Haven't seen a cover of Voodoo Child that blew me away like this since Stevie Ray.
But is it real?
Check out Jimi Hendrix, his set at the the end of Woodstock!
This blows Stevie out of the water . Best version ever ,in my opinion.
Randy Hansen
How in the world does a keyboard player, think and play like a guitar player. I love it. Thanks.
Glad you like it
Since synthesizers came in the game and that’s a long time ago. Where you been all this time.
Yeah man, that sounds a helluva lot like a really good rock guitar!
Look up Jan Hammer.
@HUUUUUURRRR I can’t recall i said this was a synth. All I said this is not new. Like it’s from yesterday or a few years ago. This been around like about 60 years like the guy said. Listen to Jan hammer in Mahavishnu orchestra for example.
The grandfather (Ernst Zacharias) of a friend of mine invented this thing (the Clavinet) for Hohner, albeit without the whammy. Unfortunately, he died last summer at age 96, before i got the chance to meet him. I think he would have deserved at least a Technical Grammy for his inventions (besides the Clavinet, he also invented the Pianet and other instruments), given the Clavinet's influence on popular music, especially in Soul, Funk, & Reggae. It's in the same league as the Fender Rhodes or Hammond B3.
Wow that's amazing. I need to look him up. The early versions of the Pianet are awesome too. Yes definitely an underated classic keyboard. Got to be the funkiest instrument ever made.
Don’t ask me why but I purchased a Pianet/Clavinet about 30 years ago at Sam Ash White Plains New York. It’s very cool to be making music with an instrument that not only has real strings but it has those tines as well…
@@johnnyxmusic always wanted to have a play on one of them
@@LachyDoley, You’ll feel just like Stevie Wonder. You can certainly get those sounds from a lot of modern keyboards but you can probably only get a feel from a real Pianet or Clavinet.
Yup. I agree. there are classic keyboards like you mentioned that have emerged through the years and the Clavinet was definitely amongst that list. They were a little on the delicate side. I'm surprised Hohner doesn't bring them out again. Most, if not all, of the modeled versions suck, IMO. And part of these iconic keyboards have a unique feeling keyboard that's specific to the instrument that make that much more unique. Ex. A Clavinet keyboard feels completely differently than the keyboard of a B-3, Fender Rhodes, etc. and most synths don't have the same type of keyboard as the Clavinet. Plus, it's just hard to get all of the harmonics, etc. of a Clavinet with a synth.
Been a Hendrix fan for 30 years and, Sir, that was absolute FIRE! Awesome.
Woo cheers :-)
Lachy Doley caught the "Jimi Hendrix" spirit very well : bravo !
This is amazing. Jimi would be smiling ear to ear and geeking to this.
Woo sure hope so
@@ulusot Maybe but Jimi never struck me as the Johnny Guitar Watson kinda amgsty player about stuff but who knows.
Agreed.
Honestly what have I just witnessed, unbefrickingleivable.

Lachy Doley has to be seen LIVE! Epic.
ua-cam.com/video/IUDUCTsXPiE/v-deo.html
Just when I think I've seen or heard it all, along comes somebody like this guy. I am impressed.
Hey thanks so much Roy
Imagine Jimi’s reaction if he were alive to see this.
I hope it would be a good one
@@LachyDoley I would believe so... Wow!!! Man, You blew my mind.
He’d love it!! ❤️
@@LachyDoley yeah he'd love it no doubt
he would be proud and blown away
Wow! That was something else. What a performance!
I bloody love it!
I realize there have been many innovative keyboardists over the years, such as Jan Hammer, Herbie Hancock, and (one of my faves) Vincent Crane....among others, but I think Lachy is "inventing" or adapting techniques to expand the keyboard vocabulary. There have been many guitarists to come after Jimi, emulating him almost perfectly, but few (if any) keyboard players. Thanks for posting, Lachy
Thanks so much TG. Really appreciate your comments
@@LachyDoley my first visual impression was you were about to kill that beast. jesus christ! very enjoyable rendition, impressing technique. love it.
A lot of covers of Hendrix sound like a softened version to ease your patents mood… This could be the original.
