Lyrics:
Purple haze all in my brain
Lately things, they don't seem the same
Acting funny, but I don't know why
'Scuse me while I kiss the sky
#TheJimiHendrixExperience #PurpleHaze #AreYouExperienced #OfficialVideo
If he ain't your favorite guitarist, he's your favorite guitarist's favorite guitarists. FACT
Yeah, Tim Henson.
But he is my favorite!
Yeah, John Frusciante would ask him to adopt he. But I have to recognize, Hendrix is just a legend.
Yeah at first i do not appreciate him because of his chord E7#9 that sounds abnormal for me at the beginning and his style that is noisy. But when i became a music major and understand every musicians i already understand hendrix's style and is wild. Turned out to be one of my influences in guitar as a musician he is very important and Bach of the electric guitar.
he 's like Keith Moon !!!
His playing is so effortless he probably finds walking harder
Lol yea
Way to put it😂
If I was high as my man Jimmy I would find walking hard too
Spongeboob 69 he practiced like 6 hours a day
Spongeboob 69 Sounds cool, all the more striking for his flamboyant attitude, and undisciplined nonchalance, but his fretwork is sloppy, and not anything other guitarists couldn’t do, were they high, or simply just dicking around.
I am 69 yrs old I saw Jimi twice in Houston. Wish you all could've been there.
must've been quite amazing watching him perform
Ugh so jealous! I bet it was amazing!
@@heyitsalannaluv one benefit of being Old.
@@heyitsalannaluv you need see a dc Shot down in flames, I did not get to see Bon Scott unfortunately. Incredible. Especially today. One time I filled sa lol une bottle with 100 proof schnapps to get it in concert. Then next week I forgot and put in my eye. OMG burne
@@heyitsalannaluv one benefit of being 69 yrs old and not being in Nam.
I've never seen a man more comfortable with a guitar in his hands than Jimi.
Prince?
@@mrmrsmarshall9110naw jimi solos
Steve Vai
@@kid206511 Steve Vai looks rather uncomfortable on guitar. Have you seen the faces he makes?🥴😵🤤
He speaks guitar...
No one ever looked more natural with a guitar in his hands.
This is so true. Like it was a part of his body. What a legend.
With hands that size, he could also do things with his thumb that simply aren't possible for others.
Search...Buckethead
@@billplaney2585 daaamn. I realized that just now
@@tomo2095 Makes one modify ones own definition of "talent" if a significant component of having it has to do with what kind of body you are born with, rather than what effort you put into mastering the particular skill.
All those famous, dead musicians and authors and actors are not really dead. They’ll be dead when they have touched the last one of us, and that won’t happen in a long time. The last fan of Jimi Hendrix is not yet born.
HEll YEAH!
Art like this will only die when humanity dies
Was actually having a bad trip on mushrooms one time when Voodoo Child came on. It took me to another universe, and I realized exactly what you are saying here, that Hendrix is not dead, because he is profoundly impacting my consciousness and communicating with me in real time through his recorded music. It's like he was there in the room, in my head, as real as any person. The experience was much more of an intuitive realization that cannot be captured in words. I just went around telling people Jimi Hendrix had taught me how to achieve immortality. The rest of my trip was a good one.
@@Reality4Peace and that's why you shouldn't do drugs, kids
@@liru6869 Lol. Well psychedelics are definitely not for everyone. And I wouldn't recommend using them as a party drug. Research has shown that when used in a structured environment with a experienced shaman they can have great therapeutic properties. Many cultures have used them ceremonially and therapeutically for millennia. Personally, I've only used psychedelics twice and not again for the past 5 years. Both times have triggered anxiety and for me it's not worth it. They're not toys. Though, I am extremely grateful for the positive experience and insights that I did have while under the influence and can say I'm a better and deeper person for it.
this is what guitars sound like when they reach their climax.
+Clashofclans1985 toca bien culero jajaja puro lil wayne
+Dilan Martinez nomames Lil es el dios d la guitarra XD
+Clashofclans1985 perfectly described.
My ears climaxed with my guitar sitting next to me. Nobody else plays when Hendrix is. We all shut up and listen. .
literally and figuratively accurate
Anyone in 2024 🎉
私は日本人でこの曲が大好きで自分でもコピーして弾いたりしてます👍🏻👍🏻🔥❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Now😊
Always
Yes🥰🥰
I'm not going to give any of the, "le wrong generation" bullshit because I love a lot of today's music, but damn, I wish I could've seen Jimi live.
fr todays music is great but seeing him live would be an amazing experience especially if i was high as fuck
+MindMash5647 stay noided
ben waterfall Oh shit I'm feeling it
+blackdragonthebad Depending on your reasons. I've seen a lot of people who say they wish they were born in the thirties or twenties because life was so much nicer and simpler back then. I'm sure those people would have loved to live through the Great Depression, the Dust Bowl, and World War II. Most of them imagine it would be just like the Great Gatsby, but at that time very few people were that rich.
