Thanks Bandaids, you're too kind. This was taped in the summer of 2005 during the Cream Reunion, thus, I've matured just a "tad" since then! I've gotten my $10 worth from that fro!
Wow... I didn't know that. You know, Hendrix IS my main influence, and i'm not just saying that.
There still aren't a lot of people who really respect him. They just say he's great because everyone else says it. They don't see it themselves, if you know what i mean.
Search for "Jesse K." on youtube, thats me, there is some Hendrix stuff there.
Just squeezing my hands together and channeling air thru the gaps of the "peace fingers", like controlling air thru whistling. I do however use Johnson's Baby Powder to hit the high notes.
Many thanks to the 19/20 who "get this" and understand it's a unique novelty act, not a mockery of the great Jimi Hendrix.
There remains the 1/20 who don't "get this", like the teeny-boppers who booed Jimi off the stage after opening for the Monkees. Lighten' up, light up, and perhaps someday you'll "get it". Perhaps the real mockery is achieved by all the "Jimi Wanabees" on YouTube with the wang bars and fuzz boxes and the one bent note. Dare to develop you're own style....I did.
I've considered Manic Depression & Hey Joe in the past 2 years since this one, but have chosen to "leave well enough alone". Sometimes less is better, so I went the route of the Beatles, Cream and some Broadway stuff. BUT, that's not my final decision!
NO, not handrix, but Handtrix justified by the fact I'm the world's only Manualist and Tire Pumpist wrapped in one...2 separate hand tricks if you will, but just a matter of controlling air flow out of the hands and nozzle of the pump...geez, quite an honor!
Well Bub, funny fart sounds were given birth in the 8th grade, then an octave by high school just by continually squeezing the palms together and building up the muscles. John Twomey was the first "Manualist" and a few of us have been following suit for some 30+ years now...there's a definite market for this on tv shows and comedy clubs.
that is some seriously forward shit... honestly, there is a million guitar players who play jimi but you do it with some proper originality, your da man!!1!!!!
Thanks very much, sometimes this "art" is completely misunderstood....as Jimi himself was...I recall him getting booed off the stage when he opened for the Monkees! Thanx for your comment.
I had to hit pause to stop laughing - I thought I was going to crack a rib. possibly the best performance on youtube. the wah pedal through the mic is genius.
Much appreciated, no doubt the CryBaby wasn't meant for microphones, but also works really well with the Tire Pump (see Handtrix's National Anthem on pump & wah-wah). Peace!
What a fantastic interpreted rendition of the Great music of an era that will never die! Your abilities are OUT OF THIS WORLD! Merry Christmas! I don't knwo how I missed seeing this video before....
Funny you mentioned the armpit...years ago, backstage at the Gong Show, I wouldn't eat the pizza (greasy hands aren't good) and wouldn't shake hands with the armpit players! NO offense!
Just by squeezing air out of the palms and using a little baby powder to hit the high notes. It's best if you start in the 8th grade....there's only a handful of us in the world you know...
You made me laugh mate thanks- nice playing, you even got Mitch's drums in there too. Can't help you with the bad acid, I think you took it all already. Love the cough at the end - perfect
I am left-handed, and yes play an upside-down '92 strat. Never tried hands behind the head though....I'll be happy to try if you've got some leftover bad acid though!
There is a part in my brain which is dedicated to Jimi Hendrix. Watching your video invigorated that part, you possess the soul of Hendrix. I make grammar mistakes but I never make spelling mistakes.
Thank you much, I consider that my highest compliment ever as a Manualist. I was of course a guitarist (left-handed) long before I was a Manualist or Tire Pumpist. Seems to be less competition in the latter 2.
I think of Jimi every time I see Eric live, which BTW is October 9th in Philly. Thanx again.
Thanx alot!