Don't forget Betniev Worrell
Hendrix was there. Kneeled down, burning his guitar. While passing the torch to this brilliant lad! NFA 😎✌🏽
すごい!こんなことができるなんて。
ユニークなアイデアとこれまでの鍛錬に深い敬意をもちました。
oh my god, I did not expect him to start singing... amazing
Wow. That was a stunning performance. Tone, feel, groove, all of it. Pitch bend wheel has major envy!
Hey thanks Marc.
Crank yr pitchbend up to 24 . Butt he certainly makes the Clavi sing like a Guitar .
Jimi would cry for days if he could see how happy his music has made people and how many people have mastered it so many ways and styles
Well that’s my mind blown for the day and it’s only 6.30am here in the uk. What an incredible performance. Yes I know that the keyboard playing and the sound are incredible but the voice and presence are just as amazing . And the band too. Glad I found this. I’m sold !!!
Woo. Awesome thanks so much Paul. So glad you dig it
W O W ! ! ! I've Never seen a keyboard with a whammy bar. Maybe I need to get out more. LOL.
Surprisingly good job on a Hendrix classic.
Whoever designed the algorithm to drop this in my feed...THANK YOU
same
This man is a MADMAN! Grateful the algorithm somehow brought me here. On my third back to back listen
Wow, so glad you dig it!
If this is not the best keyboardist of the last 100 years I would be shocked. I was voting John Lord up until I started watching Lachy. This is Eddie Van Halen of the Keys!
solid and sounds even better on a whammy clav
The first time I saw this guy he played with the whammy bar so naturally I thought it was just a regular part of the clav and it took me at least a year before I realized it was a mod he had done himself
Yeah it's a cool addition
@@LachyDoley "cool addition" doesn't quite cover it - I'm putting it at way fricking awesome. I love people modding their instruments to do something that instrument isn't "supposed" to be doing. Oh also, props to your bassist and drummers for laying down a tasty-as-heck groove :D
@@LachyDoley Lol. Talk about understatement.
And the other guys rock their asses off as well!
They are killer
Chocked to the brim with dynamics and TONE! Thanks for the positive vibes, Lachey!
Yay thanks Kurt
I have never seen a keyboard that looks and plays like this. This is amazing.
Cheers Jef.
I am seeing this guy at Bulli pub tomorrow night. Looking forward to it. ………Here we are a day later and I have been to the concert. This guy and his band are sensational. This clip does not do them justice. They are much more dynamic and the sound is “fuller” live.
This amazed me honestly.
I feel like the audience didnt have a clue as to how amazing this performance is/was. Or am I just really late to the party and this has been a thing for a while? I've never seen or heard anything like this from a piano. Amazing, Sir. Truly amazing! Jimmy would be blown away.
i believe the audience had to stay somewhat quiet for this as it was a studio recording session with viewers invited
Jimmy who?
It is so hard to wrap my mind around what I'm watching right now. WOW
Brilliant mate just by looking at your face i can tell your the son of the late great steve Marriott legend keep it up mate 😊
This is insane!!! He can literally do cover band members part! Bass got it, drums here ya go, keys really?? Guitar here hold my drink!! You Sir are a beast
Hey cheers mate
I have this dude on my "spotify" liked list and thought the whole time, (until now) that he was playing the guitar!! Nope. I'm even more impressed now I was before! Pretty fuckin impressive!! Well done!!
Hey that's awesome. I imagine there's a few people on Spotify who would think the same without the visual
Steve Hillage has entered the chat and is not amused
I can’t even….my mind is so blown!
Wow, that's one hell of an instrument. What a performance 👏
Thanks so much Chris :-)
Absolutely incredible! The only other keyboard player I've heard be that expressive on a clavinet is Bernie Worrell.
Wow marvelous. As good as it gets. Sung and played on keyboard with a great amount of feel just like the guitar version
Getting to wammy all day long and never going out of tune! Living the dream and sounding good while doing it!
...the indomitable spirit of the '60s. It's hard to see a lot of what came later as much more than a footnote.