Then you get people who say they wish they were born in a different time because, "music was good back then". This I find ridiculous because there has always been good music, and there has always been shitty music. NOTHING HAS CHANGED. There is still amazing music today, just like there was shitty music in the '60s. As a matter of fact, there were people in the '60s who though The Beatles had ruined music, and wished they could go back to, "the Golden age of music".
Lastly, wishing to be born in a different time is a waste of time, because for one thing, the grass is always greener on the other side, and of course, you will never be able to be born in another time. Getting upset about it is a waste of brainpower.
+blackdragonthebad I can see where you're coming from.
Hendrix was just an alien who visited earth on vacation and had to go back to his home planet.
Page Was God you meant angel.
Same for Randy Rhoads
Stop that.
Ironic cuz he actually claimed to be an alien when he was alive (no joke)
Wow, Sir Lancelot!
Maybe he was!!!
The 1 and Only!
I’d debatably say he could defeat a man in the mirror
Yeah but first he would need some gold experience
Rip fugo
I come this video because stand of Fugo.
He invented infinity ;)
Yep, but only with the help of some moody blues
Technical skill on the guitar is one thing but this man had something every artist strives for. He just had it.
Originality. Like yourself.
Jimi did not play music it flowed from him.
Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton are the only guitarists who became ONE with their instrument. Nothing compares with them.
@@TiggerToo27damn. Only them two?
Technical....Already overflowed Eddy van Halen and etc.But Jimi and his music is a statement. Top.
Right after the song, the guitar asked Jimi for a cigarette
-just hope it was over 18
Haha......fantastic answer !!
Lol!!
Underrated comment
That's the best lol right there original like he totally made his guitar orgasm in sounds haha 💯 truth right there
People who saw him live back then don't know how lucky they are. They saw a true genius at work.
i know man... we can go there with our intuitional nature now.
+RebelThoughts82
yes I do;)
+RebelThoughts82 I'm pretty sure they eventually realized how lucky they were lol...
+RebelThoughts82 i was both lucky and fortunate. i saw him twice in california; at the hollywood bowl in 68, and then at the forum in 69. everything you see on youtube is a nice reminder, but being there - no words...
+Edward Badalian (Initiate) I'm pretty sure there were some that some realized his skills as he played.
Fun Fact: David Gilmour from Pink Floyd got the guitar strap from this guitar as birthday gift from his wife. He used it on most live shows.
Thanks!
Woah that's cool!
Fun fuct II - this is that post, you'll find in comments more usefull links: facebook.com/gilmourishofficial/photos/a.406099106092/10158810120106093
What’s the name of the strap
Why do poeple spell his name More and not Mour??
My mother told me that I would be deaf by age 50 if I didn’t turn Hendrix down on my stereo. Well, I’m 74 and deaf in my left ear BUT I still listen to Joni with my right ear. He’s definitely the Father of the electric guitar. No one can ever replace him.
So she was half right?

*Jimi Hendrix tries to use his stand*
I think that god just needed a kick ass guitarist in his band so he took jimi .
too true. r.i.p. Jimmi
+Jay Star wait, who's on drums
drummer would be john bonham
+nathan kimble I thought Mitch Mitchell was drums for the Experience, was it a different drummer that time
+Alfred Palmer in heaven i meant
Can we all appreciate how the drums complement jimi
lethalkingkez Mitch Mitchell. The best man for the job.
Mitch was Jimi's perfect drummer. His Jazz influenced free style works so well within the 'power trio'. Buddy Miles is a great drummer, but he was all wrong for what Jimi was doing. Mitch is a very overlooked musician. Personally I think this line up was the best that Jimi had. I was never a fan of Noel Redding's playing. Billy Cox's playing was exactly what Jimi needed. Pity he wasn't there from the beginning.
Appreciate the whole 'experience' obviously hendrix kicks complete ass. Ya fault the rest of the band.
I liked and it's so true, what a read few comments back. Hendrix fans are been born everyday and that will be case for a very long time
I sadly can no longer appreciate any drummer except John Bonham anymore after listening to LedZeppelin songs. The feel is just damn
Totally. Mitch Mitchell and Eddie Kramer meeting Hendrix is up there with John Lennon meeting Paul McCartney and George Martin. Mitch and Hendrix work together musically like John and Paul, but no one really notices the drummer, when the front man is playing a guitar with his teeth
Hendrix started a school that nobody graduated from, and nobody ever will. The one and only
Look out for Eric Gales and you'd have a smile on your face 😊
What I love about Jimi is he doesn’t try to hit every note perfectly but what he does play sounds so unique it’s more perfect than perfect.. if that makes sense
it can sound that way because he uses a lot of distortion but he hardly misses a note, he is the best for a reason ;)
it makes perfect sense.
emotion over precision
@@jadon_clews totally agree
'since' doesn't make 'sense. OK, I'm allowed to be silly and I'm seventy.
RIP the three members of The Jimi Hendrix Experience
Jimi Hendrix (November 27, 1942 - September 18, 1970), aged 27
Noel Redding (December 25, 1945 - May 11, 2003), aged 57
Mitch Mitchell (July 9, 1946 - November 12, 2008), aged 62
You will be remembered as legends.
Billy Cox is the bass player on this performance.
