Hendrix Huh!? Then “Purple Haze” is a must!!

This young man from Seattle Washington changed Rock and Roll and guitar playing forever. The one...the only...Jimi Hendrix. The greatest guitar player in the world ever. He shook the world. No one ever heard anything like him when he hit the scene in 1967 with "The Jimi Hendrix Experience." One of a kind. Period.

Voodoo Child is my all time favorite song.

all along the watchtower next Jimmi Hendrix if you want some kickass 🎸

Watching videos like these makes me feel like I’m hearing these songs for the first time again. Music is so powerful...

Noel Redding Mitch Mitchell were an awesome rhythm section. Jimi shines so bright its easy to overlook them. Jimis version of All Along the Watchtower is a must listen.

Jimi Hendrix a legend he was only in his mid 20's when died one of best 🎸 players ever lived

I want to cry tears of joy when I listen to jimi hendrix.

Jimi hendrix was not just a guitar player he was a force of nature.

I love that the drummer was tied with another drummer for the job and got the job based on a coin toss. Hope the other drummer did well. This dude was perfect for The Experience

Not many people actually appreciate Mitchell.....its so easy to be hypnotized by Hendrix and miss out on what's going on behind him....he's an amazing drummer First heard ' hey Joe' on a House Of Guitars commercial as a kid....it kinda woke me up

Jimi was the man. He left way to soon I can't imagine the music he would have made if he was still alive

Bold as Love, off the Axis: Bold as Love album is one of my all time favorite Hendrix songs (great lyrics sung with a lot of passion). The Wind Cries Mary is really beautiful (also great lyrics). Manic Depression and Little Wing are also great. Wish you could have been around to hear him in the early days; it was magical

This song still gives me goosebumps.

Jimi Hendrix is great, I have been listening to him since I was Nine years old. I was born in 1958.

YES! All along the Watchtower!

another good hendrix tune is "Are You Experienced?" -- a psychedelic song about an acid trip

Third Stone From the Sun is another trippy one.

This is the only song where Hendrix used background singers, he was a perfectionist and drove the singers half-crazy with take after take after take. Props to the singers, they did an awesome job.

Jimi enlisted in the Army on May 31, 1961 for three years. While it is unclear about just what his (MOS )military occupational specialty was, he ended up serving in Company A, 801st Maintenance Battalion, in the 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. Airborne! All the way!

great guitarists are like a big beautiful roller coaster ride. hendrix is a roller coaster that goes underground, comes up through the ocean and then on the way to outer space. you won't believe your eyes whenever you see him play live.

The legend...jimi hendrix....lightyears ahead...

Jimi was The Man! The emotion, the passion. The acknowledged leader of rock guitar in the late 1960s. Mitch Mitchell was jazzy, a perfect foil for Jimi. Check out voodoo child and also rock me baby from the live Monterey album. Jimi Played on the "chitlin circuit" with all the blues and R and B artists. When he got to England those British guys where in awe of him. They studied American blues and Jimi Played with those the guys they studied. Also, check out his version of the national anthem at Woodstock. Very controversial at the time. I can hear the great Curtiss Mayfield in some of jimis' guitar playing. Thanks

such a great joy to see someone young like you hear this for the first time and love it so much

"All Along the Watch Tower"

very interesting for a 57 yr old musician hearing your perspective on Jimi !! very cool young lady !! ... and super-cool that you picked up on the fantastic drum hero, Mitch Mitchell bringing out the best in Jimi !!

Oh, that would really kick her ass. Follow up with Machine Gun *NYE at the Fillmore* and we'll be making funeral arrangements.

Hi, Scribe! Really glad you liked Hey Joe, a great intro to Jimi! Yes, that was Mitch Mitchell, Hendrix's main drummer. Jimi said Mitch's drumming made him want to play! Two great early Hendrix songs, on the CD of his American "Are You Experienced?" album, which I think you'd like are "Stone Free" & "Manic Depression".

I sold an ounce of Pot to Mitch Mitchell in 1972, in Miami Beach! My claim to fame! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Hendrix was found in NYC by bass player with the English '60s band The Animals (House of the Rising Sun). Chas Chandler brought Jimi over to London, became his manger and the rest is history as they say...