Wooooooow and wooooow again, astonishing impeccable performance doesn't even cover it HALF.... waaaauw lovin it puur sec !
Great Job! Hendrix would be Proud! :) and he will join the JAM right away...
This is absolutely fucking insane. Mad scientist level creativity. Crazy ingenuity
WOW! I'm sure that Whammy Clavinet is going to catch on fire one day Lachy!! 💥🎹💥🎹💥
Yes maybe Bahaha
Génial....
Ehi Lachy ! You are truly amazing, I never get tired of listening to your talent
Incredible performance.... First I could not understand why he used the big bar while he could simply use a modwheel... Then I realized, sound also changes depending on where he holds the bar, also he can slap it... + combined with incredible virtuosity... A masterpiece performance... What a show... I'll watch this many times for sure :D
That’s incredible! What a performance - that’s some crazy talent and skills. Whole band rocks.
I just saw these guys play this in Durand, Wisconsin of all places, and it slapped so hard I'm gonna be sending my chiropractor bill to Australia. I stood stage right behind a large Boulder that separated me from the rest of the crowd, so I got to see this gem of a performance from about 10 feet away with a completely unobstructed view of the keys. Knocked my socks off and then put them back on for me. Left me walking away wandering what this world is really about.
Phantastic! 😍👍
Just yesterday I repaired one of the Marshall Amps Jimi Hendrix played. Pictures uploaded on my FB. It´s the Super Lead most left in the Live In Maui 1970 Voodoo Child Live Video. ✌️
Greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭
That's super cool
Not just the playing - but the voice as well! Holy cow!
Thanks so much
Flawless performance Lachy 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I always get goose bumps with this song.
Wow thanks Franco
that dude is GETTIN it. amazing.
Incredible. Loving the hell out of this!
Hey thanks John
Wow!
I'm 62 years old it sure took me back Utterly amazing!
This guy on the orange shaker cracking me up! DON'T WORRY MAN! I GOT THIS SHAKER COVERED!
😂😂
Just a humble guy, doing his part... Someone had to play that instrument, right?
WOW.... Supergood!
the Drummer is incredible
Blimey that was an incredible cover, the combination of a good voice and mad instrument seems to work
Glad you dig it Joseph. Cheers
Awesome, incredible playing and sound, from a keyboard..Honner clavinet. Also used by Stevie Wonder in Superstition.
Good illustration of just how many different techniques go into actual guitar strings
Fascinating......i had the extreme pleasure of watching part of the new location of the pipe organ in St Pats Seminary this morning.❤😎
Very intricate tedious work these guys perform. I was blown away. Plus Chris was explaining how they had to engineer the placement of 60 foot pipes in the cathedral in Salt Lake City i believe it was . Wow ....made my day ! And a whole new level of respect for this instrument and craft . ❤😁
I've (obviously) already left a couple of comments,.. but, feel like adding this one. I have alot of friends who are musicians like me, and they are equally impressed!! I'm a huge Hendrix fan and gotta say "this is one of my favorite versions of voodoo child"!!! Thanx again and keep shreddin!!
Lachy Doley It's an Electric Clavichord that plugs into an amp & has a Whammy Bar that allows you to do Vibrato by pulling on it. Ernst Zacharias invented this Electric Clavichord & may he RIP.
What a legend!
@@LachyDoley I hope the new Damper, Vintage Vibe Clavinet Strings, & Vintage Vibanet Preamp will make your Whammy Clav awesome.
¡Genial! Una maravilla lo que haces, Lachy.
Woooow!! What a band. Instantly blown away by the drummer. And the voice of the singer. And the sound engineering is top notch! I'm a fan.
Cheers Jonathan :-)
@@LachyDoley Just checking out your two latest albums (thx for this optimistic title). And your drummer's channel. Haha! "Gimme some lovin" is a great cover. Keep on rockin!!
I TOTALLY could hear how you could have gone into it around the halfway point here, when you slow it way down with the whammy, so it's now mandatory that you play Sledgehammer as soon as possible with all of these awesome musicians!
He's playing at the Montreal Jazz festival tomorrow. I'll definitely be there..