Yeah ! Rest in peace, the best of all
@@sjlyons100 That's right. Hendrix is backed by Cox and Mitchell here (half of Gypsies). This is post-Experience, and this July 4th, 1970 Atlanta set included new "solo" songs like Freedom. Interesting that "Hendrix" is not even in the video title!
great band, they are missed
What about band of Gypsy's?
Why my pfp look like this performance
It's as if that guitar just grew out of his body and became part of him.
basically
BEST I'VE EVER HEARD IT PUT!
that sounds rite his gituar was part of him. So ahead of his time. nobody has come close to his genius. WOW✌
Hahahaha thats the best thing ive heard 😂 so true
As Bill Hicks once said: "Jimi Hendrix played his cock."
Purple Haze kicks more ass than 80's metal.
i love 80’s metal n all, but Jimi Hendrix’s shit is a diff type of legendary 🤷♂️
As a high kid in the mid 80s, and as someone who learned to play and to appreciate the guitar, metal (music) wasn't that bad; it's the imaginary dark culture and it's the unintelligible lyrics that I wasn't into. Some of the most talented guitarists went into heavy metal or came out of that sub-culture. Most heavy metal music were terrible, just like most non-heavy metal music. But, again, some of the guitar solos --- some Malmsteen speed; others average speed ---- created for heavy metal have been sublime...
@@kiabtoomlauj6249 I hated 80's metal too because back then I thought playing guitar and drums that fast along with urgent screaming vocals was just stupid. But i guess I got tired of softer rock and pop and began desiring music that sounded more extreme. But Hendrix never dies.
This song is longer than Fugo’s screen time
oof
Here's hoping for a Purple Haze Feedback OVA.
@@bacca4813 purple haze feedback
You had to do it to our boy Fugo.
f
If this guy could have played the guitar for 20 more years his skill level would have destroyed the globe by increasing global warming to unsuitable levels for humans. He was that fuckin good and was gone at 27!!!
+Nova Knowself Exactly! Kudos on that statement, he was genius.
He only played 12 years of guitar, gosh what a sight it would be if he was still alive today...
The so-called 27-group were presumably all assasinated. Jimi died of an "accidental" overdose of the sleeping pills his girl was using.
Very likely she had the dose of those pills hightenend by her doctor. Probably without Jimi knowing about that, coming home from a performance.
Now.
Start thinking.
It was/is, Michel is talking about conspiracy theories.
Hell yeah.. I totally agree with you..
A left-handed person playing a right-handed guitar virtuously, he never studied music (he learned to play self-taught) and lived in an age where having black skin was being little less than an animal. Humanity is amazing.
@@kawaiitoxikk3471 okay
Most of guitarista are self-taught most of us too don't know a single sht about music sheet
He sold his soul my dad was friends with him he told me lol no one ever believes me but whatever
@@imbranded8591 but now we have way more resources than they had in those days. Jimi just played what sounded good
@@jamesharris3746 Nobody believes you because you're either insane or lying
People don’t understand this is the man who started it ALL. He completely took the electric guitar and reinvented it
I do.

When the grim reaper came for Jimi the first thing the reaper said was " can I get an autograph? "
Nailed it.
I bet even the reaper was way to excited to met him. “Oh Fuck it’s you!”
He probably had his guitar with him
funny because Jimmy died of an overdose so the grim reaper probably didn't get his autograph
Julio Martin araujo he probably had to dislodge the vomit in his throat before he could ask anything
in some ways its kinda sucks being 65 yrs old but I was there watching this concert...started with big fireworks display as it was July 4th. After fireworks he immediately started and first song was star spangled banner..
+jim wilson .... damn right I was there ... I remember that SSB despite the chemical impairment at the time!
Taste of Indie Collective I am trying my best to figure out what SSB stands for but I'm coming up blank..do you remember the act that came on after Hendrix and did surprisingly well considering they had to follow Jimi? I remember wishing I wasn't quite so stoned as I was wanting to remember every note. I have always told people I thought he played really good that night and was "on". Now that I've heard that night again I know I was right and wasn't just being impressed because it was him. I also went to the Atlanta Pop Festival the previous year where I saw Led Zepplin for the first time and I didn't even know who they were till they came on stage. I sure knew after that.
jim wilson SSB = Star Spangled Banner
+jim wilson If i don't die before it, i'll be 65 some day and also be 65 will suck then, (i don't know it yet) but i won't ever get to see something like that, you should be glad to be 65 now and not in 2048 like me, i didn't get to see any of those legendary bands but Black Sabbath 2 years ago, no musician that i like is under 55 years old, much of them will die before i see them, so man, i envy you for the chance you had. Congratulations
Federico Llerena
Thanks but don't think so negatively..Its easy to look at today's pop scene and thinks nothing is happening in music but I think that would be a mistake. Every generation has musicians that are groundbreaking one of a kind. I never got to see Mozart or Bach. The difference is you have to sort thru all the noise to find the types that are innovative and brilliant. It doesn't have to just be in the rock world either..music is constantly morphing and there will always be some new genius come along that is special..You may have to search a little harder and they may not have millions of fans but they are out there. Stay healthy, keep learning and 65 can be the best time of life..I'm having quite a great time of it myself. Having said all that it was cool seeing Jimi and Janis Joplin 2 times and the Doors to mention just a few..
