That is off the charts. I wasn't expecting that from him. Jose Feliciano rocks!
👍
Jose Feliciano rocks
And flamencos
And souls
And pops
And...whatever you throw at him
This one caught me by surprise. Never would have imagined José tapping into his inner Hendrix and doing it so well! Felice Navidad will never be the same for me again!! Lol.😎
Fil-You Rock!
No problem!
José Feliciano is one high tier guitarrist. I knew he did the classical guitar stuff, but the first time I saw that vid I was like "man, he can really shred too!"
👍
WOW
Never seen him playing electric guitar. Great stuff.
This vid is a gem!
👍
Don't even understand how that's possible for a blind person.Great player! Keep the great videos coming.
👍
Check out Ronnie Millsap. His songs are fantastic!!!
Jose Feliciano was born September 10, 1945 (age 74 years), in Lares, Puerto Rico and is still playing wonderfully !!/:)
Where is his youtube page
Wow! Didn't know Jose could play like that. I've seen him a fair bit over the years and knew he was good, but never saw him go electric. Thanks for the post, Fil!
No problem!
Check out 'The Thrill is Gone' and 'The Last Time' - both on YT.
This is incredible! Jose is truly one of the greats.
👍
How good is he! Probably the best cover of Purple Haze I’ve ever heard! This has blown me away. That’s insane Fil who would of expected him to play something so diverse of what he normally plays! Wicked vid Fil !!!😮😮🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thanks!
Once again, Fil, you've brought us an amazing surprise in Jose's electric Hendrix cover!
☺
this men can play just about any kind of music , country , rock , folklore and Spanish music. how talented....
👍
I never knew he did stuff like this. You are quite the musicologist, Fil.
Yaaaaaas he is!!
Haha thanks James!
...yes indeed..Fil is truly a master at his art...it's such pleasure following him...he echoes the sentiments of the true musician...historically. ...and musically.
That's the first time Purple Haze has given me goosebumps! That was awesome!👍😎🎸🎶
🤘
The intro riff, the first solo.... his VOICE.... all great. I mean, he only hit a few "bad" notes only because he's blind and sort of sliding around with a Django type technique of first two fingers but man, this was really good. You are right, if you only listened, you'd say "wow, this was a very good cover of Purple Haze." I know one song by him. Feliz Navidad....... Feliz Navidad....... etc. hahaha But I remember him from ages ago. HAHAHAH man, he threw the Beat It riff in there! Of course, Beat It is 1982, this is 1985.... of course it was no coincidence of notes! hahaha
Not many can say they jammed with Hendrix. I played one of B.B. King's guitars backstage once and of course met him but I was like maybe 16 or so? and have his autograph around somewhere.
Interesting stuff!
Nice!
First album I ever owned was Jose Feliciano "Feliciano " with Light my Fire
Cool!
Never knew he had it in him. Well rounded is an understatement. Good find!
Thanks!
The look of delight on your face, while Feliciano performed this 'blow the roof off' rendition of Purple Haze, made me smile. Thanks.
what great story of suppuration, for a person to be blind from birth and achieve this level of performance! Feliciano makes Puerto Rico proud
And THAT is why when I was a young pup learning to play way back when Jose was one of my heroes. He used to plug in when he performed with Doc Severinsens' band on the Tonight Show back in those days as well and I remember him doing a version of Taking it to the Streets I personally thought was better than the Doobie Brothers. He did a solo that blew away anything Patrick Simmons had going on back then and Patrick had some pretty good chops of his own. I have hunted around but cannot find a video of that show. If anyone knows where it can be had please let me know, I'd love to see it for old times sake. Anyway, Jose has always been one of the greatest guitar players in the world. Thanks for reviewing this one, he's still a guitar god to me and seeing him reminds me of all those lonely hours I spent sitting on my porch at night, trying like hell to pick like him and Segovia but always falling short of the mark.
Brilliant, you cant help but love Jose, such a great guitarist and a performer par excellence.
👍
Jose like many other artist plays by feel. It’s something that comes naturally with repetition.
This was a phenomenal dedication to Jimi Hendrix. A memorial to his legacy.
He is magic. He chains som of the lyrics. I love him.
Fil this was an awesome video. Thank you for featuring Jose again. It made my night.
Fil, I would like to add a request for another guitarist to feature. Jeff Beck playing A Day in the Life.
Thanks! No problem!
LOVE IT! Thanks for featuring José Feliciano and showcasing the diversity of styles in his repertoire, Fil -- a truly masterful performance!
