi Hendrix at a concert in a theater where everybody smoked weed.
It's the sky.
I saw Jimi at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto in 1969. We were all stoned every weekend. Those were the days.
i'm born too late
The little part at the end where he mimics the main riff is just amazing. Jimi was a genius. Rest in peace.
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!!
EVERY note was a psychedelic journey of the mind. Matter of fact your mind couldn't comprehend what it was seeing and hearing. Trying to keep up with his playing was mental gymnastics left for those that were sober during his concerts. The rest of us just sat there in awe sucking up every second of his once in a lifetime playing / sound. RIP the Jimi Hendrix Experience members. You changed music forever and for the better!
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
Well Said...🎶🎼🎵 👍👊
I'm here in May 2024 any one else
Trying to learn it but he is so high I don't think it's how he wrote it originally.
Even if you know nothing about music, you know this is great
Sandra MacMillan thank god
Sandra MacMillan the fact that Jimi Hendrix knows nothing about guitar theories and learned how to play it on his own is just fucking amazing.
@@jayburriswayne5403 A lot of blues n rock guitarist can't read music. They invented we need sheets to follow their lead.
Jimi was a self taught guitarist.
People will never understand why he played with a Stratocaster upside down.
in some ways its kinda sucks being 65 yrs old but I was there watching this concert...started with big fireworks display as it was July 4th. After fireworks he immediately started and first song was star spangled banner..
+jim wilson .... damn right I was there ... I remember that SSB despite the chemical impairment at the time!
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 SSB = Star Spangled Banner
+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..
He changed rock and roll forever!
He’s so good it doesn’t even look like he is actually fretting 😭😭
In 100 years, people will remember Chuck Berry the man who started rock and Jimi Hendrix who taught people how to use an electric guitar. I am 60 years old today white and from Sweden this man is a role model for hundreds of millions who like rock.
Good fairings from Boston my friend, it’s an experience worldwide, only 19 but it’s a vibe for all :)
No one asked

Fact!

I can't like this enough. I've watched this 100 times over the last year and every time its like the first time.
I'm sure Leo Fender never envisioned that when he created the Stratocaster...
The way Hendrix abuses the tremolo in his own beautiful way was completely unheard of back then...
And yet even though it wasn't designed for such extreme divebombs it's amazing how Hendrix always managed to stay in tune...For the most part...
He was a genius who did the best he could with the kind of gear he had back then and pushed the limits of music and the guitar so far ahead...
Of course there were many other great guitar players back then...But no matter how great they were they were still guitar players...
Hendrix was something else...
How true, Jimi was his own Master and Played His Way!
Either you can play a Stratocaster guitar or you cain't! If you don't like the premier playing of Jimi Hendrix, that's on you. The rest of the world thinks his playing is absolute, premier and above the scale of most other guitarists.
Let's not forget, that's a hell of a band behind him too...
Hell yeah man. Only the best
I never think of that, actually. Most kickass musicians probably have super kickass musicians behind them playing drums, another guitar, bass, piano, etc
Mitch Mitchell is one of the best.
Just a three piece making that sound hell ya they were great.
Mitch and Billy total badasses.
In 1970 at age 17 my best friend and I hitch hiked from Dallas to a little town in Georgia called Byran to witness Jimi Hendrix the God of guitar. Spectacular to say the least!
Shit like that is so cool
Wow. That must have been something!
I was there, too. I'm still wondering about the fighter jet that buzzed the concert area..... 3:48
I was there. I lived in Georgia. 18 years old.Hendrix played Star bangle banner 4th of July night with fireworks!
He performed in a little nightclub in my home town of Ann Arbor. Pink Floyd did too. I was only about twelve years old though so I didn't go.
Saw him in concert at San Diego Balboa Stadium in 1968. Still love his music. He even served in the army, briefly.
The fact how even the drummer and bassist are so damn good at their job is crazy, especially Mitch Mitchell who also goes ham on the drums while being consistent rhythm-wise and able to keep the beat centred. A genius band from the bottom up
When the grim reaper came for Jimi the first thing the reaper said was " can I get an autograph? "
Nailed it.
I bet even the reaper was way to excited to met him. “Oh Fuck it’s you!”
He probably had his guitar with him
funny because Jimmy died of an overdose so the grim reaper probably didn't get his autograph
Julio Martin araujo he probably had to dislodge the vomit in his throat before he could ask anything
Jimi's music is genius
+VIRGILIO P #MAESTRO !! muy perfeto
He still takes my breath away after all these years. No-one has even come close to his brilliance with a guitar.RIP Jimi, you’ll never be forgotten.😢