It doesn't matter who is the best ever. What matters is that Jimi got more out of electric guitar than anyone else before him. And he was always pushing himself into new territories. It is sad that we never saw his full potential.
...yes, thanks.!...yet may it be said/to "posit": that ( full ) potential was shown/witnessed/INDICATED 👉 let us BE...thankful, & joyful---"❤'you will be suprised' ".!🧖🙏
I did
This is bad ass, far out, edgy as hell in 2020. Imagine people seeing this in the late 60s?? People must’ve thought he was from another universe (which he probably was)
We did, he is a legend and I was heart broken whe he died so young, so many of them did
Saw him In June 1970. In April of the same year I saw Led Zeppelin and in August The Who. Led Zeppelin and the Who were great. Hendrix, all I could say is I was never so mesmerized at a concert and never been since, and I've seen many. You were transformed to his world and it definitely wasn't this one.
Right you are. Not possible to understand at17 yo.
We did ....
For sure, he came to our planet and gave us something unique and then left us as quickly as he came
Yes son there once was a time when rock gods roamed planet earth.

@@ffffdsd Yeah i know that,im trying to tell Kori a reference too mate
Im fed up with these, who are the greatest guitarist polls.. there is no competition with this guy. He was and always will be the greatest !
truth
Yes... it doesn't matter who you are, what era you're from, what particular musical form you're into, how you yourself are in YOUR musical form.... upon hearing and seeing this guy, like this... if your FIRST THOUGHT is not "This guy IS A MUSICAL GENIUS," then you're not serious about music.
And this guys DID NOT EVEN REQUIRE MUSICAL SHEETS, which he never learned to read in the first place. It's all practice, musical instincts, and 100% memory works!
And still ranked no1 in 2024
I will never understand how he can seamlessly switch between a rhythm riff and lead riff outta nowhere AND sing at the same time
he was just 2 cool 4 school. the guitar is not an instrument he plays, but he is the instrument the guitar plays to get the music out.
Same as Keith Moon with drums (at least between 1967-70 as after that he go rapidly weaken). He is projecting some 'on spectrum' vibes into the instrument, ignoring most orders of the janre. Unused to think that immigrating Moon, even for a five minute drumming session , would fail due to inability to stand it phisically but some time down the road I got to learn it was because I was (and seems like none else) not wired like him.
If he were alive today, he might be texting in between as well.
Practice. I read somewhere he'd often fall asleep still holding his guitar.
while playing a right handed guitar left handed!!!!!!!
I try not to watch Jimi's live videos, because he kicks my ass as a guitarist. I have been playing much longer than him, he died so young. But I drag myself here, to admire and learn. Thanks Jimi for all these 40 + years of guitar lessons you have given me. Love ya man!!!!
And are you practicing 16 houres per day? I dont think so....
@@kubikmatejka That's right. there is a video here with interview of Billy Cox who was room mates with JH after they got out of the army, recalling how Jimi would walk around with a guitar all day even in a movie theater! That's dedication.
@@woodzeppelin3241 That's the Muse. The obsession that puts the greats into the grave faster than they should. Any musician I felt was ever touched by The Muses, it was Jimmy. There are others of course. Jimi is in a league all his own. I'd say he and The Doors were the last remnants of the soul of the '60s. I was a kid, but I do remember the times fondly. You can copy him, but there can only be one Jimi. He is a slim shady for sure.
I'm sure some have already seen this performance, but it is worth watching over and over. What a great performance he gave!
ua-cam.com/video/gYC0CzGSGSo/v-deo.html
@@michaeldefeo3030 I was very young in the 60s. I remember a hotwheels toy "Light-my Firebyrd" . Did not know who Hendrix was until years later after he died and i was in high school. Both the Doors and the Experience launched a million guitaists. Thanks for sharing the link. I saw that one already, but worth another listen to.
@@woodzeppelin3241 Oh without a doubt!
Imagine being on that much lsd and just busting out a solo like that
lmao this sounds and looks just like someone trying to play the guitar on lsd.
Shit go hard I’m off xans and lsd rn lol rip jimi
Thog it was more alcohol for him, I kinda class him as alcohol purely cos that was his cause of death
Seamus for president his cause of death was heroin overdose
Thog no he took too many sleeping pills and died in his sleep because he choked on his own vomit
How the hell does this sound so fresh and groundbreaking 50+ years later..?!
that guitar asked for a cigarette after jimmy was done with it
He was willing to take chances on stage. This performance is not about the cleanest, most perfect guitar playing, but it's sheer artistry on the fly. Amazing.
He always improvised in his live performances. He never really played it straight. Always trying new things.
Man, his playing here is the best sound and playing he ever created on stage. He played, I think, in the key of D. Very low. It gave his creativity a burst. His playing here is beyond any existing level. It is unique.This concert is a masterpiece. Are you deaf?
There are barely mistakes.
I like his improv here.
His guitar playing makes me wanna punch a hole through a wall.
