Did anyone else notice the guy that comes out of nowhere far right stage and just starts playing a bongo?

Jimi was so sloppy and always a distorted mess...I love it lol His playing and stage presence and his way of playing everything with pure feeling is something I will never get to see in my lifetime by anyone else. His playing habits and usage of feedback was just so brilliant. Him and Steve Jones are the reasons why I've been playing guitar for years and years. RIP Jimi, your missed by a generation that never got to see you and im sure generations to come.

@democratusnostradams Lol =) You would think he wished really bad to be entitled to say "I played with Jimmy Hendrix". And so shall be read in his gravestone, "he went to the heaven to jam some more with Jimi. Go Hit that drumhead hard, man!

Jimi's style was to play dirty. Earlier live versions of this song are "cleaner". It's just what he evolved into...a musical genius always and forever.

i heard the hendrix estate is going to realease this concert on blu ray soon i hope they do because it is up there with woodstock epic performance

[SweadyD]

Guys below, I think sloppy isn't the right word, maybe gritty or dirty he could play the cleanest and beautifulest shit I have ever heard... But could then go to a jaw dropping solo with heavy distortion

@tatethompson1234

you got 30+ b/c your intentions were good, despite your ignorance of subject-verb agreement. bootlegs? I've heard them, messy didn't come to mind unless you mean harsh quality

the tone personifies sloppiness but you wouldn't know the difference if he turned the volume down to remove all the crackling and distortion

the reason I emphasized tone being the source of distortion is, your comment states that HE was a distortion mess - instead of tone. english error.

[tatethompson1234]

@daljin1991 Yes they are. Why do you think I have so many thumbs up? Us real musicians know what each are saying and how we mean it. So why don't you play in some traffic. Jim did play very sloppy, in a good way. Jimmy Page is a really sloppy live guitarist but in a brilliant way. I have over 30 bootlegs of Hendrix and let me tell you, on atleast 25 of them he is playing extremely messy. No shit his tone was distorted, Einstien. You can be a distorted mess also, he preferred it. Have a good day.
