  • "A lot of artists now, I feel like they write songs for a market place."

    So, so very true.

  • I love Vernon to death. But Hendrix couldn't be blown off stage by Vernon, or anybody else. That's today or in Jimi's time. There's no other guitar player that put more fear into guys like Eric Clapton, Pete Townsend, Jeff Beck.

    There's not a guitar player out there today that can do that to their peers like Jimi did. You need to check out a video like Jimi doing "Johnny Be Goode" live. Do a youtube search on it. Jimi was a an experience of body, mind and soul. No other comes close!

  • @bjchiniki ... . Sure. I can agree partly with what you are saying. However, one thing is for sure.... . Hendrix is a legend. Vernon Reid ( a great guitar player ) is not. . If Jimi were alive today It would be Jimi's "Pleasure" to play with Vernon BUT! it would be an "Honor" for Vernon Reid to play with Hendrix... ... ... I'm just saying... ;-)
  • @creaturebotman i disagree i think jimi would have loved to hear from other guitar players that he inspired. but jimi had other guitar gods of his own like buddy guy. bb king. robert johnson. vernon doesnt need to know his place. jimi would just ask him to jam with him. music is universal and spiritual!!!!

  • Hendrix

    .

    All others who "do their thing" are just disciples.

    .

    Sorry Vernon Reid. You are great. You are with a great band. However, Hendrix is your guitar God. Know your place dude.

  • Vernon rules!

  • all the comments about which current guitarist is more accomplished than hendrix completely miss the point that none of them would exist without hendrix. there is no doubt that he permanently changed the face of music, virtuosic playing, exuberant imagination, great songwriting, soulful voice...hendrix=genius!

  • @fayettevillin

    bla bla bla ,whatever.....

  • @snezakovic WELL IF U THINK BUCKETHEAD WOULD BLOW HENDRIX OFF STAGE U HAVE NO SIGN OF INTELLIGENCE....

  • @fayettevillin

    you're comment is so awesome,I can just picture you as an intelligent little being ...

  • @snezakovic kill your self!