I know what you mean. Hendrix could play real loose and sloppy sometimes in his live shows but the guy takes chanced all over the place. He doesn't care if he makes a "mistake". He knows he's cool.
2:11 Jimi could speak Guitar language
i think he’s saying “i’m going to far” if you speak those words over the melody he’s playing it lines up perfectly
"Me When I'm Bored"
@TuWE. - Working as a slave
He is responding to his guitar feeding back during that stop. That is what I see. Mouth movements do not correspond to the notes being played at all. Looks like he says "WTF is with the feedback" or WTF am I in the monitor for" Etc.
hes saying im F' ed up..Im F' ed Up
Peak guitar playing ability.. this is mt everest of guitar
Let's not forget, that's a hell of a band behind him too...
Hell yeah man. Only the best
I never think of that, actually. Most kickass musicians probably have super kickass musicians behind them playing drums, another guitar, bass, piano, etc
Mitch Mitchell is one of the best.
Just a three piece making that sound hell ya they were great.
Mitch and Billy total badasses.
He has such astonishing fluidity, and maintains the rhythm even when doing fancy solos, rather than just playing notes fast. He also pays so much attention to all of the notes, bending and sustaining with such nuance.
That too while being on multiple drugs
He truly was an outstanding guitarist
he has perfect pitch, thats why his attention to notes is superb. he also almost never not plays his guitar daily, mastering his instrument
Jimi didn't pay attention to anything you just said, analytically. Jimi just played and everything you just said, came out from him naturally.
@@imbees2 that's just false, Hendrix was a virtuoso no doubt, but he still had to learn how to play guitar, Machine Gun for exemple is full of nuances that he definally thought about.
I read once that Jimi was hardly ever seen without a guitar in his hands or at least very close nearby. He almost couldn't stop himself from playing and music just literally poured out of the man. Same thing for EVH. A girlfriend once told Eddie that she thought he liked his guitar more than her and Eddie agreed lol. And that's what makes those guys so special.
Great comment

In July 13/24
The little part at the end where he mimics the main riff is just amazing. Jimi was a genius. Rest in peace.
Its my favorite part. he blows us away for 30 seconds then cuts into the main riff like an extended "moan", almost as if to say, come back down to earth.
He was a very cool man. He served his country honorably and regardless of where he went, he always remained a very witty & down to Earth man
Maybe a hundred years from now you'll get it😮.
YES!!

There are playing techniques today Hendrix did not use but technique without composing talent and visual exotic is boring and even iritating .
Thats why Hendrix will be my number one till i die.
He is the most carismatic artist in history.

I'd call you a narcissist but you are Hendrix. 🤷♂️
Jimi! Is that really you reincarnated?
JIMI
And then you get the question. Who is or was the greatest guitarist of all time? No contest!
i was 14 when this came out. We were stunned. this was so out of left field it was amazing.
STILL IS! KISS the SKY!
@The Amalgamator You`re quite young to have such an excellent taste of music. Respect.
I was 14 years old when I saw Jimi Hendrix at a concert in a theater where everybody smoked weed.
It's the sky.
I saw Jimi at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto in 1969. We were all stoned every weekend. Those were the days.
i'm born too late
I love the camera man who filmed this because he kept it where you could always see jimi playing and singing.
Edward Gore 1:18
Good point cuz many did not
I also like the shots of noel, and mitch just wildin out on those drums
LBboarding b pretty sure that's Billy Cox on base.
Yeah this is great camera man, if only there was someone like this for cream as well
He wasn't so much "ahead of his time" as outside of it. Outside of all time.
wise words, that's exactly it
He defined 'the time'
He was like me sweat baby child jahseh 🖤 he's a outer space love god... That did enough acid to kill a sperm whale
In the mean time we have to listen to a pile of bbc shit
You will never know
Isn't this man just the absolute coolest person to have every lived. Everything about him about him just scream for attention and is absolutely awesome.
HE IS ONE OF A KIND HELL OF A GUITAR BUT HE AINT GOD 😅😅
Swagger! In a good way.
Even if you know nothing about music, you know this is great
Sandra MacMillan thank god
Sandra MacMillan the fact that Jimi Hendrix knows nothing about guitar theories and learned how to play it on his own is just fucking amazing.
@@jayburriswayne5403 A lot of blues n rock guitarist can't read music. They invented we need sheets to follow their lead.
Jimi was a self taught guitarist.
People will never understand why he played with a Stratocaster upside down.
In 1970 at age 17 my best friend and I hitch hiked from Dallas to a little town in Georgia called Byran to witness Jimi Hendrix the God of guitar. Spectacular to say the least!
Shit like that is so cool
Wow. That must have been something!
I was there, too. I'm still wondering about the fighter jet that buzzed the concert area..... 3:48
I was there. I lived in Georgia. 18 years old.Hendrix played Star bangle banner 4th of July night with fireworks!
He performed in a little nightclub in my home town of Ann Arbor. Pink Floyd did too. I was only about twelve years old though so I didn't go.
the thing i find with hendrix is, is that even in this one song he pioneered so many different guitar playing styles that would later be the standard, like at the end, just pure shredding, its unbelievable. And the craziest part is, is that this was in the 60's. Nuts
He always ends Purple Haze so elogantwith his fingers just flowing, he really draws it out at woodstock.
