I am a MASSIVE Hendrix fan and I can't stand listening to other guitarists playing his music. They just don't get it right... Randy on the other hand - WOW!!! If you close your eyes, you'd swear it was Jimi. Saw you in Melbourne in 2016 - took my breath away. You are a very special artist - thank you so much!
I’ve played in bands since I was 15 (I’m 60) and have seen then them come and go. Hendrix players, Elvis impersonators, etc. and I’ll give this man his due props. He has worked hard, right down to the little things. He’s the best I’ve seen.
Randy was playing at a club so I dropped some acid (I was in my 30's at the time, now I'm in my 60's) and there were times he was playing Hendrix songs note for note less than a foot from me. I was tripping my ass off and enjoying every moment of it. Hell, I went the next night did the same thing and saw his second show.
The problem I notice watching other guitar players doing Hendrix is they don't nail down Hendrix's rhythm techniques. They want to get to the solo and wild out but the rhythm and those little subtleties get neglected. Mr. Hansen has good rhythm techniques to play Hendrix's music and this song is no easy task to play and sing and insert those lit nuances. Cheers mate 🍺🍺
One of the first things that stands out to me - Randy Hansen is right-handed, but plays a left-handed guitar strung for the right hand, vis-a-vis ‘upside down.’ Now THAT is attention to DETAIL.
hello !! ....my #1 Hendrix song....even Hendrix didn't played it live....Randy Hansen _ I love you for this....Thank YOU....and your Band.... 73y-old-Hippie-and-Yogi from Austria....Love, Peace-&-Happiness ☮~el~🕉~mar~✝
The band does a great job on this version of this song. One of the greatest pieces Jimi ever wrote and The Experience recorded. Randy plays it great and captures the spirit and sound very well. The band is great. The effects and sound are done great. He has really thought it out and plays and sings it very well, it is not easy at all, very well done. BRAVO!
I had the honor of opening for Randy in Chico Ca. at Cabo’s around 1978! When I finished I was right at the edge of the stage and he bent down during a song and had me work the whammy bar!!! Super nice guy too. He was really good then….but here….I’m speechless!
Thats really one amazing piece of art.Its crazy how Randy and the whole team capture the spirit of Jimi Hendrix!Yuo show to everyone the highly perspective fof him.No one could reach that peak ever :)
Your playing is unreal. I don't understand why people in the U.S. haven't pick up on your music?, or maybe you haven't visited the EAST COAST with it. Doesn't matter where and when you play it, It's sounds up to date. remember..... Hendrix started his first gig in Washington D.C. and from there it spread like wildfire. I seen it happen. Nobody has heard of you on the eastcoast. bout time to get known here in the East. Tittle your next album " RANDY HANSEN UNLEASHED IN THE EAST" scobieakalinkwrayband Md.
i think JH would approve of RHs version.. .js mindblowing that Randy Hansen has strung his Righty Strat in reverse(JH Strat was a right strung as a left mind you...)..
I have seen Randy Hansen live 28 times. He is the greatest musician I have ever seen. His love of music is COMPLETE. His control is complete. His vocals are complete. And...he is a complete gentleman. Randy!
je cherche un concert pour ce type j ai trouver en Allemagne le 27 avril 2021 je monte avec mon fiston si leurs système de grippe de mes deux est passer .....
Jimi looks down and wispers, well done son! Best psychedelic bluessong ever!!!

Yea his little tweaks and wrong notes that kinda just work lol
I regret not seeing him in Melbourne but hopefully he'll be back one day before he gets too old.

A studio masterpiece that never got to see light of the stage. Nice!!
My all-time fave J.H. song which Randy and Ufo so graciously played for me on a Moody Blues cruise. I will never forget it

Of you loved Hendrix, you have to love Randy. He is the living spirit of Jimi Hendrix. Nobody else comes close.

When you have heard Randy Hansen , you aint going back. That s a true fact.
Outstanding performance Randy!
Randy like Always Nails It with this Underrated Masterpiece
Just close your eyes and just listen without looking at this man.....................WOW!
The band does a great job on this version of this song. One of the greatest pieces Jimi ever wrote and The Experience recorded. Randy plays it great and captures the spirit and sound very well. The band is great. The effects and sound are done great. He has really thought it out and plays and sings it very well, it is not easy at all, very well done. BRAVO!
His masterpiece. I'll never time of hearing it despite the 50 years, hearing thousands of times,
and quitting the drugs.

Looking for the original on UTube and came across Randy Hansen.....Who else could capture Jimi's spirit like him?
my all time fave JIMI song - and my favorite version of it - performed by these awesome dudes! S U P E R !
This........ Is EPIC!!! Thank you......
And he's mastered the flaws of the tuning technicalities of a Stratocaster vibrato as well.
Thats really one amazing piece of art.Its crazy how Randy and the whole team capture the spirit of Jimi Hendrix!Yuo show to everyone the highly perspective fof him.No one could reach that peak ever :)
Great cover . Keeping Jimi's music alive . Awesome job .
Its just amazing to hear so many tracks uwouldnt think possible thanku 🙏 randy
Yup many famous guitarists have covered Hendrix but this guy dedicated his entire career to it, respect.
And no Eddie Kramer! Incredible.
I am glad he covers this great song!!
Incredible playing! It took my breath away!
I had no hope anyone could ever do his music again. But you are doing a very, very good job. Thank you.

Nobody compares and Jimi didnt play this live.. just really killer.. Hope everybody is good

Yes he did play it live. And Mitch pushed him during a solo, playing faster. It was insane. I can't find it now!!
That was really great!
..love the the bass drum eye motiff, from one of Jimi's jackets.

Randy, come to England please !!!!!!!

That sounds better than the orginal, I think!!!
Thx RANDY !
Hendrix loved covering other artists so I’m thinking he would really love this…
Saw Randy Hansen in ‘84. Phx az
Only one Jimi Hendrix,but this guy is damn close
Watched him set up once. One Marshall amp was wet the other dry.
Dam I wish he’d come to the USA I’d be there
I wonder what the percentage of "Hey Joe" covers to "1983" covers is.
i play hey joe all the time.. i wouldn't even make a joke about trying to play 1983 let alone even attempt it!
I have seen Randy Hansen live 28 times. He is the greatest musician I have ever seen. His love of music is COMPLETE. His control is complete. His vocals are complete. And...he is a complete gentleman. Randy!
Sounds and plays exactly like Jimi. If u think Jimi is number one all time where does Randy rank??? Gotta be top 5
This Twin has som'th in the real ...he's very nice , just , keep a bit more with Ya'self ...and Miracle overcomes !!!
The chance to get to play In The masters finger tips !!! Not Bad.
4:40 sounds like "Third Stone From The Sun"...............
6:39 genius bass riff
noticed some of it he couldn't play,some stuff only jimi can play,but great job by randy-cut it pretty close-grea tune
It is cool men
