Come on likeness alone is all.. In my opinion this dude sort of sucks. Only thing him and Hendrix have in common are they are both black.. that's it. He sucks on guitar..
Every dis here is like a Spinal Tap girl friend saying "Needs Dobbly." LOL. Wonerful musician. Those complaining, put up a vid of yourself trying to play this and let's see what YOU got. Those noting this guy is right handed, also note his Strat is modded with a left-handed neck turned upside down. Nice touch. Jimi played through a '63 bassman amp head as well as a JMP100, So shut up 'experts.' This man is real, not a bedroom video. Don't like the tone on a fan youtube vid? Go see him live.
you guys are extremely cool, I would like to contact you about touring with our band sometime. It will be a while, before we are ready to hit the road, but I will contact you if your interested. Our band leader is a black man writing songs and playing rock and roll, I alternate playing bass or lead, and I'm more psychedelic and heavier than fuck...Jimi's spirit is getting stronger ever day now!!! He's been through a lot of changes but we will meet again...
@bingobobing besser wisser!! wer hat denn dass tempo für diesen nummer festgelegt?? DU?? jimi sicher nicht!! er hat es ja selber nachgespielt! haha!!
I hate to be critical, but there's a little too much delay on his solos...the first repeated notes are just as loud as the original and its making a mess of things...shoulda been a little mroe subtle there, I think.
As good as this guitar player is doing Hendrix, it makes me appreciate even more how great Hendrix was. That's not a slam to this guy at all. I think going through a Marshall 100watt stack would produce more authentic tone with the feedback always looming. The Fender sounds too tame. Great job!!!
why is every one hating on this guy get your heads out of your asses he is good and besides jimi once said when i die i want people to play my music and freak out go wild and do what they want to
jimi is like the most talented in the world, did you know he died 27 years old, and only 6 years after he started recording in a studio, and still hes considerd the best guitarist in the world, just think what would have happend if he had more tiime to play, how much more aweosme songs he could have written, the biggest lost ever in my opinion
thumbs up if jimi is your inspiration like hes mine
@nivkingniv He probably would have done what every other great artist did. Get tired of music then start making things that not everyone would agree upon. So to speak "sell out." The thing is that he did die at such an early stage of his career so now he can't any wrong. With his death you can only appreciate what was recorded. Just imagine if Dylan had died before he grew tired of music? He'd be at a point where he could do no wrong musically, too.
He's pretty good... but his guitar's somewhat bizarre. Jimi's guitar famously was a right handed fender strat restrung to a left handed configuration such that the guitar was played entirely upside down. Now obviously the player is playing his guitar righthanded - not that there's a problem in that - but you'll notice that he's using some kind of a chimera strat; the body is facing in the standard configuration, but the headstock is upside down. It's very weird...
so why does he have to dress up like a sissy jimi was the authentic gypsy these guys are sissy boys dressed up just play jimi good is enough not imitating every move he made then thousand years ago thats bullshit
Hi guys i was wondering if u could take 5 mins of your time to check out my cover of this with my band i am 15 and have recorded this cover on my laptop i hope u enjoy it ;) x
hell of a life , iving it trying to walk in someone else's shoes... all i can say is this guy must really belive in jimi's music.... i liked the mouth gestures during the end of the song ..... for some reason i suspect it wasnt because hes wacked on acid , but you never know ,maybe hes jimi to the bone and hes flyin high on 7 hits
It would be even better if this guy decided to write his own original stuff, not that this isn't awesome, but I'm sure he could make some amazing work.
@aurosne he is also missing the true spirit my friend Jimi hendrix was no noise maker he got it all calculated and controled This is at a level good for those who cannot visit the cosmos with a guitar. Playing jimi hendrix is not just doing all he had done but its rather finding yourself in that guitar and bringing it out to the public. I have only seen a very few do it the right way or better there are only a few who can visit the stars playing guitar
if hendrix was alive he'd be proud, but he'd probably say. "Man your playing beautifuly, but wayy tooo low" and if this was an original hendrix video and some one asked why you playing so low, jimi would probably say, "man by playing low i'm causing people to listen a little closely now"
thats what tribute bands do, they get bits and bobs from live performances and splice parts togethor or they pretty much use the same arrangments and add a little of their own.
@guitar19904 I agree, tribute bands keep live performances of his music alive and enables fans who werent around then to see his shows. rock music is all about live performances.
Better than the original... :-)

Two self-evident truths guitar players ought know about guitar playing:

2. The closest anyone has yet come to Hendrix' brilliance and boundless originality on guitar was the late great MICHAEL HEDGES.
