  • good job man. Hendrix was a bloody genius

  • You might not hit every note Jimi did who could but the vibe and the feeling of the song is there thats where it counts. Great Job Thanks. Rock On!

  • Very cool, great job man!

  • very nice

  • my respects to you, this is a very cover and an joy to listen to.

    greetings from herman

  • saw Jimi play this in Boston when i was 14? I was a musician at the time and noted that he used a UniVibe for this, In Maui and on a couple of recorded versions he used the vibrato mode on the old Univibe. Remember, Jimi, unlike say Eddie, always changed the way he played a particular song. The point being -- it's all fucking valid ... play on bro

  • GREAT!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! JIMI HENDRIX´S SONG...RIP 1942-1970

  • need to clean that guitar man!

  • finally someone who does this cover while singing

  • Well done sir. I like the little closing touch you put on at the end. Very nice.

  • Great job man, singing and guitar

  • Great playing and great voice. Top Marks

  • Hey dude, I've been looking ALL OVER for any clues I can get to play this decently. How'd you pick it up?

  • I admire this a lot. I love playing Hendrix, but I've always had trouble with this tune and villanova junction. They aren't technically difficult, just hard to feel. Well done.

  • A very good one, my friend:-) Never mind what some other foolish people wrote about it: they're probably only envious of the fact they can't play so well. The world 's full of them...Again, it is a really consistent rendition. Not to speak of the fact that it is one of Jimi's most difficult songs: it's got dozens of different chords and variations...

  • why do so many ppl not state that their shitty little vids are not hendrix and that they are just feeble imitators

  • @fishthing606 hey retard if you want the original.. you could always try buying it... tightwad

  • @JimiRayYng haha it was just a question, how would that indicate that ive not bought it and how could you know if im a retard or not, do u even realise how offensive that word is! i only meant ur obviously not JH so please state this fact so u dont waste mine or anybody else's time, cheers dude and try and relax a little

  • @JimiRayYng haha it was just a question, how would that indicate that ive not bought it and how could you know if im a retard or not, do u even realise how offensive that word is! i only meant that there are so many posts on here that say the're JH when there not, so please state this fact so u dont waste mine or anybody else's time, cheers dude and try and relax a little and definitely do something to change ur attitude towards disabled ppl

  • @JimiRayYng If you need to have it pointed out that this is not Hendrix and just someone jamming around to a Hendrix tune (which he never palyed the same way twice anyhow) then you're a fuckin moron who shouldn't be allowed out of the house without his helmet on.

  • @JimiRayYng maybe you should type - cover - in the title

  • @JimiRayYng haha hows that make me a tightwad, all i said was this is not hendrix so y pretend it is, all u need to do is p

    ut the word cover in the title, simple. thick, ignorant and a shit singer. guitar player, keep trying kid u might get there one day but i doubt it :)

  • why do so many ppl not state that their shitty little vids are not hendrix and that they are just feeble imitators

  • fkn a ....great

  • nice work man :) peace

  • ohhhh yeah !

  • play this at my funeral, and put on the coffin "fuk the system" the shit-stem

  • well done mate nicely done!!!

  • Good Job JimiRay

  • Great, lov the change at 1.17

  • Absolutaly AWSOME!!!! You have learnt this Perfic.

    Have you got Tab for this Mate?/

  • als alter Hendrix Fan freut es mich wenn seine Musik gespielt wird! . great sound, welldone!! Keep on playing that kind of things

  • it's really hard to get Jimi's sound...i think there's a leslie effect in addition to the univibe...on top of that, marshall stacks, heads, a studio...

  • where are the solos?

  • cool tune, one thing, vibe pedal, cannot get the proper tone without it and it is THE coolest pedal ever. Lovepedal is 139, Voodoo Lab is like 140, Fulltone is 250. As much as you love Jimi please get one,

  • I was going to try and learn this......don't think I'll bother now...

    great job man

  • im happy theres some people that appreciate and enjoy the beauty of jimis music. its so melodic my mind ease's and let my mind go to where jimi was in this song. im so eager to learn this jam. thanks for the video spread the love, peace, music and more bro PEACE!!!(^_^),\/..

  • Nice clear shot of your left hand. Thank you, that's generous.

  • You got it ...what I loved about this song - you nailed.

  • very nice cover, heard your star spangled also and you are gifted man.

  • Fucking beautiful job man!! Now I can finally learn this song!!! Thank you!!!!

  • my favorite hendrix song, u think u cood make an instructional vid too thtd be helpful to me lol

  • another good one my friend!!!!

  • is the mic on yet

  • great work man

  • good stuff man

  • Good stuff man, ive figured most of the song by ear. love this song.

    Great cover man, is it ok if i take some inspiration from you?

  • sounds awsome. you are invitet to my summer jam party - great job really

  • One of my favs, sounds a lot better than some of the icons that have jumped on the bandwagon of no return as to say ,as many should know hendrix is and will be the greatest ,ive seen him at the albert hall ,my favourite is will i live tomorrow,i hope you do and post some more like will i live etc,sfx bang on ,well done .

  • Hey my friend sounds pretty good.