Turns out their kids loved despacito more
Hi my dad didn't even listen to jimi Hendrix and classic rock seems like I found it myself I'm 15 and I found our about jimi Hendrix 6 months ago.
My dad never had been ready for it.
But his kid surely loved it. Got the reference though.
I was born a few years after he died. We kids of my parent's generation loved it. :) (P.S. love your "Back to the Future" reference.
I listen to jimi because of my dad 💖🥰🤩
Hello I'm that kid
The ending gives me ABSOLUTE CHILLS every time.
It's a no brainer that he was voted the greatest guitar player ever.
It's honestly too much for me to comprehend that a man like this, who could not read music and was self-taught, can play like that in just 13 years. I think it would take me that long just to learn this one song. No amount of fulsome praise can truly describe how much of a talented genius Jimi was.
Amen brother!!!
I have to agree with you there lol.
Practise .... and an expansive imagination ...
Yes, they certainly don't make them like that anymore.
And on a right-handed guitar!

Best guitarrist of late 60s and early 70s, rest in peace Jimi Hendrix (1942-1970) Gone but not forgotten
He does these difficult things as if they're nothing! It's insane. It's like he's learnt to speak guitar
Great analogy.. Jimi speaks guitar. naturally.
Caesar, gret discription. Jimi learned to speak guitar! Yep. English was a second language to Jimi. Guitar was his first language!!!!
It really helped to have had hands that large.
Jimi played guitar for a grand total of 12 years.
12 YEARS!!!.....that's it.
Age 15 to 27.
It was part of his DNA to be that accomplished in such a short period of time.
@@christopherweise438nah practice 10+ hours everyday does that
Yes son there once was a time when rock gods roamed planet earth.
My sentiments exactly!!
I like that! Great way to put it. Jimi
was a timeless soul. He lives on...
from the immense impact he left-
not just from his unique originality
musically, but as a mythical guitar
god in status from a boldness that
no technical ability nowadays -can
change or effect. He was the first-
guitarist to set foot on the moon...
The pioneer... The Neil Armstrong,
of guitarists. And studios were
never the same after Axis. Totally
changed engineering techniques!!
@@RAYGERVATO No truer words ever typed out in a message. thanks 👍
@@raywebb7501 I like yours better ;)
Thanx Ray hey, we share that light.
Some Jimi covers here if interestd
both acoustic and w/my old band.
X-RAY IMIJ ~ best
@@RAYGERVATO My Man.!!!
It's as if that guitar just grew out of his body and became part of him.
basically
BEST I'VE EVER HEARD IT PUT!
that sounds rite his gituar was part of him. So ahead of his time. nobody has come close to his genius. WOW✌
Hahahaha thats the best thing ive heard 😂 so true
As Bill Hicks once said: "Jimi Hendrix played his cock."
Damn, he was incredibly talented. It's a shame that he didn't live long. I wish he was still alive to produce more music.
No ones done it like him before, since or after. A true legend.
I love the camera man who filmed this because he kept it where you could always see jimi playing and singing.
Edward Gore 1:18
Good point cuz many did not
I also like the shots of noel, and mitch just wildin out on those drums
LBboarding b pretty sure that's Billy Cox on base.
Yeah this is great camera man, if only there was someone like this for cream as well
This man's legacy will carry on till the end of time.
People 1000 years from now will say "what is this sorcery!" 🤘
He was "the beginning" of all fuzzy + sustain guitar players! Unique. Love all his records. Iconic. 🎸⚡
I'd say it was Jeff Beck with the Yardbirds in 1965. Or maybe Eric Clapton. I Feel Free was in 1966 while Are You Experienced was 1967.
@@Frisbieinstein maybe add some Buddy Guy in there? Beck played circles around Clapton IMO
LONG TIME I HAVEN'T HEARD THIS SONG - JIMMY R.I.P. ❤
This is bad ass, far out, edgy as hell in 2020. Imagine people seeing this in the late 60s?? People must’ve thought he was from another universe (which he probably was)
We did, he is a legend and I was heart broken whe he died so young, so many of them did
Saw him In June 1970. In April of the same year I saw Led Zeppelin and in August The Who. Led Zeppelin and the Who were great. Hendrix, all I could say is I was never so mesmerized at a concert and never been since, and I've seen many. You were transformed to his world and it definitely wasn't this one.
Right you are. Not possible to understand at17 yo.
We did ....
For sure, he came to our planet and gave us something unique and then left us as quickly as he came
Whenever I watch other great guitarists perform live, I notice how they kind of tense up and really focus on what they're playing and try not to make mistakes. But whenever i watch Jimi, I just see him play guitar, and that's what makes him so great. It's like he doesn't care what happens during the performance as long as it sounds good. He doesn't focus to hard on playing, he just goes with the flow. And if there are any mistakes, he just blends them in with the song. Jimi is a true master of the guitar who died way to young.
The man was brilliant
One of the best Guitarists, whether it’s in the 1940s to the 2020s
Happy 81st Birthday Jimi! You're 81 years old if you're still alive! 🎸🔥🥳🎂🎈🎉🎊
Time don't exist
We were 20 in '70, drove from Little Rock to The Atlanta International Pop Festival in my van. For us it was Friday afternoon, The Allman Bros. started things off. I was humbled by the entire festival being so beautiful. Number 1 groups following 1 right after another. What I enjoyed of Hendrix was late Sat. night. He had his multi colored cape and clothes blowing me away. This was the biggest festival I saw. If my details are off I'm disappointed yet not surprised? Peace lives on
So cool!
so cool
How pop music has declined
Kerry Masterson
Kerry do you remember midday on Saturday and Spirit was playing and they stopped them to try and get 400,000 folks to back up at least a half of step, we were right in front of the stage and getting crushed, they did.
Its crazy how many people come back to this everyday... this song is masterpiece!
Please don't do this here, go somewhere else *shoo*
Get out of here