Playing one of my all time favorite Hendrix tunes & doing it seamlessly, is an incredible feat but, Feliciano is a consummate musical genius so, he can uphold his guitar prowess, through any genre. Nice to see people recognize his genius, accordingly -- didn't José make Billboard's Top Guitarists of all time, list?..
Fil, I am truly appreciative of your informed analysis; you always do an exceptional job of fully exploring the work and the Artist you cover!
The "Midnight Special" continues!...From Harlem, New York -- rock!✌🏼💖🎶🎵
🤯WTF🤯 that was incredible, I’ve never seen him play electric. Those Chileans were going crazy!Spectacular!!🤟🏻
👍
👍
Love how he heard the guitar go slightly off and he tuned it in the middle of a solo.
Jose meant to add in Billy Jean riff., he covered that song. He covered the thrill is gone as well. If you not heard him play Malaguena it's worth checking out.
I've seen Feliciano pick with Country Legend Roy Clark, I'be seen him play a Blues guitar like no other, and I've seen him play Rock, but he's never been included in the greatest guitarists of all time, and I think it's because he's really known for one genre, but if I had to choose just on the best player of the instrument and nothing else, then he would be in my Top Three of all time.
Really Jose plays with Roy Clark? Was a Tv show? ..do you remember what o where? ..two giant and Jose sure is on top guitarist on planet for his wide range like no others
Hi Fil! I really appreciate your love of music history. Too many great musicians have been overlooked. Jose is great!
Amen!
Your Channel,Is Amazing,Thank you for Showing,The Amazing José!!!
He is versatile & underrated.
José Feliciano es un guitarrista increíble , impresionante.
Jose and Jimi played together in London 1967 at Speakeasy club
Fantastic and incredible "wide-range" guitarist. Thank You for add this video. Jimi Hendrix in 1967 goes at London Speakeasy club where Jose Feliciano was in concert to congratulate to him and jam
No problem!
Fil - AMAZING how you keep coming up with the most UNLIKELY of artists who continue to blow our minds even more than they've already been! I would never have imagined Jose could dig into his bag and come up with jamming like this... And I was around when Jimi first appeared on the scene, so it's even more impressive to witness this tribute. THANK YOU. Not so much into out and out head banging is Robbie Robertson, who can take you where the sidewalk ends with his subtle, intricate, tough, badass string work. He exhibits this over and over on a couple solo albums, in ways he couldn't work those subtle effects when he was (with) THE BAND. Thanks again.
No problem!
Feliciano is one of the greatest to ever do it man
To think he played this with his eyes closed the whole time.
He's been blind since birth.
Lazy Kid
Please recalibrate your humour detector. 😊
😂
I just started checking this cat out after reading where he nearly destroyed his career for playing his beautiful version of the so called national anthem here in Detroit in 68. I was 5 years old then. His version of Malaguena (spelling) was impressive, now this. Now I know why Jeff Beck stated in an interview that one of the greatest moments in his life was when 'Jose Feliciano, of all people, came up to me and said he really liked my playing on blow by blow".
wow, never read this from Jeff Back for Jose Feliciano, But its true, when Jose become a star in 60s he was a great impact on other musicians, I remember similar words from John Lennon, Carlos Santana, Keith Richards to Elton John for Jose
They were Not Ready for Him at that Time!!!!lol.
Tell me I'm wrong...please....lol. OMG he is tuning one of the strings at 2:14.
👍
I Hope Galavision LatinTV or Festival of Viña del Mar channel give us the high quality video of this masterwork, Unfortunately this was found in a old vhs with over 20 years...
Holy shit! I didn't know he did anything like this. Electric? He killed it too! I remember hearing him and liking him on the AM radio when I was a kid (I'm old). Thanks for sharing. Had no idea.
👍
holy shit this boriqua mastered that cover!
Yep, and there's them beautful smiling teeth! We can tell you are enjoying the hell outta this one!
😂👍
Unbelievable clip! Fantabulous - and he’s better than most guitarists anywhere. No wonder he’s do decorated an artist. I have to say / I love your channel! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank You Fil, Loved your review of the great Jose. Do more mate!
Never saw Jose do anything like this before!
👍
You should see his version of The Flight of the Bumblebee!
He drops his pick halfway through & doesn't even drop a note, just carries on using his fingers!! 😲😲😲
Incredible. Got loads of his records but never heard him do this before. Amazing.