  • are you using a special tuning?

  • What is the name of the chord you are palying at 2:41?

  • Nice harmonics at the finish.

  • He used the univibe on that album...on the song Angel he did.

  • eh l'intro est pas complete mec!!

  • Love it ...!!!! Well played.Thanks.

  • Great job !! Nothing has been ruined by special effects as there are none!

    keep up the good work

  • really good

  • Amazing dude!

    Im gonna subscribe you.

    Love, Peace and Happiness!

    :D

  • singing is better than guitar, ruined by special effects

  • Hey man i need your advice: is the Lovepedal Pickle Vibe a good choice for UniVibe vibes?

    You rock and are a true tribute to Jimi himself.

    Peace

  • My version is planned, good job the best advice I give guitarist that want to play jimi's style is not to try and copy him. They will NEVER be as good as the original. nobody really wants a fake clone anyway and Jimi didnt copy people note for note either.

  • sounds like a goat being whipped.

    (no rating)  since this doesn't have a -100.

  • Seriously, man?

  • Well, a sick goat being whipped.

  • Good job!!

  • It's an amazing songs and this is an amazing cover. How do you record this? My webcam mic always peeps because my amp is too loud, even if it's pretty soft. :(

  • good job

  • Good job mate. 5/5

  • I must ask. Are you tuned down half a step down for this? as for the song, GREAT job! it's one of my favorites by him as well. =D I love his story here ^^

  • Thanks glad you enjoyed it , and yes i think i was tuned down to e flat.. or there abouts lol.

  • Where did you find the tab for this?, the only one I found was incorrect

  • do u think u can tab that.. i cant find any accurate tablature for this song.. if u could much appreciated

  • nice man love it

  • great job im impressed nice singing 2also a guitarist myself..i was wondering if u had a link to the tab that would me awesome

  • i think it sounds perfect, anyway I'm sure Hendrix never played it the same way twice.

  • Thanks, its pretty much from memory I listened to this track a lot a few years agao.. its probably my all time fave hendrix track.There probably quite a few things that are not the same as jimi's versions though.

  • did you ear this out?

  • 0:29 i need place a spot a reference.

  • what kind of pedal or effect did u use

  • that sounds like flanger

  • yup youre right its an old ibanez flanger.

    I think on the rainbow brifge/ first rays album versin jimi probably used a leslie speaker.. i tried a univibe but the flanger was closer to the leslie i think.

  • He definitely used a Univibe.

  • Yeah, it was set to the "Vibrato" function, rather than the ever popular "Chorus", and at a high speed.

  • dude this is "jimi" in a new body:) you sing it right and im jeliouse keep it up.

  • many thanks man !!

  • dont reallylike the effect , great job though !! Is that one of thos strats thats vintage made ?

  • Naa the strat is about 20 years old.. it looks older though cos i treat it bad.. lol

  • an ax should never be treated badly under no circumstance, i polish mine in between songs!

  • @JimiRayYng well played mate incredible amount of chords, not badly sung either keep up the good work really enjoyed that.

  • @JimiRayYng nicely done mate , really enjoyed that.

  • which equipment did you use to record this track??

  • DAMNE! I can't believe your skill! This is my favourite Hendrix song, and I know every note of the Rainbow Bridge version! I love what you did with this song.

    Thanks, L:D

  • nice played! Where did you find that tab??? i really wanna play that song.

    thanks

    greetz

  • there's a tab book for the whole first rays album.

  • Check out that octavio back there! Rock on man!

  • perfect tone!!

  • very good !! try to get real tabs, is an other world !!

  • I swear this is the best damn cover i have ever heard. Your singing ain't that bad either :)

  • that's pretty awsome, im trying to play this song myself, and your video its helping me tie up the loose ends on it, i figured out the progression, but was a bit shakiy around some parts. so thanks for keeping Jimi's music alive xD

  • when i say was a bit shaky in a couple of parts, i mean my version, just so i wont get into a mix up here LOL

  • thats ok :-) mine is as well

  • Cool, but its Fmaj7, not F, and G6 not G. To play it you need to stop using a barre and use your thumb for the bass strings it means you can the G6 and Fmaj7, the top E stays open on both the G6 and Fmaj7 chords, and the open A is added for the Fmaj7

  • Comment removed

  • great job!

    But i think you sould not use barre chords just play them the way jimi did. You know, using the thumb and all.

  • awesome job. i wish somebody would put a tab out for this song its one of my favorite jimi hendrix songs. 5/5. dude you kinda sound like bob dylan when you sing lol.

  • hey you forgot to say at the beginning....."is the microphone on?"

    I like your covers of all the Jimi tunes, but this one being like my favorite of Jimi's, it sounds a bit too muddy from the effect and a bit rushed. But still excellent. 4.5 stars from me.

  • And thats how you make a really good Jimi Hendrix cover!

  • NICE

  • Im a harsh critic when it comes to Jimi covers but gotta tell you DAMN good.

  • nice

    it sounds kinda stoned :p

  • Beautiful Man! Keep on playing!