Plump Pikachu
Now Plump, this is gonna piss you off but I've always felt like Hendrix was just a show off. I never felt like he was playing for his audience, just for himself. I've known kids for 30 years that can slide up and down a guitar neck, but like Jim, they could play the same in the garage or if they were in front of 300,000. Bottom line, ole Jim never impressed me.
@@jerrymiller7708 impressed you enough to witness his greatness on yu tube at 1 in the morning to comment on him.aint got nothing else to do? I realize also it was an objective..and truthful observation.
@@jerrymiller7708 but Jimi was there not 30 but 50 years ago, do you not see the difference?
You have to admit that guitar was never the same after jimi. Im 100% that you can't. Find anything even close to jimis style before the 1960's. Jimi truly reinvented the guitar
I'm sure Leo Fender never envisioned that when he created the Stratocaster...
The way Hendrix abuses the tremolo in his own beautiful way was completely unheard of back then...
And yet even though it wasn't designed for such extreme divebombs it's amazing how Hendrix always managed to stay in tune...For the most part...
He was a genius who did the best he could with the kind of gear he had back then and pushed the limits of music and the guitar so far ahead...
Of course there were many other great guitar players back then...But no matter how great they were they were still guitar players...
Hendrix was something else...
How true, Jimi was his own Master and Played His Way!
Either you can play a Stratocaster guitar or you cain't! If you don't like the premier playing of Jimi Hendrix, that's on you. The rest of the world thinks his playing is absolute, premier and above the scale of most other guitarists.
Guess you guys aren't ready for that yet, but your kids are gonna love it.
Turns out their kids loved despacito more
I was born a few years after he died. We kids of my parent's generation loved it. :) (P.S. love your "Back to the Future" reference.
I listen to jimi because of my dad 💖🥰🤩
Hello I'm that kid
I can confirm that their kids loved it
“It’s not about living for ever it’s about creating something that last forever”
animlk3 that’s verra nice right there
Fact!
- Albert Einstein 😂😂😂
It's honestly too much for me to comprehend that a man like this, who could not read music and was self-taught, can play like that in just 13 years. I think it would take me that long just to learn this one song. No amount of fulsome praise can truly describe how much of a talented genius Jimi was.
Amen brother!!!
I have to agree with you there lol.
Practise .... and an expansive imagination ...
Yes, they certainly don't make them like that anymore.
And on a right-handed guitar!
Someone around in 2024?
Still rocking more then half a century later 🤘
🤘
🔥🔥
Mhm
I was in a Jimi Hendrix cover band in my teens in 2004. I will always be here.
Yepppp
That's why it's hard to imitate, it never touched the same. An organized disorder.
Dalia Lanzò yeah. That’s why it’s hard to play like him.
Expression of soul can NOT be imitated period!!!
you're damn right, buddy!
Don't even try,what a strange idea
He's impossible to imitate. A lot of talented musicians have been playin Hendrix songs, one or another came somewhat close but none ever sounded or even felt like him.
Good Lord, the things this man did with a guitar. Unreal. Always was amazed at how effortlessly he played.
He effected music for more than 40 years !!!!!! End of Story because he Did ….. Peace
We were 20 in '70, drove from Little Rock to The Atlanta International Pop Festival in my van. For us it was Friday afternoon, The Allman Bros. started things off. I was humbled by the entire festival being so beautiful. Number 1 groups following 1 right after another. What I enjoyed of Hendrix was late Sat. night. He had his multi colored cape and clothes blowing me away. This was the biggest festival I saw. If my details are off I'm disappointed yet not surprised? Peace lives on
So cool!
so cool
How pop music has declined
Kerry Masterson
Kerry do you remember midday on Saturday and Spirit was playing and they stopped them to try and get 400,000 folks to back up at least a half of step, we were right in front of the stage and getting crushed, they did.
Here is man that has mastered and understood the strings beyond dexterity
Whenever I watch other great guitarists perform live, I notice how they kind of tense up and really focus on what they're playing and try not to make mistakes. But whenever i watch Jimi, I just see him play guitar, and that's what makes him so great. It's like he doesn't care what happens during the performance as long as it sounds good. He doesn't focus to hard on playing, he just goes with the flow. And if there are any mistakes, he just blends them in with the song. Jimi is a true master of the guitar who died way to young.
The man was brilliant
Eric Clapton: I’m the best Guitarist
B.B. King: No I’m the best guitarist
Jimi Hendrix: Hold my Beer
Ryan O'Reilly Even Clapton was blown away by Hendrix and even walked off stage
Lmfao 💀💀💀

Best guitarrist of all time, no debate.
Stevie Ray Vaughan was way better dude :D
@@WRytmieBluesa you're not wrong
@@WRytmieBluesa incorrect :D
@Nat Turner he was better in technical skill but not in creativity.... Look up stevie rays live performance of vodoo child.... as a jimi fan It hurt to watch........ He completely out performed jimi in that song.....
