  • This is an acoustic loop version of Hey Joe. The intro and parts of the solos are improvised. Hey Joe was Jimi's first single recorded in 1966 in London. This is the song that first got peoples attention.
    I am using a Boss RC20XL loop sampler on parts of this tune. This is a one take performance with no overdubs. Just me and my looper. This is the way I would perform this song on a live gig. Although the message of this song is rather morbid, it is significant because of the fact that it was Jimi's first single.

      Thanks for your comment. Yes, I'm still out there playing a few shows. I have been starting to cut back on live performances this year. I've been doing a ton of studio work. I enjoy that. UA-cam was a place I was able to get my musical fix when I was away from live performance for a while. Once I went back to gigging regularly, UA-cam had to take a back seat.

      Jason Fagan they probably expected it to be more "accurate". I personally enjoy guitarists taking some creative liberties with covers, especially Hendrix. As long as you don't go to overboard with it and keep the spirit of the song.

    I’ve searched the interweb over the years to find what Jimmy would sound acoustic. There are nary a couple-three versions (two of which ad 12-string). This is the closest I’ve heard to what I think it’d sound like. What a treat to have found this. Definitely got the grove down and the singing is so soulful. Digging it!

    This song has had so many covers surely making it one of the most popular jam songs of all time. I find your version refreshing and very easy to listen to. You've incorporated your own style and come up with a very tangible offering. To me, the accoustic guitar brings out the best of this song.

    This is recorded live to Pro Tools audio recording software. I am using a loop sampler to record the guitar while singing a verse. I recall the loop for the solo sections. Next, I dumped the audio and video from my Flip Video camera into Sony Vegas video editing program. I lined up the audio from the Pro Tools session with the audio from the Flip Video camera. Next, I deleted the audio from the video camera.
