    This is great! Well done. I don't think this is the first time I comment on this one. I have just read your description where you say this song is not a Moroccan song! Actually, It just happens to be. Or at least the main riff is from a Moroccan Gnawi song. There is a youtube documentary with Maalem Abderhman Paco explaining how it came about. The title of the song is self explanatory as well and a good starting point as to the origin of the song. The idea, of course, is that Jimi went to Essaouira, Morocco and found Gnawa music. The closest thing he could compare it to was Voodoo hence the title. I will try and find the documentary and a version of the Gnawa song.

    • @HamadaElMnsour
      @HamadaElMnsour 4 роки тому +1

      I have looked for quite a long time to find the documentary as I remember it. However, I could only find a heavily edited version of what I’d seen. You can find that here: ua-cam.com/video/tZq1aOFvynI/v-deo.html You can establish the link between Paco and Hendrix in minute 2.20- 4.18! I know this is the edited version because that blue, red and white stripped t-shirt (at minute 4.18) is what Paco wearing in the long version of the documentary!
      I think the version I saw didn’t make the cut and must have been put on UA-cam by the cameraman or whoever had the tapes at the time! It was in 6 episodes of 17-26 minutes! It was probably taken down by the same person!
      Now, the story as it was told by Paco, is they’d (Paco, Hendrix and a few other guys) ended up somewhere in Essaouira. Paco was tired and decided he needed to retire for some kip! He went upstairs and left his instrument (guembri) with someone else! Hendrix was working on a riff Paco had shown him! He’d asked the guy with the guembri to play the riff! Unfortunately, the guy couldn’t reproduce it, which led to Hendrix throwing a tantrum. Paco ran downstairs to find out what was happening and ended up playing the riff for Hendrix. You can find a version of the story here: ua-cam.com/video/eIvgYCjb820/v-deo.html - minute 18.30!
      Paco doesn’t mention the song here but in the long version I saw, he sang the riff! This is what earned him his title (Tabib L’arwah) given to him by Hendrix himself! I have a funny feeling the title was actually "Voodoo Child" but got lost in translation- but that's just me!
      Later on, I found out that the main riff from Voodoo Child is very close to an intro in a Gnawi song called Foulani! Now, if we entertain my theory, we could set the title (Voodoo Child) culturally, and establish a relationship between Voodoo practices and lilla practices in Tagnawit, which we know Hendrix went to and experienced!
      Different accounts say different things about Jimi’s stay at Diabat beach! Some say 68 others say 69! No one has a precise date! We know the song was recorded in October 68, right after the summer! Assuming he spent the 68 summer in Morocco Voodoo Child would definitely be a direct product of the jams Jimi did at Essaouira! Oh...and Wikipedia mentions that Voodoo Child Slight Return "[...] is Hendrix's longest studio recording and features additional musicians in what has been described as a studio jam." Let's not forget that the song in its live versions varies in length from seven to 18 minutes suggesting that it originated in a trance tradition.

      Thank you Hamada! That is very interesting! So far I have read that Jimi travelled to Morocco when he was with the Band of Gypsies and that is after he recorded Voodoo Chile. Thank you for the link!

      Yes, you tie the top of the string onto the leather ribbon (in my case, an electrical wiring cord) and tie the ribbon onto the neck in a special way.
