It's hard enough to merely play Jimi Hendix's riffs... that alone takes years of study. But Randy Hansen has the entire package down, even more consistently than his muse was able to pull off live. The VOCALS are what astound me - it's so close to Jimi that I swear his ghost is onstage. There are lots of videos of him out there that are great... but I think this is Mr. Hansen at the peak of his talent. Humbling, inspiring, and just fucking awesome...

Hendrix’s music is 60 years old. Jimi Hendrix was far ahead in during his time. Because NO body played (double stops) Hendrix probably got from muddy waters) rhythm n blues chops. But Jimi took double stops up another notch. Extreme! The entire album (axis bold as love) is the guitar bible for double stops rhythm n blues chops. Although the recording of axis bold as love is NOT best. Most people don’t hear everything Jimi is actually doing. Until they LEARN the songs on guitar themselves. In 67 Jimi lost original master recording. Were left with the a record the experience had to start from scratch re record almost everything in one day because deadline

the only authentic Hendrix impersonator

This is the best line up too. Not saying the ones he tours with back in here in the United States are bad, but this line up seems to gel the best. I've been watching his videos over the years, I'm hoping that since KZread has taken down most of Hendrix original music down due to copyright issues that people start listening to Randy Hansen more. He deserves to be heard. Even my stepdad, who has seen Hendrix twice, said he could've sworn Randy was Hendrix because I had hid the video from him. Hansen is the real deal.

You got that right

don't ever get tired,we love it,im 70,and ur the closest to Jimi I ever heard.very good.

Absolutely the best guy doing Jimi Hendrix period!!!!!

Randy is the only one who captures the spirituality and freedom of Jimi. Stellar musician.

How the fuck can anyone thumbs down this kind of badassery?

When Jimi passed away his soul didn't go to Heaven.. it entered Randy Hansen

nothing in the last 45 years even approaches this.

Randy Hansen with his German rhythm section, Manni and Ufo, is the best incarnation of the band. The sound quality of these Karlsruhe gigs is the best I’ve come across, very clear, and balanced.

Thanks! It's a multitrack-recording. Ufo himself did the soundmix. 😉

Randy is awesome. I call it a tribute, not an impersonation.

Randy aint tired of jimi hendrix and he's been playing the experiences and gypsys song since 75 and that's cause Jimis songs are that darn good

Randy and the band are really awesome: You can't even call him an "impersonator" since he sings and plays Jimi's music with feeling and infinite passion. This version of Hear my train... is simply incredible!!

I love Hendrix. But I love Randy Hansen, and U.F.O. Walter is insane. Whole band is awesome.

Randy is such a wonderful person and player. What a great gift, this man, who is a great musician on his own, gives all his talent and knowledge to keep Jimi's music alive.

Thank you,Randy.

Onde o saudoso Hendrix estiver deve está super contente e aplaudindo de pé a performance de Randy Hansa....!!!!!

Amazing.. first time hearing this guy. Wow, sounds just like Jimi.

thank fuck for randy hansen, keeping the spirit of hendrix alive, he is, by far, the nearest we are going to get to the great man himself, long may you continue randy, ps, haul your ass over to the uk sometime.

Hey Randy, you are the closest thing to Jimi Hendrix we ALL have, kudos to you, and don't ever stop playing Jimi's Tunes!

How cool Ufo's bass lines are in this one. And his hat too!

Tears burning me way down in my soul

The more I watch this guy the bigger the smile. Just an amazingly talented guy. Big thumbs up!!!

Randy is just supernatural man and wow Ufo and Manny are such a killer rythym section holding it down man the musicianship is truly stellar here man Randys vibrato is sick man i t s spot on and his voice is spot on ....eery and supernatural .......

Wow Randy is the best. It's like Jimi come back from the death xD

I like Randy's singing too !

Randy has taken Hendrix music to new levels by personalizing it and performing it for decades ( something Jimi tragically did not wind up doing.... imagine where he would have taken it!) with love and talent. I’d say he is a top notch musician and performer in his own right who happens to do Hendrix with more respect and precision than anyone I’ve seen. I believe the persona, outfits,guitar and moves all give we who didn’t experience Jimi a genuine taste ! Rock on brother Randy !

This is proof that Jimi Hendrix didn't die..he only changed his name to Randy Hansen.

Wow what a magical trip no other band can take me to.

