@Nojoke88 - He just flips it and restrings it. The other thing that he does, that Jimi did, was remove the pickup cover on the back of the guitar for feedback, and that might also give it a unique sound. But it's really all the stuff mentioned above that he's running the signal through.
@Nojoke88 To answer your question yes it does, and there are many more variables taht effect it. I actually build my own backwards lefty. Check out my video and tell me what you think.
I can't believe (and this IS trivial I'll grant you.. but) how many people get the name of this song wrong. It's Voodo Chile... not Child. Happens the whole time. In the scheme of all things though... worse things to worry about. :o)
@JakeAnnetts Actually, you're wrong on that one. If you go to the Hendrix website you'll see it is Voodoo Child, as well as on the album jacket of the 1969 Woodstock vinyl.
@TheWindyCity I think we are both wrong. I've checked on various albums etc... some say Voodoo Chile, some say Voodoo Child. I guess only the man himself would know. After all, he's been marketed way after his death. It'd be easy to get the name wrong. Like the original 'Electric Ladyland' was accidentally called 'Electric Land Lady' by some guy in the studio. Fact. ha ha
@JakeAnnetts It was catalogued as "Voodoo Chile" (Track 2095 001), and that is the title which appears on the single and is the title referred to officially. This obviously confuses it with the 15-minute song "Voodoo Chile" also on Electric Ladyland.
@nastynash96 I contacted the guitarist - this is what he uses: - VOX Wah-Wah Pedal, Marshall JCM 2000, Dallas Fuzz Face and Uni Vibe...there you go!!!
don't know if anyone noticed but this dude is a right hander and has stringed a left handed guitar upside down, the opposite of what hendrix did.. nice touch i think. dudes good, and they say immitation is the highest form of flattery. or sum shit like that. they're good.
tributes are kind of stupid. cover a few songs of your idol maybe, but performing as your idol - is that really satisfactory? i would hate it to act as mick jagger or paul mccartney professional, even if i would get lots of money for that
@Middlesexful Funny you mentioned the other two. Chicago has two other tributes...a Stones one- Hot Rocks, and a Beatles one - American English. The guy who does Mick Jagger puts on a great show - has the look, the choppers, and the strut! Gotta have the strut! In the Beatles trib., McCartney also has the look, the pipes, and Epiphone bass. This all adds to the fun aspect of the show, but none of these guys, nor the audience takes it so seriously as to be offended for impersonating a great.
@TheWindyCity i guess it mean's something different to everyone but i think it's kind of stupid like elvis impersonators but they are paying tribute so who am i to question it is what it is
@Ronnie631000 they still do. They were in muncie indiana playing in october. Man This dude is one great guy. very nice, and fucking awesome at playing live!
So many people talking nonsense here...This is a tribute band, just trying to make Jimi's sound live on. And they do that pretty good IMHO...I personally enjoyed their performance and their effort is really worth praising. Keep it up, boys!
@johnnyblingblong Personally, I think it add to the whole idea of why people go to see tribute bands - to get a complete picture of what it was like to see the artists back in their day. I've seen Beatle tributes that dress in the three eras of their music, Led Zeppelin tributes, and a Janis Joplin tribute. I think it's great when they add this aspect to their show. It's not regarded as playing pretend.
He maybe a righty guitarist but hes using a left guitar... just like how jimi did with his guitar it was a righty guitar but he played lefty. Jimi is the greatest guitarist and this guy is very good , he puts on a good show i wouldve liked to see that.
Wow, he not only has the riffs down pat, he's got the whole Hendrix sway and gaping mouth open at the right places. If they ever make a movie about Hendrix, this guy's got the role! Looks almost like a twin bro.
Good job but just pointing out that ur playing too fast to feel the music. slow down. Smoke a joint and feel the music and u cud be half as good as Jimi himself. Not saying ur bad.
dood looks like wayne brady hahahaha, but he rips it! who"s 2 say jimi hendrix would be proud? he might be pissed but hey u never kno... jimi hendrix is a god.... nuff said
@cesarvsf Eu acho que ele tem a voz, e ainda bem no violão. Realmente, para aqueles de nós não tem idade suficiente para ter visto o Jimi real, nós aproveitamos essa reencenação de Woodstock, embora não seja perfeito. Algumas bebidas fez melhor, gosto de ver uma mulher em um bar .... ha ha ..
@cesarvsf O nó cego..é um tributo..ainda bem que temos isso pra poder ainda escutar um som legal ao vivo! Temos que incentivar e não faz comentário idiota!
@hork111 Didn't think he was still around! Saw him three times here in Chicago in the late 70s and never heard from him again. I really felt like I saw a reincarnated Hendrix back then - he was that good. He did a full blown costume act with a wig and face paint. At his third show, he pulled off his wig and all this blonde hair fell out - just stunned everyone because they (we) really thought he was black! He then played a few of his original songs, which were pretty good jams as I recall.
