@beeroosterm I think that Jimi's version cannot be used for comparison because it even sounds like a different song (I love it). However, of all the versions that sound like the "real" Johnny B. Goode, Johnny Winter is the champion (at least in my opinion)
This guy is really good, Johnny Winter knows how to play and he plays it better. This guy is fast...he is one of my favorites... In those days everyone wanted to be the fastest, Johnny Winter put it together and knows how to play it...... from JPN YFA
This is too cool.. my second favorite version of this song,of course Jimi s version is just over the top! these were when musicians were full of real talent
Johnny is indeed awesome - mistakes and all....

@PepeMoreno49 Jimi was an alien. His In The West version was a turning point in my musical life.

Hendrix's version from "In the West" album is THE definitive version. It's beyond the pale....
