Grew up here in Bremerton and Seattle [now as an adult] and I've had the great pleasure to see Randy play as a kid and as an adult too. He seriously has a Heart of Gold - this cat does. And he just takes his music, especially the Hendrix stuff, so close to the heart. So proud to be a homeboy of his (and Jimi's). Long live the Great Northwest.
Can’t believe I just discovered Randy yesterday, already I’m one of his biggest fan. I tripped on Jimi since 1969 but now you brought him back to life and I sure hope you come play in Ottawa, Ontario one day. I’m 69 goin on 18 all over again 🎸👍🏼
I am so honored to have born in the same city as these two superlative musicians; every once in a while I can smell, feel, taste, etc... The very things that inspired them the do the great things they do.
crowd surfs while playing lead guitar. and smiling, a piece of cake.....this video is just the best. thanks for posting.... also; i really dig the kick drum, it's so melodic.
Had the privilege to walk Randy into the crown on numerous occasions. Eye contact, then he’d turn and drop. I’d have one arm holding up his waist, the other his neck 🎉 great times!!
One of my all time favorite Jimi songs. To bad Jimi couldn't have lived,just imagine where he would've taken music. Thank GOD for Randy...he is so close to Jimi it isn't funny. I close my eyes,and if I didn't know the difference,I would swear it was a version that was bootlegged or never released before... that good....Ray
Ufo and the Drummer are just a incredible rythm section the musician ship here is just off the charts man . These guys keep it togethwr while randy just goes astro traveling on the guitar man this is truly next level supernatural channeling
Can t believe this guy isn t invited by the G3 or playing major festivals. He is not a copy but a reincarnation. This Dolly Dagger version is an old Jimi improved. I am stunned by Rabdy s playing, this is the best performance on video i ve watched, mindblowing.
I saw Mr. Hansen and the band in Walla Walla Wash, maybe 78 to 81,my memory slips me,it was on the Whitman College campus....It was Superb....Thank you for share
Randy played Building 24 in Wyomissing (Reading), PA a few weeks ago. Fan-effing-tastic. A genuine rock band and rock show. I hope he comes back out our way sometime soon. The crowd LOVED him.
Ufo, this is a most fantastic video. WOW! I am blown away. This is SOOOOO good man. Cheers to all of you. I need to come to a live show. Do you guys ever play at the Hard Rock casinos in Florida? Please come to Florida so I can see your show.
Y'all need to come on down to S.E. Texas. Saw Randy on the Moody Blues Cruise and him and his band were kick ass! Looking forward to the next adventure...
Wow. I knew about Randy having seen him in the nineties when my parents had (old) Sky on RTL (I think), but jeez, I've not been this excited about a performance in years. Straight to the website to find the next UK dates (fingers crossed)...
This Guy is UNBELIEVABLE I am the BIGGEST Hendrix fan and This man Is the BEST Cover artist EVER !!! I personaly believe Hendrix is not dead , it was a fake and he Lives in Randy Hendrix
super take on this jimi song which is in my top 10 songs jimi ever wrote.im trying to get my band to cover but it want be this good lol.great job guys.