@TheWindyCity I don't know if he's still around either, but YouTube is full of his videos. Forget Trower and SRV, I always thought Randy Hanson and Frank Marino of Mahogany Rush were the best at the Hendrixian sound. As you mentioned, Hanson was a spectacular showman, just like Jimi was. Nice anecdotes.
Of course you can not accurately copy Jimi Hendrix, but this is actually scaringly close. It's easy to get upset about something like this, but on the other hand people still play Bach as well and try to do it as accurately as possible. The problem - or perhaps the advantage - is that we have no way of knowing for sure how Bach sounded in his own time. Besides, I've been suspecting for quite a while now that Hendrix was a re-incarnation of Bach, but again that's a bit besides the point here.
wish id been there *sniff* im only 12 and i love all this music! i hate all this modern crap. check out my band. were no Hendrix Experiance but we try!!
For God sake, stop saying nobody can play as Jimi and shit like that, I know no person can do like he did, but that doesn't mean he's the only one allowed to play the song. And remember this is a COVER band, not Jimi himself, so don't expect to listen exactly what you listen when Jimi play. These guys did well.
Even in death you are unstoppable, moving even the darkest of hearts. Jimi, we miss you sorely and it's a shame you had to go. Wherever you are, I look forward to the day I can see you again. RIP, God of Rock--Jimi Hendrix.
why would anyone hate on this? Can YOU play this better? Probably not so go take some lessons and pray to whatever god that you may someday with years of practice, do what this man and his band are doing VERY GOOD! I can only hope heaven is real so I can jam with Jimi when I get there! PEACE!!!
yeah sure this guy isn't jimi, but he is still freakin' awesome and probably more talented than all these naysayers. this is a tribute band. i think jimi would be proud.
@buccaneers52 Because the crowds just LOVE it! People go crazy when they start jammin' out Voodoo Child. Yeah, it's just a cover band, butstill fun to hear live.
Reading some of these comments makes me think of something that Jimi told a so-called fan,when the "fan" complained about not sounding like the record at home,and Jimi said "well you should have stayed home an just listen to a record a ?
Nice and thank you for honoring Jimi, I think that he would also dig it. What is your philosophy on life, that's what made Jimi very special in my eyes.
great cover band, but do you think you can label it with a different wording. all i want is to watch JIMI at woodstock do voodoo child, but this damn video is in it's place. WTF!!!??
Pretty mediocre. I really hate when people do things like this. As much as I hate modern bands and "artists" like the Biebs, this might even be worse. Why try to be a substitute to someone as amazing as Hendrix.
Not that it is a BAD performance by any means anyway. If people want to waste their time with this then hey, they are free to do what they want.
Dudes, this man is paying tribute to a legend... go easy, will ya? He's honoring the music AND the man, which is worthy of the effort. Besides, Jimi himself inspired such guitarists to pick up the instrument as even Jimi himself would be in awe of today: Eric Johnson, Paul Gilbert, Joe Satriani, SRV (R.I.P.), etc. So take it for what it's worth and enjoy...
Overall he's not all that bad but he needs some constructive criticism. PLAY WITH MORE SOUL! OMG, he's a brother but he moves and plays like a whitey. Also, SLOW DOWN! Voodoo chile is not supposed to be played at that tempo. It should have A LOT more groove and feel to it. He should spend some time playing some motown and learn how to feel and play with soul and groove. People forget about the fact that Jimi had a strong R&B background (he played with the Isley Brothers for a time).
@GTX1123 "play with more soul" is the least constructive criticism you can give anyone, you don't that person maybe he's serious as hell in real life, maybe you don't know, but the point being is that a song is not defined by the feeling, if he got good enough to play hendrix it means he has alot of feeling, if he plays it faster it means he has more skill, By all means i think he is a bit more skilled than hendrix, give credit were it's due my friend. dont just blindly judge him with no info.
@Emceetem i cant believe you just said that! more skill than the man jimi! you should really really take that back, think about it and turn it around! and then you shall be forgiven!
@jaccovanderwardt --- I agree, Jimi is always the best, but you don't have to hate this guy. I personally really enjoyed this recreation of Woodstock, and so did the 40,000 or so around us at this event. The band had fun with it and so did we. It was crazy. Check out the crowd at the end of this video of Hey Joe: (search Jimi Hendrix - Hey Joe - 1969 Woodstock 40th Anniversary concert by tribute band AXiS
first god made light, then he made earth, then he made the plants, the animals, humans, etc, then he made jimi hendrix, and jimi made the guitar

