Red House (cover), Jimi Hendrix, my own interpretation...

[Hendrix92TheUniverse]

Very professional, I thoroughly enjoyed the sound, and you play quite well. Actually, your style may be a bit more polished than Hendrix, for he seemed to have a more raw sound.

[landwell06]

I like Fender sound. Great job.

[pikepole63]

Hey bra! Nice rendition! You have the blues feel! Check out 'Green House'! I think you'll dig it! Muddy Guy!

[gtr362]

Nice dude!! Check out my version, I'm using a Wah all the way through, thought it would throw a little different touch on it.

[pikepole63]

@gtr362

Hey, Check out the green side of the tume! Muddy Guy!

[tomjunowak]

This is not the only 12 Bar Blues that Jimi wrote. He's wrote many.

[killerbug5]

Er, no he didn't. Name them...?!

[tomjunowak]

Well, many is an exageration, but he has wrote others such as Jelly 292 aka Jam 292.

[killerbug5]

Sure, it's a 12 bar blues jam, but he made those up all the time just like we all do (just listen to all the dagger records studio session CDs to find a few examples). 292 was never released on any album by him either, and certainly has no words. Red House is, if you think about it, the only real 12 bar, with lyrics, that he released and ever played live. I wouldn't have written that if I didn't know it was true!

[MrDalerox]

Try buying jimi hendrix blues cd. He wrote at least 7 of the tracks on this album alone. Try reading dude!

[killerbug5]

Er, but the only track 12 bar ever released on an album in his lifetime and written by Hendrix himself, with lyrics, (+ which was played live by him) was Red House. This appears in 2 different versions on the Blues CD, which is just a mix of some old blues recordings made by JH over his recording career. Though a few of the tracks on there are 12 bar's, they're just jams, and were never designed for release. I say what I do about Red House because it is the words of one of JH's biographers!

[MrDalerox]

I agree. Redhouse was a commercial release. But a song doesnt have to have lyrics to be a release. I bought about 7 cassettes (yes cassettes) of material released by his family years ago and there are some pretty fine blues tunes on them. Anyway im not gonna argue with you, Jimi wrote heaps of blues tunes and this is the topic im replying to not commercial releases. BTW redhouse recording with janis joplin and jim morrison on youtube is handrix blues at his best IMHO.

[MrDalerox]

[killerbug5]

Thanks so much man!

[jwwetzel]

great job!

[acousticroots13]

how long have you been playin guitar?

[killerbug5]

4 years (exactly to about a few days ago haha, was when I got my original mexico strat, not shown here)

[acousticroots13]

thats very impressive for 4 years man! i hope to be able to play like that when i get to 4 years. you rock dude.

[crazymikeobcbro]

dude i love it when people go for their own ways. i always learn the song note 4 note, tabwise and than after i play it long enough i say, no I LIKE IT THIS WAY, and than thats the way i play it. or if something is too hard i just sort of "work" around it a little and it still ends up being just as good. thats the beauty of blues, its all about the feel and personalization. this just makes me want to learn this song.

[killerbug5]

Thanks buddy, I know, been playing this song for a few years and finally got together my own version played the way I like it..very satisfying indeed and thanks for your appreciation :)

[fabbola]

What amp are you using?

[killerbug5]

Oh, just a poor quality little Marshall MG15DFX...

[GuitarGuru9939]

dude that was awsome!!! u got a great tone!!!

im surprised u only have 2 comments!!!! out of 300 views!!! keep up that good work

[killerbug5]

Thanks man :) It's just a standard fender USA strat - I'm lucky cos this one's got a really nice tone to it (not really audible on the slightly poor quality recording!)

[piran52]

Congratulations, this is awefully good