His band is in the zone on this one! It's amazing how passionate he is about keeping Jimi's legacy alive. He ain't taking no prisoners, that's for sure. I still cannot believe Hendrix was doing this in 1966! Man, what a grest time to be young and high on whatever floated your boat. Life was cool back then and today it is just boringly sad for young musicians trying to groove. They have no essence of what music is or means. Posers for the camera and $$$$. Randy is as genuine as Jesus! People can smell a lie and I I don't believe the stuff I am hearing today. It is very empty....lost and shallow to my ears. Take me back to Hendrix and all the great bands all along the watch tower. Quickly!
Randy thank for keeping Mr Hendrix alive you Sunday is Powerful,My thoughts Hendrix would be proud I've watched all your videos An Man your amazing what's your guitar tuned too Sounds famnamnial what's the secret to Hendrix pedal board Trust me I will definitely follow you my friend I'm 54yrs old and Man, Hendricks is my go too.Thank you my friend for keeping him alive by the way my favorite digs I's burning candles
@@ufowalter I thought Jimi was dead. more fake news, I guess. 1st time viewer found you by accident...lucky find. whats with the upside down guitar ? no shade, curious as a fellow git picker.
@@danielkokal8819 Well, it makes it more challenging. Randy is pretty unique, when it comes to Jimi. But he could do any guitarist, sometimes he pulls of Frank Zappa, Pete Townsend or Ritchie Blackmore - it´s really weird.
@@ufowalter Mr crappers right ufo, much easier to pull up ya als version than the originals. His family ( notorious blockers) are driving him Jimi into irrelavance.
I totally agree with Mark (below)..I grew up having Hendrix for breakfast to the point that I can recall every note of every song...And every message.Basically the same but never the same if you get my drift.No one can Cover Jimi Hendrix like Randy Hansen because he "embodied" the man... simple as that.
Love to see you guys in New England sometime. Check out the just refurbished Capitol Theatre in Port Chester , NY on facebook could be one of many cool stops!
My Godness, I'm bass player too, my band play Hendrix, but never in my humble life I saw, so perfect performance like this. Please come to Brazil one day. God bless all of you.
Hey Alan - thank you. We would love to come to Brazil. I´ve been there three times and loved it so much. We are working on it, but i might take a while. Fuckin´Corona. Stay healthy and get rid of your president :-)
I was listening to this through my earbuds while doing something on my pc with the browser minimized and i legit thought it was Jimi. This guy is unbelievable. Actually the whole band is awesome, i absolutely love their cover of "Machine Gun".
@@bassboye8959 Yeah, im glad Jimis music is still played and listend to. And your comment brought me back to this vid, i totally forgot Randy was surfing the crowd at one point 😂
Just watched some of the Experience Hendrix tour 2014 and I gotta say You guys are way more on the mark than they are. You nail the vibe and nuance, Come play the New York area sometime if possible would love to see you. Thanks for uploading the video
I agree with you Jperry, I fear that in this matter there must be many intrigues and conspiracies, market share agreements or something like that; It's as if they said: Okay, okay, you're recognized and admitted by "The Hendrix family", but for you Europe, Australia and others, and your country of origin for us. Hendrix's Tour: An insolent and shameless way to deceive people.
This guy is the ultimate Hendrix I love Hendrix and you are Hendrix absolutely vocal and guitar you nailed it.
Grew up here in Bremerton and Seattle [now as an adult] and I've had the great pleasure to see Randy play as a kid and as an adult too. He seriously has a Heart of Gold - this cat does.

