this video needs more views, votes, and comments, its a great cover, he didnt try to play the song like jimi did as most artists do, he did it in his own style and it rocks big time!
whenever I watch this video I think 1) i need to watch this video more cause it has some great shots of his left hand and 2) Scruffy surfer Jeff!!!!!! HOT! =P
PLEASE DO NOT READ DONT READ THIS PLEASE DO NOT READ DO NOT READ DO NOT READ swear do not read...I don't even know why I'm participating I guess I'm still a bit paranoid. But really do not read this I swear . Also thanks this was really appreciated. DO NOT READ:This is so stupid... But i love my mom deeply... And i don't want to take any chances. Sorry. If you do not copy and paste this onto 10 videos your mom will die in 4 hour I hat these to. Sorry
i have never seen anybody anywhere play quite like this guy... Fabulous!!! Video quality less than the best but the music totally makes up for the video quality!!!
That was great, great covers are always original IMHO. Kinda like Powderfinger, There She Goes, and Reason To Believe by The Beat Farmers. Some AWESOME covers, nothing like the originals.
U R A dribbling idiot !!! jeff lang is GOLD , esp , live , he can`t be beat !!!! oh , BTW , GR8 covers are the ones that sound nothing like the original , any clown can rip something note for note , it takes ; Skill , balls , style & class to re-create a masterpiece
Wow, I wasn't expecting *that*! Novel, thanks for posting! It is great to hear these new artists on YouTube. Look up Wichita Lineman, for example, and pick the one by a Japanese bar band, The Swinging Doors. You'll hear a pedal steel to die for.
Original version of this song though in a way quite conventional compared to the original, great voice. Prefer it to EJ's - plus he doesn't look like one of the Nolan sisters.
The Eric Johnson version of this song is just so much better he plays the incredible solo exactly like the real Hendrix,This Jeff guy does have an interesting slide guitar approach though.Just does not sound anything like the original.
It isn't supposed to. I don't get why people expect a cover to sound like the original. Hendrix rarely covered songs in the same way as the original... listen to Rock Me Baby and Killing Floor by Hendrix... nothing like the original. This is excellent. eric Johnson's version is just a rip off note for note... I mean he even dressed like Hendrix.
This is a great cover, and I don't think anyone was denying that. He just said the Eric Johnson version was better, which from the stand point of a guitar player I think it is too. What Eric does is pretty amazing considering Hendrix did it in the studio by reversing the tapes to make the solo, for a person to play it note for note LIVE is pretty amazing.
Hendrix played it live too. Note for note isn't amazing either, it's all tabbed out the entire solo. It just takes a small amount of practice of volume control. I admit its a great cover but it's EXACTLY the same and that was a bit of a let down. This is fantastic.
Great vid, thanks for the upload.
A bit of nostalgia seeing scruffy long-haired Jeff again! ;)
Never seen him play a dobro live... will have to look him up again on the latest tour and cross my fingers!