Bout damn time, 409!!! This is the studio version. U need to see him do it live. Any place is good place to start. He produced 3 technically perfect albums great for headphones. Try All Along The Watchtower, Johnny B Goode live, Killing Floor, his performance at Monterey Pop. I’m still thinking Prince was his love child with Tina Turner

I wuz 8 years old in 1969 so Jimi was gone before I really knew any of his stuff. Since then I have listened to all of it many times and as awesome as it is there’s no new stuff, so the big radio tunes don’t hit me like they used to. That’s kinda cool in one way, if I wanna jam some Hendrix it’s often the lesser known stuff (if there is such a thing). Anyway, if I wuz to crank some right now, it would probably be a song called Angel. The story goes Jimi wrote it after having a dream his Mama came down from heaven. More great -and a little different, guitar playing from an amazing Artist that left us way too soon. Much respect fo what this dude managed to do in such a short time and sad that we missed out on what he had left to write and play for us.

I was 6 in 1967 and saw Hendrix play LIVE in the UK ! My Dad was given tickets to see The Monkees and he was the support. We had no idea what we were about to hear. To my young ears it sounded like a jet engine taking off indoors. It was the time of hysterical denim clad teenage girls and they were going crazy in front of us. After 20 minutes or so, the old man asked if I'd had enough and we left. I never got to see The Monkees.

gmgroucho77 - I imagine 6yo you was a little...out of place at a Hendrix show. Fun story to tell now though. I’ve heard some of the live shows were incredibly loud. I think in those days guitar amplifiers had pretty clean preamp stages and the way to get the fuzzy sound was to just crank em up, then you got the feedback and squeals. Jimi, instead of turning down to stop that, just incorporated all those noises into his sound. There ain’t no tellin what he would have done with all the different effects that came along after his time.

There is a video of Jimi singing this live btw. He didn't write "Hey Joe." Jimi is my absolute favorite guitarist with Stevie Ray Vaughan next. I was lucky enough to see Jimi live in S.F. in 1968 when I was 14. He is an absolute legend. My favorite albums of his are Axis Bold As Love and Electric Ladyland. If YT won't let you put any up, please listen to them on your own time. You will be glad you did! Mitch Mitchell was the drummer and Noel Redding was bassist.

Glad you got to Jimi Hendrix. “Hey Joe” was the first release by Jimi at the very end of 1966. It was followed by “Purple Haze” and “The Wind Cries Mary” Jimi only had three studio albums and one live record in his short career. He died in 1970. Other songs to look for are “Red House”, “If 6 Were 9”, “Voodoo Childe”, and “All Along the Watchtower.” Look for his live performances from The Monterey Pop Festival and his epic performance at Woodstock. His drummer was Mitch Mitchell and you are right to point him out as outstanding.

The drummer's name is Mitch Mitchel an original member of The Jimi Hendrix Experience

I forgot about Fire; you'll love it

I give you total respect you actually listen to the song and you noticed how good mitch is on the drums

Hey Joe was a cover, of course anything that Jimi covered automatically basically became his! Lol You have to react to Voodoo Chile Slight Return studio version.. in my opinion the greatest guitar rock god recording of all time. Jimi has Eddie Kramer as the sound engineer for it and thankfully as well! Absolute masterpiece! Jimi❤️🎸🎼✌️ Another amazing cover and classic is his version of Bob Dylan’s All Along The Watchtower.. he had Dave Mason on acoustic 12 string backing him and it again, is another incredible classic.. My favorite artist of the 20th century.. ✌️

Chas Chandler , bass guitarist with The Animals, was Jimi's manager - and producer for a ton of his tracks

You'll love "Crosstown Traffic" (funky)

This is a good place to start....by the time you get to Voodoo Child your mind will be permanently blown.

Girl, where have you been all my KZread watching life?? Jimi is GOAT.

'Pretty' influential? He's arguably the most influential rock guitarist of all time. If you asked a hundred well known rock guitarists who the greats were, he'd almost certainly be at or very near the top of all their lists.

A friend saw Jimi performing in London in the spring of 1967. Stevie Wonder was the support act. He said nobody before or since has come even remotely close to matching him. Fifty years after his premature departure, guitarists are still catching up with him. Check out "House Burning Down" or "Machine Gun" from the Filmore East, New Year's Eve 1969 for confirmation.

It took this long for her to discover one of the greatest artists EVER, and a brother for the kicker🙁

Are you ready to rock & roll? LOL! 🤣 ring her bell. Ya baby yeah!

You always have the perfect reactions to stuff we grew up on and have been imprinted in us for decades. Instantly grooving with Jimi's greatness, catching all the good parts, not missing a beat. "Voodoo Chile (Slight Return)" should blow your mind as well.

