The Music Thread Strikes Back

Oh dear matey. Paul, paddy & the bear are likely to give you a bit of a mauling I fear...

Why?

 

[Langers]

Hendrix is extremely overrated anyway.Maybe even extremely,extremely overrated.

Sometimes I don't believe it's possible for you to be any more wrong than you normally are, but you've just surpassed yourself.

I'm with Norway (if only to piss off the String pluckers of the forum)

I'm no guitar geek but c'mon, Hendrix was awesome!

You don't deserve ears.

You don't deserve ears.

That's true,but pointless.

Gary Clarke Jr has been said to be this generation's Hendrix. Thoughts?

He is fucking awesome live.

 

[NorwayFB]

Beatles were not that great either.

 

[The Bear]

Good fucking grief. Hendrix over-rated?!! Have a word!

The bloke is to the guitar as Ronnie O Sullivan is to snooker. A straight up genius.

Stop drinking and typing, its your last warning or I report you !

Stop it, just stop it now, or I'll start to write with caps lock on :steam:

He may not have been the greatest technical guitarist, but he wass mojo personified. He had a languid style that oozed soul - the kind of thing you can't learn.

I've always preferred the Isle Of Wight Festival. His version of Voodoo Chile was incredible, if out of tune to start with).

I'll have to seek that one out.

The thing I like about the Woodstock gig was that he didn't play until the Sunday morning as he insisted on closing the show. He was offered the final slot on the Saturday night, but refused it. He must have been off his face, as were the crowd, at sunrise - yet he still did what he did. The whole improv jam in the middle of the set was pure genius. That's what you want to see at a live show - natural ability and soul projecting out.

Hendrix is probably one of the main reasons I picked up a guitar as a 7 year-old. The man was a GOD (who admittedly could have done with tuning his guitar occasionally)

Pah, he did it mid song.
