    As I have been teaching guitar for 40 years, I can honestly say I have not taught more then any other artist Jimmy’s songs truly, he was my hero growing up and coming in on the tail end of his career I truly knew at that point a guitarist was what I would be and I have never let go of that goal, remembering the 12 hour days that I would practice so that I would eventually achieve Being a gigging musician like Jimmy, one of my heroes me growing up in the south it was certainly strange my parents not able to embrace my hero worship of this man who is black for me. Colors had no lines. I am totally blind, so I didn’t even know the man was black to tell you the truth in the beginning lol nor did I ever care just like B.B. King, or any of the rest they were afraid of Jimmy, though he will get a lot of power, and I think they were afraid of conspiracies that were spoken about and I truly believe they murdered him RIP, Jimmy I look forward to the day I can join you and jam at the ultimate festival. Thank you for all you left behind. I can’t imagine what you could have accomplished shame on the people who took advantage of your kindness And manipulated your art. At least I know you’re free as I will be soon myself dying of cancer. At least I know I am looking forward to meeting Jimmy. There is no doubt he is the lead guitarist in God‘s band. I can’t imagine the betrayal Jimmy must have truly felt watching down from heaven although he experienced, I’m sure the ultimate peace there’s no doubt he was well aware of the betrayal of the people who promised to protect and be a friend the laugh is on them as they all died in strange ways did they notQ 42:28

    @40:30:00- 41:14:00: Hendrix was in the army, & was assigned to the 101st paratrooper training, before the Vietnam war escalated, so he saw no combat. But he defended the war, agreeing w/the "domino" theory that the democrat admin had posited, when it got the US involved. Good to know that he was vy much a political conservative, & despite recognizing the negative, he still loved his country. RIP, Jimi.

      I just dont get the hate thrown at Jimi's later work. This whole "woodstock era" had such an annoying geezer fanbase that absolutely despises anything alternative to mainstream psychedelic rock, and it ruins any musical discussion. Dude was an amazing drummer and a great singer, wrote some great songs too. They probably would have ate it up if he just kept playing the same shit.

    Im always shocked to hear criticism of the “Band of Gypsys” album. It was always one of my favorites and I loved Buddy’s singing and drumming on that album. In the end, I prefer the Experience stuff with Mitch & Noel but, thank god they recorded that album to give us another flavor of Hendrix to enjoy.
    My other comment is that I personally loved the 2 Alan Douglas albums: Midnight Lightning & Crash Landing. I get the fact that it’s controversial to remove old tracks and bring in session musicians after Jimi died but, the fact is….those songs were unfinished and I thought Douglas did an amazing job producing a finished product. To this day, Midnight Lightning is one of favorite albums of all time

    At 3:33 a guy states that "before Hendrix, no one took lengthy guitar solos and for ten years after Hendrix lengthy guitar solos were considered great." Is this guy kidding? Cream were already a band by the time Hendrix came to London. Cream pioneered lengthy guitar solos with Eric Clapton on guitar. In addition Jack Bruce on bass and Ginger Baker on drums improvised lengthy solos along with Clapton so that all three musicians were jamming and improvising at the same time. Hendrix, on the other hand just took solos while the bass player, Noel Redding stuck to a very simple repetitive bass pattern. Mitch Mitchell did however improvise his drum patterns during Hendrix's solos. I'm not saying that Hendrix was better or Clapton was better, I'm stating the fact that Cream were already jamming lengthy guitar solos when Hendrix appeared on the scene. In fact Cream is recognized as a supergroup and the founders of lengthy, improvisational sections during songs. Another point of contention is when that guy states that for ten years after Hendrix (1970 - 1980) lengthy guitar solos were considered great. This is also not correct. After Cream broke up in 1969, long jams during a song were going out of style. Certainly by mid 1970's and beyond very few bands supported the idea that lengthy solos were great. Led Zeppelin was one band that did venture into areas of semi lengthy guitar solos but Jimmy Page kept his solos in check. They didn't jam a song. They played the song as it was put down on record.

      After Monica Danneman "went out to buy cigarettes", Mike Jefferies and/or his henchmen entered the apartment and forcibly poured wine down Jimi's throat until he drowned. Jimi was about to replace Jefferies as his manager, because Jefferies had stolen the majority of the Experience's revenues. Jefferies was former MI6, which has historically cooperated closely with the CIA. The CIA wanted Hendrix eliminated, because, after the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jimi was flirting with funding the Black Panthers. A couple of years after Jimi's murder, Mike Jefferies died is a plane crash, which eliminated any connection to the MI6 and, ultimately, the CIA.
      Based on what we've experienced over the last three years, you should recognize that such intrigue has been long-standing standard operating procedure of the Global Cabal.

    Fact Check: Eric Clapton took long guitar solos with CREAM which pre -dates Hendrix. Hendrix was relatively unknown in THE US. COMPLELY unknown in England where l Chas Chandler took Jimi to jumpstart his career. They went to Club Wah one night to see CREAM live. Townsend, McCartney, Ronnie Wood, and more in attendance. Hendrix sat in played with Cream .
    Clapton almost quit the guitar.
    Clapton the 1st long soloist in Rock?
    John McLaughlin with Mahvishnu maybe..
    John Mayall, Paul Butterfield?
    Hendrix was the man, not the 1st extended guitar soloist.

    Other than the corny, annoying and obnoxious background music, this is one of the better docs I’ve watched over the past 30 years. Very good interviews although some of them seem a bit dated. The revelations of further investigations surrounding Hendrix’ death are discussed very briefly. Not given much credit at all. That’s a shame. My experience with the music/entertainment industry has taught me that once you’re at the top, you become a major target for all kinds of chicanery. I’ll always believe he went out just like Sam Cooke. Set up by a crooked manager who was already an overbearing crook. To them, the artist is more valuable dead than alive.

      The last ' investigation' into Jimi's death revealed that he appeared to have 'drowned' in red wine. It's like waterboarding but goes further with alcohol used to cover up ( the 60's) the crime. And easy to perform on someone semi conscious.
      I saw an old interview with Mick Jagger where he begins by saying he's not going to talk about Jimi's death or the music business.
      It seemed really odd.

Over 30 years later I caught his act once again, at a smaller venue in Everett, Washington. He still had it!...But looked older than Jimi, of course. I shook his hand, and told him about seeing him so long ago...He seemed nice.

    Hendrix was a great player but I don't agree that Hendrix founded fusion ( jazz-rock). He was a blues-rock player with R & B roots and decidedly not a jazz player. There's a bit more to jazz fusion than just being "out there" in terms of chords and scales. I can buy that the experimental improv elements in Hendrix's music set up mainstream rock audiences and opened their minds to stuff that was happening in parallel as jazz bled into rock. Miles Davis said he was inspired to court rock/pop audiences when he attended Monterey Pop and saw the huge audience it drew (his subsequent Bitches Brew album is often cited as the beginning of fusion, though there was other stuff already going on as well such as so-called hard bop and soul jazz - Brother Jack McDuff Quartet et al) . Of course Hendrix played Monterey Pop but it's nonsense to conclude his hard rock is the musical parent of the music on Bitches Brew - though blues itself is certainly always present in Jazz.