One of these shit comments again. Go away.
Legend
It breaks my heart that he was hurting so much. His talent was superhuman. RIP beautiful legend.
Thank you technology!! We can hang out with Jimi whenever we want.
The first time I heard Jimi play I was about 10 years old. I got goosebumps. That was 1968. He still has that effect on me to this day.
I agree, Mitch Mitchell is one of my favourites
+Gary A Me too!
were u at a concert?
+amistry605 -- No, I was watching some summer concert show on TV. At 10 years old, there's no way my parents would let me go. ha! I remember exactly where, when, and what I was doing at the time.
I was there in 1970 and Hendrix played late on the 4th of July and gave one of the great performances of his career. This was the second time I saw him play and there are great musicians still today, so don't get bored or broken spirited. Still those were the greatest times for me and the hippies were wonderful. We could have shared a nation and a world of brothers and sisters in one free rainbow unity, dispensed with money and wars, and gotten on with green solar and wind power for each and everyone ...and we still can do it. Love to you all.
Not to put you down or anything, but wind based energy isn't all that efficient in practice, and actually kills a lot of birds who get swept up by these giant fans :(
But yes, go green, end hate, spread peace and love
We could use nanoturbines which wouldn't even get in birds' way, but you're right about the large ones. ) Peace )
That sounds wonderful, I bet the optimism and vibes were infectious
53 years without Jimi Hendrix❤️❤️
November 27th 1942 - September 18th 1970
Hello how are you
Jimi Hendrix
The solo at the end is seriously mind blowing. Such a shame this man had to leave us so early in his life, the amount of music he could've blessed us with was endless
that guitar asked for a cigarette after jimmy was done with it
I saw Jimi at the Round House in London. His guitar was on the ground. He turned on the amps and walked around it. It wailed and screamed. I met Terry Prachett of Disc World fame and told him about RH event. He was there too and said it inspired him to write Soul Music.
A once in a generation musical genius.
One of one never again