Hope you enjoyed the show
@@LachyDoley It was great thank you! Hope you come back
WOW,......Again you have blown me away!......It is soooo good,.....Can't believe I get to hear you in the present times,.....since I spent the last year catching up, on years of your past performances. Bravo!
Wooooooowwwwwwwww never seen it! Amazing! I’d never recognized hearing it that wasn’t a guitar 🎸 wow wow wow 😮 impossible to play also on a keyboard …
great Lachy ,very nice slide lever!!! I hope one day you will come to play in Italy, and maybe in Florenc where I live!! Good vibration!!!!!!!
Honestly, I think Hendrix would have been blown away by this. Great job!
Too kind. Cheers
Jimi would be listening 🎶🎼🎹🎸
GENIUS MAN.
blows my mind every time... this whammy and the way you play with such a skill and expressive passion - you're just great!!! loved it!
To jsem ještě neviděl.Ùžasné fantastické paráda.
Damn he played from the Roots of Jimmi Hendrix 🙌🙌
It's like Jimmi Hendrix came back to the world and performing
Wow too kind Muhammad. Cheers
@@LachyDoley That's the truth, I swear I hear Jimi playin' 🎸
First first of all putting a giant whammy bar on a clavinet is all-out funky. I love it in E-flat no less!
Yeah it's wild machine. Yeah it sounds fat in Eb

Caraca Mano !! ! !! Muito Loko ! Excepcional !!
Right on brotherman....kickin that ass......dig...fo sure
Killer version brothers!!!! :)
Unreal thanks
I was incredibly lucky 🍀 to happen upon Chris from Schoenstein at the St Patrick's Seminary performing his craft . He told all about what they were doing on the site and how they were doing it .
I was blown away at how detailed and creative they have to be with disassembling and then the reinstallment . WOW
Thank you Chris !!!!
I don't look less forward to the release of the album (on Bandcamp) after watching this! So badass! 🤘😃🤘
Unreal thanks Anders
This is so cool 😎 sickness At it’s best imagine what Jimi would say and do he would be smiling in the next world
Powerfully awesome as always. Thanks Lachy. 🙏❤️
Woo thanks Pamela :-)
Incredible !
Amazing stuff. Listen to this with your eyes closed, your never guess it isn't guitar.
Oh My god,i it's exelent interpretation, 🎩
This is mind-blowing for the fact that no one's ever done this but I think what's even more mind-blowing is the fact that it took this many years for keyboards to catch up to Jimmy's sound and it's only close but no cookie 😂
That was Jam Good!! I was beginning to think the people watching didn't dig it so much but they did clap pretty good! I would have gotten up out of my seat on this one!! What a cool keyboard!!
1:08 - Did he say he stands up next to a muffin? Just kidding, he absolutely NAILED IT!
muffin man :D
Awesome video. Sounded like muffin to me tho lol
Im very glad I've seen and heard this. Brilliant.
Perfect - Hohner D6 best playing 🎩👏👏👏
Wow, thanks Juergen
Impresionante! Bravo!!! Suena en Colòn, Entre Rìos, Argentina ♥♥♫♫♫♫
Thanks so much :-)
he’s not only mastering the D6 but the Wah as well. absolutely amazing (poor D6 though 😉😂)
Yes the D6 has rough time :-)
Fair Bloody Dinkum, what a wonderful performance, that's right up there with Stevie Ray Vaughan's rendition of Voodoo Chile.
Wow too kind Dennis. Cheers :-)
Love this tune. What a great version the crowd however looks like they've been served a very stiff cup of chamomile tea.
It does make it easy to to listen to, though, not having any ambient audience noise
It's a recording session, & they're wearing headphones, so I imagine they were following instructions.
@@jinglebells8194 Yeah, cool. Not helpful, but thanks.
Stiffly stifflers, I think they need the crow bar!
😂😂😂
He's got to be the best all round keys player. Rips on the piano, rocks out on the clav and takes us to church Billy Preston style on the Hammond and with a touch of Jon Lord!
Too kind! So many incredible players out there
It’s just fucking unbelievable!
Thanks!
Hey thank you so much!!