You all are debating without mentioning Eddie
still trying to figure out what planet this guy came from.....
There is no delay between his brain and his fingers. He just thinks the music. Noone else ever played the guitar like that. Maybe, in the future.....
He IS the music.
Yes there is another chosen one ....
His name is David Gilmore
Srv
Couldn't have explained it any better than that. There has never been another guitarist to date that was this in tune with the chords. None. Period. He/She doesn't exist. (Can you hear Jimmy? I can.) 👏😎✈
No one*
They should have Jimi's picture in the dictionary - under 'Force of Nature'.
In 100 years, people will remember Chuck Berry the man who started rock and Jimi Hendrix who taught people how to use an electric guitar. I am 60 years old today white and from Sweden this man is a role model for hundreds of millions who like rock.
Good fairings from Boston my friend, it’s an experience worldwide, only 19 but it’s a vibe for all :)
No one asked
@@american_psycho1147 Well I did, what he said is kinda true

Thank you, Sir, fir not including Elvis, who....in Southern US minds, invented Rick & roll as they know it.
Go to his grave in Seattle. Way cool. Leave a flower.
Daniel have you been there ,just give good luck and I will leave a bouket of flowers to the greatest rock guitar player who ever live gracias.
That has to be one of the nastiest shreds I’ve ever heard. So effortless. 27 years old man, let that sink in. Simply the greatest...
Amazing how his drummer jams so perfectly with him during his solos.
@@Albrecht777 huh?
@@leglobonaume The original comment has been amended. David Baron (above) originally talked about how Billy Cobham was playing on this video. "Billy Cobham, I believe", he wrote. Hence my response above. You will see that his comment has since been edited, to remove all reference to Billy. [Note: I have also edited this comment, since I forgot that the original remark referred to Billy Cobham!]
@@Albrecht777 mitch is the man! am i right
@@psychedeli_ You are indeed! It's no accident that Mitch is Stewart Copeland's favourite drummmer, for instance.

This man's legacy will carry on till the end of time.
People 1000 years from now will say "what is this sorcery!" 🤘
Look at the size of Jimmy's hands....
One of his best recorded performances hands down, his playing was so solid here and the band as well. Thank you for posting this!
Have you heard "Freedom" from the same show? My favorite late Hendrix perfomance.
This song is VIRUS
*_dead crow falls from the sky_*
These god damn weebs
@@schelcidbiel I wish I could join you in your lament but they infected me too. Run
@@schelcidbiel weebs and JoJo fans don't go together
Yes
it's not just the incredible sounds that strikes me with this performance. Just watching Jimi's fingerwork is amazing. I don't know that anyone else has ever been so good at it, or as creative as to try some of the things he tried.
Jimi is the.best.ever.and.the thing about it he was humble.about.it a black man in a white man's world and he's king wearing an apron his guitar was his gun
EVH you dummy.
Paco de Lucia
Just literally the music pouring out of his fingertips like molten rivers. SO effortless. He is the guitar MUSE!
Valeu
EVERY note was a psychedelic journey of the mind. Matter of fact your mind couldn't comprehend what it was seeing and hearing. Trying to keep up with his playing was mental gymnastics left for those that were sober during his concerts. The rest of us just sat there in awe sucking up every second of his once in a lifetime playing / sound. RIP the Jimi Hendrix Experience members. You changed music forever and for the better!
au contraire... those of us who dropped a bit of good acid (like he gave out at 2nd annual N Cali folk rock festival).... "got it".. we didn't need to "keep up"... he was a direct pipeline to something beyond time and space
Well Said...🎶🎼🎵 👍👊
I saw him in person. unbelievable playing that you can't even explain.
There's no "ifs, ands or buts" about seeing Jimi Hendrix. Either you did or you didn't. I did. and his performance was the best musical performance I've ever seen. Period.
The first time I heard Jimi play I was about 10 years old. I got goosebumps. That was 1968. He still has that effect on me to this day.
I agree, Mitch Mitchell is one of my favourites
+Gary A Me too!
were u at a concert?
+amistry605 -- No, I was watching some summer concert show on TV. At 10 years old, there's no way my parents would let me go. ha! I remember exactly where, when, and what I was doing at the time.
He wasn’t a musician, he was an artist, and fender made his paint brush.
Happy little riffs
That was beautiful
Music is art. And he was a fucking genius artist.
Davinci on guitar
Technically Marshall made his paintbrush
Not really sure about the weirdness of saying Dave Grohl is the greatest drummer of all time unless you never heard Mitch Mitchell
Just imagine being there, tripping on Everthing, seeing a guy with his guitar upside down and being hit with that music. Damn
I was there approximately 20 feet from the stage and I didn't do any drugs. I saw naked people. I saw guys peeing feet away from me on the fence. I saw all kinds of things including a Hell's Angel. It was incredible holiday with singing from greats day and night. I saw my neighbor, Bob, and he drove us home to Atlanta tripping on acid (aka LSD) which he tried to get me to take as the tab was purple and purple was my favorite color but as I neared taking the tab out of someone's hand something told me not to do it. I was in this era and avoided drugs.