Instead of being a tribute band, maybe you should make your own unique band with your own style?
Love Jimi Hendrix though.

Reading some of these comments makes me think of something that Jimi told a so-called fan,when the "fan" complained about not sounding like the record at home,and Jimi said "well you should have stayed home an just listen to a record a ?

Nice and thank you for honoring Jimi, I think that he would also dig it. What is your philosophy on life, that's what made Jimi very special in my eyes.

great cover band, but do you think you can label it with a different wording. all i want is to watch JIMI at woodstock do voodoo child, but this damn video is in it's place. WTF!!!??

Pretty mediocre. I really hate when people do things like this. As much as I hate modern bands and "artists" like the Biebs, this might even be worse. Why try to be a substitute to someone as amazing as Hendrix.
Not that it is a BAD performance by any means anyway. If people want to waste their time with this then hey, they are free to do what they want.

It's funny he has a left-handed guitar when he's right-handed, just as opposite as jimi

muit bom video !! mesmo sendo uma pessoa q acha q é o jimi hendrix sendo q odeio quem se acha o tal !! mas pra um cover é muito bom !

Dudes, this man is paying tribute to a legend... go easy, will ya? He's honoring the music AND the man, which is worthy of the effort. Besides, Jimi himself inspired such guitarists to pick up the instrument as even Jimi himself would be in awe of today: Eric Johnson, Paul Gilbert, Joe Satriani, SRV (R.I.P.), etc. So take it for what it's worth and enjoy...

its a nice way to honour Thé Jimi Hendrix. the "i want to see jimi hendrix once" wish for those who were not from his generation can be real now

Overall he's not all that bad but he needs some constructive criticism. PLAY WITH MORE SOUL! OMG, he's a brother but he moves and plays like a whitey. Also, SLOW DOWN! Voodoo chile is not supposed to be played at that tempo. It should have A LOT more groove and feel to it. He should spend some time playing some motown and learn how to feel and play with soul and groove. People forget about the fact that Jimi had a strong R&B background (he played with the Isley Brothers for a time).

@GTX1123 "play with more soul" is the least constructive criticism you can give anyone, you don't that person maybe he's serious as hell in real life, maybe you don't know, but the point being is that a song is not defined by the feeling, if he got good enough to play hendrix it means he has alot of feeling, if he plays it faster it means he has more skill, By all means i think he is a bit more skilled than hendrix, give credit were it's due my friend. dont just blindly judge him with no info.

@jaccovanderwardt --- I agree, Jimi is always the best, but you don't have to hate this guy. I personally really enjoyed this recreation of Woodstock, and so did the 40,000 or so around us at this event. The band had fun with it and so did we. It was crazy. Check out the crowd at the end of this video of Hey Joe: (search Jimi Hendrix - Hey Joe - 1969 Woodstock 40th Anniversary concert by tribute band AXiS
