It's plainly obvious that this old charlatan is trying to pass himself off as Jimi Hendrix.
Who's he trying to kid? Jimi's been dead for 40 years, and this video wont convince me otherwise. He hasn't got half the talent Jimi had, and if that's a Strat', I'm Thora Hird. Fucking Zimbabweans, what are they like......?!
who the heck is jimi hendrix man, this guy is playing traditional Botswana instrument called segaba, it has nothing to do with your so called Jimi hendrix....
I'd love to sit with him over a cup of tea. I agree with you Andy, he must have a story to tell - and I'll be honoured to listen... He's one of the dying breed... Wow... Some lucky people still have their Granddads! Im jealous!
That's fantastic. He's so authentic. Beautiful. You can find that melody of that song in many phrases of Coltrane's and Cannonball Adderley's solos on Kind of blue.
I am looking for bone and bucket teachers are there any out there or will I have to teach myself?

i wonder how this instrument has to be played... it sounds higher, when the string is longer... that's strange!

Fascinating instrument. It looks like a masenko (chira-watta) turned upside-down.
Sounds better than a masenko, in my opinion.