I had to watch this video a few times, mostly for the fun of it, but, hey, old guy here... I grew up with Jimi. The way you sat up to attention with the first few syllables of the song told me everything I knew what was to follow. There's a reason Jimi Hendrix is considered one of the most important musicians of the modern era. He basically defined Rock Music. He pretty much reminded everyone that the blues are we get our soul from in music. And he redefined everything. Redefined everything. And you embodied all of that in this video. Keep listening to the OG's. They will teach much. And whatever you do going forward, be like Jimi and keep the soul alive. Keep that soul flame burning. You can only benefit by it.

I run into Jimmy's half brother at the am/pm near my house in Kent all the time. Very cool and gracious man.

Lynrd Skynyrd doing freebird live in Oakland 77 a true classic 💕🇨🇦

Im ready to rock and roll!

great song! think you would also love Janis Joplin - Piece Of My Heart. Ball And Chain (Live), they were big at the same time and unfortunately died around the same time at the same age.

1983 - A Merman I Should Turn To Be. The ultimate Jimi.

Jimi's excellent version of Hey Joe is the "go to" common one most of us are familiar with today. But before Jimi, Hey Joe was a garage rock standard played by every amateur suburban band out there. All of them played the song much faster and more aggressive. Jimi's cover at a slower pace was considered different and innovative when it first came out. For comparison sake, check out the earlier hit version by the Leaves or a five minute version by the Shadows of Knight. These versions are awesome too.

Other songs: - All along the watchtower - Purple Haze - Foxy Lady - Are you experienced - The Wind Cries Mary - Castles Made of Sand And much more. He is another rabbit hope, like zeppelin and floyd.

Hear My Train Comin' live at Berkley is a must see

Did you know you posted this on Hendrix' 77th birthday? Wow! The universe aligned for you! Here's a few suggestions: Machine Gun (from the Band of Gypsies concert) Voodoo Child Sta Spangled Banner, Purple Haze, and Villanova Junction Blues from the Woodstock concert There's A LOT more I cold recommend,,, he recorded a lot of music. You and other young people make me happy by rediscovering this music. Thank you and much respect!

Love your unselfconscious grooving to the Mitchell/Redding rhythm section...il be back for more!

I'm so glad I got to see you react to Jimi's Hey Joe. I also would like to see your reaction to All Along the Watchtower. Dylan wrote it. Voodoo Chile is another I'd like to see your reaction to. It's on the Electric Ladyland album. 1983 a Merman I Should Turn to Be is on that album too. The whole album is good. And Bold as Love off the Axis: Bold as Love album is awesome as well.

this was his tame version - at Monterey he played lead with his teeth and later behind his head

WIND CRIES MARY IS THE BEST VIBE I SWEAR. ALSO THE NATIONAL ANTHEM

He was amazing...we lost a great musician 😢

Try Jimi Hendrix version of (all along the watch tower )

Jimi Hendrix played across the US and didn't make it on a commercial level. Chas Chandler who was the bass player for the Animals heard him play and promised he'd introduce Jimi to Eric Clapton if he flew to England. Chas signed Jimi and flew him to the UK. Jimi met Clapton and Chas built the Experience around Jimi. Hey Joe was released in December 1966. Jimi was a no body. By the time of Monterey Pop Festival in June 1967, Hendrix was a world wide sensation. You should look at Jimi playing Monterey in 1967. It was his home coming gig after he'd tried for years to make it. FYI Jimi has previously been a back up guitarist for Little Richard.

Girl I am 100% with you, that's why I have a bunch of pot stocks. I'm 57 and I got to grow up with all this, didn't make Woodstock though. Purple Haze, the song I mean, Then some Foxy Lady, and of course All Along The Watchtower, which should be the second song if you're going to do it right. And the ultimate come on song Let Me Stand Next To Your Fire! On the contemplative side of Jimi, there is The Wind Cries Mary and of course many, many more. Lucky You.

You have a Voice for Radio, or voice over work. Absolutely AWESOME!!!

My fave Hendrix song!

Just to clarify, hey joe is not originally a Hendrix track. He just covered it

You are an honest person 👏👏

Some of my favorite Jimi songs are 'red house', 'catfish blues', bleeding heart', wind cries Mary' & 'hear my train a comin'' to name a few.

Yeah, my reaction to the lyrics was the same way, "violent as hell." We can't pin it all on Hendrix, though, because he's just covering this song. It was written by Billy. Roberts in 1962 and first recorded by the Leaves in 1965, a minor hit for them. Hendrix's version dates to 1967 and is the best known version.

Love you girl. Keep up the great work.

When this came out it shocked the world and scared the Hell out of all the other Musicans. They all knew they had to pick up their game quick!