Randy Seems like, no, This guy I don't know just like how Jimi has it......sounds like it is actually Jimi up there 200% and more.....incredible!

Dad keeps on killing it.

How could ANYONE put a thumbs down on this performance? I've been listening to Randy since the late 70's and he's amazing. If you liked this, find some of his performances of "Machine Gun". Every nuance of Jimi's live performance at the Fillmore East is there. Randy is brilliant.

Smoking guitar playing, really amazing

damn, 70 here, this guy and band are head shakingly good.

Sometimes I watch this a couple a times a day throughout the week. I'm an old dawg... 66 years old. I didn't know of Randy till about 2 years ago. I saw that he even visited Melbourne to play at the Palais. How I wished I'd have seen them there. What a great man.... and then next on the list comes Machine gun .... sooo good. All the best from Australia.

I remember back in 1975, 76, I saw Randy Hansen at a night club in Orange County California, he played "1983, A Merman I Should Turn T Be". I could not believe how spot on it was, it sounded just like from the Electric Ladyland album . Randy was a trio and he played it flawlessly, I was impressed. Everytime he came through Los Angeles I was there, at least 4-5 times. Thank you Randy you always delivered and gave me my Jimi fix.I recall at least 2 club gigs, The Santa Monica Civic and The Golden Bear in Huntington Beach.

Ренди просто потрясает своей игрою!!! В нём находится частичка души Д. Хендрикса!!! С каждой ноткой он напоминает нам о нём!!! Живи долго Ренди!!!

Saw him on the blue cruise. A great time!

JIMI reincarnated great cover of Jimi's music 🎶

So True !

Hear My Train at Comin 'is one of my favorite Hendrix songs. This guy from Randy Hanson made me bristle the hair on his arm at ground time. Really very good.

656 - bellissima canzone - ciao da VALERIO !!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

This band is so in step it’s awesome

fantastic dont forget JIMI wrote these songs him self

in 1972 beginning I studied Hendrix 3 solid years, closed eyes and no difference except i know, so spontaneous

Killin' it!This goes beyond a mere tribute.This is somehtin' else.I'm not sure what but it's like a shaman channeling a spirit.

already excited to see Randy Hansen in Verviers (BE) end of this year! This is my favorite song, together with Machine Gun

Yes, very impressive indeed, a real pleasure, what a luxury and amazing "experience" to hear him play, astounding!!! //Chris

He could fill football stadiums to capacity for a weekend ! Impressive

It would be a stadium watching a Fake Flake

I seen Randy in the mid '70s at the Tower theater with a friend. Jeff and I were absolutely floored by the performance. Straight up Hendrix Tribute! And man, what a tribute it was. Never seen him tour in the same fashion. At least not around philly. Good times....miss ya Jeff. Hope you're well.

I hear Randy but I hear the soul of Jimi. It is uncanny. As a guitarist I owned every wax produced. Spent untold hours. Funkadelic once offered a job.1990? Never saw live.

It's like Jimi is carring on through this man's body.

O my god . Jimi hendrix is steel alive

Amazing!!!! No words will do this justice.

Incredible !

Randi eres muy bueno.

Awesome audio & video and of course Randy UFO & Manni are always great.

Plays lead, rhythm and vocals all at the same time. Much like Hendrix

What is most important is Randy sounds 95% Hendrix and the other 5% is his own . I'm glad. I'm glad there is another Jimi for those of us who were very unfortunate enough to have missed the person and his performances.

100% feeling!

Thank you, Ufo

Splendid .Upeeta mahtavaa !

Top, thanks!

Absolutely unbelievable!!!

Jimi reinc🎉arnated.

You get the Joke. There is no Randy Hansen, Jimi was sent back to earth as an symbiot and only Randy's body was fit to carry him. THX Randy for keeping the spirit of Jimi alive.

SLOW DEEP DARK CREEPY SCARY..BLUES POWER....LOVE IT....TAKEY TAKEY..TAKEY MY SOUL TO A MYSTERIOUS PLACE....

Hendrix never died he just changed his identity 😂

Amazing as always, and still having a blast after all these years. A funny note ... not only does he play a left-handed strat upside down, he even has a backwards "Fender Stratocaster" decal, taking the mirror image to it's logical conclusion! Great little tongue in cheek joke. (check it out at 6:52)