@@cindi409 Thats why drugs should be legal...
@@pcky6646 but I didn't do drugs and saw the repercussions of drugs from others. Some drugs are really bad and mess with people's minds and they're never the same as they were before the drugs. Syd Barrett of "Pink Floyd" did, apparently, too much acid (aka LSD) in his hey day. Look at the show taxi and Jim who tried mj and went from brilliant to barely functioning (I know that isn't a true story). Heroin has done so much damage to people and families and friends. Meth. has ruined people's teeth, burned their brains out, and they can do some pretty good damage on people and property. It's said that the Rolling Stones did heroin and I don't know if that's true or not but they're still around playing music which is great. Aerosmith's Steven Tyler had problems with drugs and is clean and healthy again. His mind seems sharp and he's so good as an entertainer. What say you?
@@cindi409 None of these artists would have been the same without drugs.
It is a matter of use.
I know that the use of narcotics is a controversial issue, but to ban drugs from Human History, you would have to ban Chemistry, and the human...
I think you are just separating the elements that corroborate your point of view, at the same time, drugs have increased our lives for decades...
If we left society under the control of people who are inclinated to think like you, we wouldn't have even met Hendrix, we would have thrown him in jail...
The solo at the end is seriously mind blowing. Such a shame this man had to leave us so early in his life, the amount of music he could've blessed us with was endless
I was there in 1970 and Hendrix played late on the 4th of July and gave one of the great performances of his career. This was the second time I saw him play and there are great musicians still today, so don't get bored or broken spirited. Still those were the greatest times for me and the hippies were wonderful. We could have shared a nation and a world of brothers and sisters in one free rainbow unity, dispensed with money and wars, and gotten on with green solar and wind power for each and everyone ...and we still can do it. Love to you all.
Not to put you down or anything, but wind based energy isn't all that efficient in practice, and actually kills a lot of birds who get swept up by these giant fans :(
But yes, go green, end hate, spread peace and love
We could use nanoturbines which wouldn't even get in birds' way, but you're right about the large ones. ) Peace )
That sounds wonderful, I bet the optimism and vibes were infectious
次元が違いすぎて何が凄いのかすらわからなたあ ただ一つわかるのは魂が震える
0:19 it's impossible to be more Rock and roll than that move
After that performance, the guitar made him a sandwich and ironed his shirts
Hell yeah!!!!
That's the comment of the week. Hilarious.
🤣🤣
you need to be paid for that kinda humor 😜
I believe it was pancakes
This is great! Where have they been hiding this gem?
+Shane Woodbury nobody was hiding it. this has been available for a pretty long time lol
+Shane Woodbury was in a vault for over 30 yrs until janie told them to pull it out
+Shane Woodbury It was released on laser disc in Japan and VHS in Europe a long time ago
+Alex Yamach Absolutely, a very long time ago indeed. I had it on VHS many, many years ago. Later on I got the DVD version when I first had a DVD player. as you say It is by no means a new release.
+jharekcarnelian There are additional songs not on the Alan Douglas VHS/Laser Disc release. I doubt you have seen Freedom, and Room Full Of Mirrors on your DVD? The additional footage was stored in a barn. That and it's been remixed by EddiE Kramer. Alan Douglas also added crowd noises where there weren't any in the first release along with editing footage and camera angles. I'm done now, "goodnight, and thank you very much"!
Its crazy how many people come back to this everyday... this song is masterpiece!
Please don't do this here, go somewhere else *shoo*
Get out of here

One of these shit comments again. Go away.
Legend
Possibly the coolest performance Jimi ever did. I couldn't believe my eyes & ears when I first saw him on tv in 1967. This ain''t 'just' music; it's magic on every level. Leaving the crowd flabbergasted, Hendrix flew back to Mars after the show, they say.....
Lucky you. I was not even born!!
ua-cam.com/video/jJ9Xk-VoGqo/v-deo.html
jimi got his own sound, but that dude on the drums is caught in the zone. I think he is better than any drummer ive seen,including baker, and zeppelins drummer..
Mitch Mitchell
+jason lowery Bonham was equal to Hendrix talent wise. He's "zeppelins drummer"
Cam Clark i agree, cream had a good drummer and mitch mitchell was no slouch. Bonham died too early and zep did not replace him. Zepplein lasted longer that hendrix by a year. Two of the greatest rock bands lasted no more than 3 or 4 years.
+jason lowery Best drummer ever? Keith Moon of "THE WHO"
Sorry Bonzo > Moon
Years ago when I would listen to led zeppelin,i would find that the music was depressing and fake. I have never felt that way with Jim I Hendrix .listening to Howard stern radio show,one morning,he said that he doesn’t know how he got caught up with it. The difference between Led Zeppelin and Hendrix is like night and .i have stopped listening to Led Zeppelin a long time ago, too depressing.
I can only imagine the advantage having incredibly long fingers has on your ability to play guitar. His little finger is longer than my middle finger.
Yeah, it's all about long fingers *cough cough*
+Viktor Ozerov no but it sure helps
Shoot First He was destined to play the guitar
Dat thumb tho