I met him in NL and also spoke with Ufo Walter. Really great guys!
probably best hendrix impersonator living, nobody else comes close with sound/looks/voice/everthing, lov it
Nice Fricken Jam Randy
I agree but you have to admit Jimi was much better looking lol and just a cool dude Everyone wanted to be close to him Like a great preacher ☺️
You tell the right words, Marshall
I still don't believe in what I hear from...
Randy! Ufo! Manni!!!
@@dumbiped he does his own stuff as well,
Artistically, tonally and visually it doesn't get better than this. Thanks, Ufo!
thanks, you´re welcome
Honestly this is one of the best covers of this song ❤
Too good for words...slays me.. unreal!

As a matter of fact I'm sitting 3 - 4 blocks from where Jimi was born; then - Seattle Memorial Hospital. Now - Harborview Medical Center. RIP Jimi...
Randy Hansen is the best on the Planet!! You loved Jimi U gotta love Randy!!! Richie Barron
Crazy! Crowd surfing hooked to the amp. & still playing!! HAha! Right on, Randy!

What the hell did I just witness here? Mind blowing to say the least
this guy is great, its like Jimi never left this sphere. that is some killer guitar work. whole band is great!
jimi knows randy...
Drummer looks like Neil Peart, as well!
P
This is a HARD song to play live. I don't know if Jimi himself ever played it live. Nice job Randy!!!
Jimi did play it live - for example, at the Isle of Wight. I agree that this is a fantastic version.
Isle of white version is definitely worth a listen despite what people say about the concert
The whole band is good!They took it too another level for sure!
Oh man....I think Hendrix would have loved it!
Ufo and the Drummer are just a incredible rythm section the musician ship here is just off the charts man . These guys keep it togethwr while randy just goes astro traveling on the guitar man this is truly next level supernatural channeling

Saw him a couple times in the 70's. Amazing. Equally amazing is his dedication to using the exact vintage gear to get the right sound, respect!
I saw Mr. Hansen and the band in Walla Walla Wash, maybe 78 to 81,my memory slips me,it was on the Whitman College campus....It was Superb....Thank you for share
This is fantastic!!!!! Pardon the pun, but this really is a Jimi Hendrix experience!
Thanks - we are supposed to be touring right now, but corona says NO!
@@ufowalter Well then we'll just have to get rid of corona so that I can get to one of your shows!!!! :-)
@@andrewryder1319 thumbs up for that :-)
Amazing!
Honest to God.....UA-cam was playing in the background and I thought this was Hendrix. I'm gobsmacked.
Wow, didn't know Hansen was still around. Saw him twice back in the late 70s at the Zodiac Hotel in New Westminster, BC, Canada. Fantastic shows.
Fucking awesome ,I wish these guys would come to the UK
This guy is awesome! How can you do that!? Same voice, outstanding guitar work and the band is tight as well!!
Thanks UFo for Sharing 🎶🎶🎶☮️
thanks for listening
Randy is uncanny, but the band is great too
That was outstanding randy thanku.iwas rocking round the kitchen . Fabulously done .
Randy played Building 24 in Wyomissing (Reading), PA a few weeks ago. Fan-effing-tastic. A genuine rock band and rock show. I hope he comes back out our way sometime soon. The crowd LOVED him.
Randy, if you’re out there: we love you brother!.. ❤
We love you back.
Holy Magnolia ........unbelievable Randy is a Power of Soul
This can only mean that jimi never died. Right on man.
this dude is the best and makes it fun the whole package
Ufo, this is a most fantastic video. WOW! I am blown away. This is SOOOOO good man. Cheers to all of you. I need to come to a live show. Do you guys ever play at the Hard Rock casinos in Florida? Please come to Florida so I can see your show.

Cada vez que lo veo tocar me motiva Randy si alguna vez lees esto. Gracias!
Randy is absolutely amazing 😱👍
Saw them last week - amazing. Best .buzzing
This is really good, but the Hendrix rendition of this song at the Isle of Wight 1970 was complete GENIUS
i love the way the crowd takes yu in their arms Randy
HELL YEAH very well done
I enjoyed hearing the background vocals. It's a small thing but I appreciate that attention to the vibe.
great sound, thanks for that, and a very solid groove and lead.
Thanks, it´s our pleasure
Wow.
I knew about Randy having seen him in the nineties when my parents had (old) Sky on RTL (I think), but jeez, I've not been this excited about a performance in years. Straight to the website to find the next UK dates (fingers crossed)...
Amazing performance
Please come to Baltimore! There is a huge following here.
Frankly, I think he's every bit as good as Jimi ever was, playing this song ....
This Guy is UNBELIEVABLE

REALLY hard song to pull off Alright Randy
More than a tribute...Randy channels Hendrix like a shaman...a high priest of Jimi's Electric Church
Just watched some of the Experience Hendrix tour 2014 and I gotta say You guys are way more on the mark than they are. You nail the vibe and nuance, Come play the New York area sometime if possible would love to see you. Thanks for uploading the video
thank you - maybe one day we have the chance to play there. That would be awesome.

Randy is the closest to Jimi anyone has ever got! Only difference is one created it and the other imitated it almost to perfection.
Super Great
