Thanks, great music! I grew up with Hendrix and love that one too.
How can this be, As a very young boy I swear that I dreamed up this song in sleep and the next morning I was singing it all over my village and very shortly after I heard Jimi Hendrix Experience playing on my parents radio

think Jimi Hendrix and Bill Roberts were playing music at the same time in Seattle Washington and Jimi learned the song from Bill ...

It can't be. Unless you wrote the song and gave it to Roberts. The mind can play amazing tricks on the willing.

Very interesting. Seminal. But it makes you think about how songs evolve through artists and genres. There are a ton of good songs out there. But people have not figured out how to do them.
The Leaves had a great version of "Hey Joe". It has a very different texture and flavor than this recording.
Roberts plagiarized this tune from his girl friend at that time.

Was not a plagiarism, he took the idea and developped into another way. Though stealing the idea is not the best
Hendrix is honderd times better!!!!!!!