Great talent! Nice analysis Fil!
Thanks!
Bravo Jose! Totally enjoyed it.I was smiling with you,Gorgeous Fil, like I was with you ❣
That was amazing, I didn't know he could do this kind of music.
This is a mind-boggling performance---impossible to put into words. Jose has such a soulful voice & he is the ultimate guitar virtuoso. His range extends from classical, flamenco & jazz to rock & blues guitar. Listen to him performing The Thrill Is Gone. And now Purple Haze by Jimi!! Jose's career stated in the 1960s & he is still performing & working on a new album in mid 2019----at the age of 74!!! Bless you, Jose!
Wow, made my day - have a new respect for Jose.
👍
My GAWD!! 63 here and have never seen Jose play like this!! you couldn`t have surprised with anything else but this REVIEW!! brilliant Fil. also did acdc hear this before they came out or what 5.20
Have always loved this guy. Amazing!
Hi Fil ..I've been away for awhile..haven't been able to comment as much as I usually. You've featured Jose a few times and good on you that you have. Unbeknown to new generation "rock guitarists " , Jose has always been classed in a box or never been heard of...sadly. Jose once said .." anybody can play rock ". I have religiously followed his music since 1969..from his London Palladium live album...Alive alive O...and anybody with sound music sense can appreciate why he has been called." The world's greatest living guitarist "...it's just a sad fact that it takes a Jimi Hendrix cover..to prove it to today's music generation. Jose has outclassed most musicians from yesterday to today...in all spheres of music. Lastly thanks for doing justice to " thee one and only " ..blessings to you brother..you are the greatest. Best regards Selwyn Katz.
Fil, excellent choice!!... I too have never seen Jose play electric guitar!!...unbelieveable!!!!... I'm changing my previous attitude about ranking players because they are ALL great and gifted in different ways with different strengths and limitations! Just goes to show what a person can accomplish when they find their passion and push themselves to reach their highest potential at it. In Jose's case a very challenging limitation of blindmess...A person does not dedicate 14 hours a day to become so proficient at an art form unless that is true!!🎸🎶☮❤🤘
👍
Lori, search for him playing The Thrill is Gone. When Jose makes a cover, he really puts a personal mark on the song.
@@bobrezendeassis thank you....😁
@@loripond1839 , I am a big fan of Jose. He can go from a full on rock music to a soulful bolero in spanish. He has covers of Billie Jean, Satisfaction, Samba Pa Ti from Santana. It is worth to do a search, his range of songs is very wide.
@@bobrezendeassis cool! I will check those out....👍😁
WOW!!! You Go Jose!
This Concert took place in 1984!! Viña del Mar Festival, Chile.First time tha I saw him play live...absolutely amazing musician!! What a Cover for christ sake's!!
Jose was the first live act I ever saw. He shreds and I'm grateful I got to see him way back then in 1976.
Of all the clips I've watched on your channel, this was the biggest surprise of them all. I'm floored by this.
Cool!
Wow i never heard Jose on the electric guitar before ! Great !
Yep!
Jose rips it up big time. I love his totally out of control feel on this. Dude can do it all.
Jose also does an absolutely amazing version of Mule Skinner Blues. Don’t know if there are any videos of it.
Cool!
Take a look at his cover of "The Thrill is Gone" It is unbelievable. This man is just a musical genius. One of the best guitar players EVER!!!
Trying to imagine him doing Feliz Navidad like this.
😂👍
that made me laugh :-D
LOL, I would love to see that!
No no....we'd need JIMI to cover Feliz Navidad!
Jose's repertoire is a catalogue of superlatives, literally! My vote for the best of all time! The best damn it! If I had to listen to one guitarist for the rest of my life then Jose wins hands down!
Lovely story about Jose's friendship with Jimi back in the 60s. Of course, they both loved each other's playing, but Jose pointed out to Jimi that it was easier for Jimi because he could see. Jimi smiled in that way that he had and someone pointed out to Jose that Jimi played most of his solos with his eyes closed ... BTW, this is the BEST cover of Purple Haze I have ever heard. Jimi would have loved it.
Wow, that was totally unexpected!
👍
I wasn't surprised that he was so good at anything as his playing indicates a dedication to feel - whatever he's playing. This did make me think about you maybe reviewing an earlier musical icon Ivor Novello (whom they named the award after). Rock music is exciting and I'm basically just a rock player but I feel the 30's and 40's guys had the edge when it comes to structure, melodic content and clever lyrics. Here is Mary Ellis from the US doing one of his songs. You often put the oscilliscope thingy on voices - I wonder what it would reveal of her unbelievably accurate vibrato and pitch? People may think this stuff is somewhat chocolate box but it requires vast technical brilliance.