  • Hey, 'kid.....I shut my eyes a couple'a times while that was playing....

    and I just about felt like I was THERE!!!!!!!!!

    (Haleakala...)

    Thanks, bro'

    AWESOME

  • Nice job man!

  • is this tuned to Eb?

  • very good, compliments, please see my blues video and write your suggestions

  • 1:11 - 1:22 jimi didnt used the bare chords look some videos and see how to play difrent (bare chords)great by the way..

  • lol

  • really hard just put it that way

  • can i please have the chord tabs please iv been realy working hard on this and many other hendrix but i cant find a good web site i would realy apresheate the tabed out chords would help alot

  • My favorite hendrix song, didn't know you had covered it, Thanks for this. By the way, in the vocals you forgot "Is The microphone on?". =P

  • Great comment on the microphone comment. I always wait for that part when I'm listening to that song!

  • bravo bravo! you kept it simple n to the point. nice ending

  • Awesome flange :D.

  • Brilliant.

  • ~First time I've ever heard someone use a flanger and have it actually sound good...5*****...~~

  • Its a univibe u need for a machine gun tone.

  • Very good mate! One tip though, the song is easier to play if you play the thumbover bar chord technique which hendrix used ;)

  • Yeah youre right, I 've since learned to do that it does help a lot once you get used to it.

  • Whew, a very nice job. Put down the game control and stay with the axe. Very few have what you've got. Thanks for sharing.

  • I played a strat in a garage band 35 years ago. sold my strat to help pay for school and haven't played since. Well, after watching your videos I got the inspiration to get back into it. I have just finished leaning hey baby by watching your video, you have no idea how good it feels to get back into a bit of jimi. Thanks so much for posting. I plan to try and pick up each song..one by one. cheers!

  • Cool, Glad to be of help. Jimi's music is good for the soul.

  • amazing, i came when you kicked in that old 70's style effect. honestly, could not get any better.

  • wow Jimirayyng i gotta say that was one of the best covers of this song ive heard

    this song is totaly an amazing jimi song

    cheerz man

  • wow Jimirayyng i gotta say that was one of the best covers of this song ive heard

    this song is totaly an amazing jimi song

    cheerz man

  • Thank u very much for this!! You sound amazing! this is by far thebest version on youtube!! Keep the spirit alive

  • show us ya FACE!!!^^^:)

  • omg perfect just beautiful, tell be please, where did u get the tab for this, or if u learnt it by sound could u make a tab???

  • thanks, Sorry but i dont really use tab, i do however plan to do some 'lesson' type clips on jimi stuff soon.

  • hey man what tuning are you using

  • ~Awesome work man..~~

  • Great job!

  • so WHAT is your guitar effect..

    i think hendrix usead an univibe. maybe together with a wah (at least live) for some filtering effects..

    what effect did YOU use.. sounds alright..

    please tell me.. i want that sound.

  • its an old ibanez flanger. I think hendrix was using a leslie espeaker on the actual studi versiion and a unvibe on the maui live version

  • he used a univibe which simulated a leslie

  • Jimi for the studio version used a univibe with the tremolo setting on. The univibe has two settings, chorus and tremolo. He may have used two different rotating effects, like a leslie and univibe or something else. That always sounds good as long as you don't drown out the tone.

  • Right on man.

    Real nice

  • i like the ending, but wheres the solo man? that guitar looks like its been in possesion of someone who can play a solo yanno.

    nice octavia in the background

  • you touch my heart man

  • fantastic! Jimi would be proud! It is wonderful to hear this version of yours since the sound quality is so bad on the live Hendrix versions and the album version is over produced. Such a sweet tune... great job with getting the effects right - ignore that previous comment who said the effects didnt suit the song, obviously he doesnt know the song!

  • i always come back to this,your is the best jimi

  • many thanx

  • WONDERFUL!

  • very nice, i love improvising to the solo for hey baby

  • good job man!One of my fav. by Jimi Hendrix!Keep up the good work.

  • that is very great my compliments

  • this is awesome man

  • that was great!!!!

  • aye bro, do u happen to have the tab to that, i cant find good tab anywhere for it

  • Great Work! Sounds Awesome bro!

  • cool I like how your guitar looks dirty and old very hip

  • Brilliant bro,and yes great camera angle,keep it up!!

  • cool mood music

  • Whoa! Very nice. That Univibe sounds sweet. This is one of my favorite jimi songs and you have really done it justice! Great playing! - Mark

  • I hope I can play as good as you! Very Nice!

  • yet another great video =] keep posting!

  • Very nice - 5/5. Such a hard song, Jimi must have been under the influence of something. There's a version that I really dig (though less than Hendrix's version) by Chris Cornell and a couple guys from Pearl Jam on the Hendrix Tribute release.. Anyway, great performance and also sweet camera angle to help others out. You rock bro.

  • Yes, one of my very top favs.  Well done on sound dublication.

  • Hey J-Ray! You can sing!!! Nice inflection, nice guitar sound, please post more!

  • Nice. Looks like you have a well worn strat

  • Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

  • Pretty good job! Which effect has you used?

  • its an old 70's ibanez flanger.