Duh! Here's the link to her. ua-cam.com/video/AGYDTM29On4/v-deo.html It's 1937 I'm wearing a dinner jacket and sitting on the verandah of a Brighton hotel on a warm summer evening smoking an unfiltered cigarette and nursing a scotch and soda. Music wafts out from the salon a quartet of 4 cute little old ladies in lavender are playing this. :)
Wow! FANTASTIC.
👍
Great one!
Jose is very talented I heard that cover of Light My Fire excellent a couple of nights ago I watched reruns of shows from late 70s Chico and the Man was a show he sang the lead in song which is excellent song in English Spanish words popping here and there even the music was played with different Styles inter woven his voice is soaked in Soulful feeling and like you said couldn't see the board and the strings what feeling he must have in those hands to not miss a note even when he takes his hands or the instrument he's right back on in the spot he needs to be amazing
I must have missed that one, thanks! I'm going to try & find it, as I, too, watched MANY reruns of Sanford & Son growing up 70's...
Always disliked his Light My Fire cover.
👍
That was MASSIVELY awesome !
👍
That was awesome!! A true master.
👍
Incredible! Always thought highly of Jose, but didnt think had it in him to do it this style.
👍
Oh my God that was incredible! Jose, I just fell in love with you all over again! What a guitar God!
I was expecting this after I saw your first Feliciano's video. Great Fil!
Thanks!
What a pleasant surprise, I did not know he did Hendrix tunes. Jose' had amazing depth!!
Yeah!
From Puerto Rico🔥🇵🇷🔥
Yes, Jose always had "attitude", in the best, most beautiful sense. Yes, heard Beat It, and Eruption . . . and just dang!!!
wow ... never knew that side of Jose' Feliciano. Your comments about no 'seeing' the fret board and relying on feel makes me think of Jeff Healey of course, who essentially made his own shapes and likely one of the few guitarists that made Stevie Ray Vaughn up his game.
Totally impressive and enjoyable. And Phil i Love you Bro. Youre my Bro keep doing what youre doing.
Thanks!
He's amazing!
What's amazing about Jose is that he's playing blind. He's been blind since birth.
Yep!
This is going to be awesome.
This is a great video for you to share!🤘
No problem!
He is just rocking it!🎸🔥🤟🎶
Jose rocked the hell out of that.
👍
Fil..you've really touched my heart here. They call him ",The greatest living guitarist ". This man is too good for the R&R hall of " fame" ha...because of his Latin following. This man can play anything from classical...Latin...to rock...he is truly unique. ..and the voice to go with it...well done Fil..m.best regards. Selwyn Katz. .
Amen!
Wow ! I think Jimi covered Jose's version not the other way around.
I agree...WOW!!!
😂👍
Awesome performance!. Quickly tuning that string in the middle of a song without compromising the groove....not many guitarists would even dare to try it.
Love it!
👍
God love Jose & Hendrix & Fil!! I got goosebumps listening to him. Thank you!
👍☺
Been listening to Jose for years I’m glad some people are finally catching up of how good & versatile player he is
👍
Never knew he had it in him. Great one Fil!
No problem!
Pil love the videos. You are teaching me a lot about what to look for in a guitarist but not being a player myself I don't know what you mean by some of your comments. Maybe you could do a video on what "hammer ons" "pull offs" and "alternative picking" is and show us dummies what you mean. Maybe you already have if so could you give a link to it? Thank you. Rock.
Thanks John! Hammer on - when you pick the string, and then thrust a finger onto a string, making an audible note but not having picked the string again. Pull off - when you pull the finger off the string and fretboard making an audible note without picking the string. Alternate picking - picking the string with an up, down, up, down pattern continuously ☺
Thank you very much.@@wingsofpegasus
A true master at work/play ! 🎸
👍
BEST hendrix cover i have heard
I learn something new everyday. Just goes to show the adage “you’re never too old to learn something new” is true. I knew feliciano was talented. But I didn’t know he was TALENTED! Excellent video and analogy. Glad I didn’t skip past it thinking I knew what there was to know.
ROCK! 🤘🏼
Cool!
Jimi would be proud! Great video!👍😎
👍
