My wife and I were privileged to see The Jimi Hendrix Experience at The Mojo Club, Sheffield in 1966. Wow - what a night!
That's amazing!
Wow,how blessed are you both to have been a wonderful part of magical History!
Thanks for sharing!❤️❤️❤️.
Can you do a video of your experience watching Jimi Hendrix . We only get rock star versions. What was it like in real life . U must remember everything.
I'm from Sheffield I would have loved to have been born back then to have witnessed it, you're so lucky!
@@timlewis6429 Sorry about the delay in replying. I've only just seen your comment. The Mojo Club was a small venue, a former church hall. The only seating was around the sides of the room. Most people stood/danced. The stage was only a couple of feet high. The dressing room was at the back of the room so Jimi and the boys walked through the crowd to reach the stage. People gasped in surprise when they saw Jimi. The show was exactly as you'd expect from the band including teeth playing, etc. We stood just a couple of feet away from the stage.
53 years since Jimi's death, and there still has been no guitar player to even come close to his genius. I'm afraid we will never see one like him again.
What I like about Jimi the most is how humble he was. A lot of people don't realize how utterly shy Hendrix was because of his stage antics. I only wish that artists today with a quarter of his talent dropped the ego.
People that hung with him also said he was the single funniest person they have ever met?!
A lot of today's "artists", as well as many in days gone by, just not as many, wouldn't be anything without the ego and the "personality"(lol). If they were asked just to jam away on a guitar like this, they would very quickly show themselves to be nothing special. Not that it would change many people's minds anyway, as many people seem to like whatever they are told (see the pop charts).
@@paulgordon6949 thank goodness we still have Jimi Hendrix from his body of work he left behind.
Yeah...drop the ego...and find some talent!!!
Why was he so prasied . He was not as good as any other groups that were around at the time. He was just louder than the other. And his guitar playing was just making a shredding sound that Hurt your ears!!! Why wasn't Jimie Hendrix or Jim Morrison or Janis Joplin or brain Jones ever Run over told that they were only junkies?? Because they were on heroin the same as Stevie wright was. But they died from it. At least Stevie wright tried to get help for his drug addiction. But the doctor's that he went to for help just made him even worse. Maybe he would have been better off if he had died along with the others. He would have been a music God. In stead of a junkie and a alcoholic has been. That lost his talent because of it. So sad. He was a great performer and song writer and legend. Taught the rest of the front men how to entertain the people.
pure playing with emotion...nobody did it better...the world was a better place with Jimi in it... R.I.P. Jimi Hendrix
Jimi Hendrix is my No. 1 favorite musician of all time. Hearing him changed my life.
…closely followed by David Bowie
Same here brother. Jimi still Chief!
I had the chance to see right in front of me, in a exposition, his colorful coat and the black hat, used in the first video. Also the Fender used in Woodstock.... what a moment !
He had 2 white strats, most of the time he used the other one which was identical. The Woodstock strat was kept in electric lady studios for safe keeping & that it why it is still in excellent condition. The strat u saw him playing would have been the other strat, known as the Notch strat as it had distinctive marks/chips on it.
@@whasudr in the strat I had the chance to see, is missing one screw in the white plate, and you can see the same condition in the strat of woodstock movie. Very interesting.
@@Glauco1963 cool it could well have been the Woodstock strat then. I'm working on trying to id which of the white strats he played at which concerts. Which concert did u go to ?
As the astute Bill Hicks expressed, "Hendrix was an alien, ok? His ship landed, they said, ‘Jimi, show ‘em how it’s done and we’ll pick you up in 28 years.’"
Bill Woo hey...we should get together...you look great! 😂
@@lulugurl6547 I'm not worthy. I'm not worthy.
Bill Woo no worries!
Caution to the wind is a good name for Jimmy Hendricks. Love that.
Fil, a great video here, and your guitar, instuctional, I was Blessed to see the man 2 times when i was a young Pup, the right ciy and the right place at the time, R.I.P. To James Marshall Hendrix, Cousin Figel
Saw him in 69 in Toronto hours after he got busted at the airport for smuggling drugs earlier in the day. He posted bond and was driven straight to Maple Leaf Gardens for the concert. I remember he told the crowd something like forget about what happened, let’s have a good night and he opened with Fire. The rest is a blur, as was a lot of the 60’s & 70’s. 😇
you really get a feel for what a sweetheart of a person he was. he was adorable. he was old when i was a kid, but now i see a young man. 🥰
man....you can feel the soul coming out of the strings
He was so proficient in his skill, that it really allowed him a lot of freedom to do what he wanted to with the guitar. That's what I think that I like about him so much. He probably never played anything the same way twice, and it never got boring. Always very exciting to listen to
Yay! Not blocked yet! Fingers crossed. I never knew why Jimi Hendrix is considered one of the best guitarists and now I'm beginning to see why... Thanks😃
When i was a kid i mimic Jimi.
He's amazing. Improvisation Delta blues.
I curled my strings at the end of the guitar just like Jimi ... Still do..
Thanks professor
I first saw this footage about 15-20 years ago (I'm 50). I like Hendrix, and appreciate his contributions to music history, but I'm not a "Hendrix fanatic" per se. This really blew me away with it's stripped-down simplicity and, for my money, some of the best of his playing ever caught on film. Thanks for this, Fil. Stay safe everyone. Cheers from Florida.
Fil...being just a music lover who doesn't play the guitar, I found this very entertaining and enjoyable. I'm amazed at all of you who do play. Thank you!
Jimi Hendrix is Unmatched.
Legendary Guitarist.
I wept when Jimi died. R.I.P. Jimi Hendrix.
Classic and thank you for finding this gem!
Hendrix composed on acoustic. Just so happens that he recorded an acoustic demo of a whole album. These tapes are titled 'Black Gold'. The estate has had these tapes for many years, have promised to release them, and yet here we are in 2021, still waiting.
The last few releases of Hendrix studio recordings have done nothing for his legacy except make it harder for the uninitiated to find his prime material. The estate needs to face the fact that best of what was not released in his lifetime has long been available and hard core fans already have it (ironically with the exception of Black Gold). Anything else that remains should be released as archival material, big multi disc sets that collectors and completists will purchase. Not straining credulity by piecing together run throughs, outtakes and alternate versions that have better takes already released and claiming it as a lost studio album just as Jimi would have intended it.
If they are afraid they won't make much money off Black Gold then save the big promotion campaign and lush packaging and just put it out there, charge a bit extra if they feel that they must. There are many long time Hendrix fans who have spent hundreds or possibly thousands of dollars on his music who would gladly reach into their pockets one more time to purchase Black Gold. This is a whole album of Hendrix on acoustic, rare enough in itself, but more than that it is his first recorded demo of a complete album (maybe a concept album) that the world never got to hear in a final form. I live in hope that I will get to hear it, one day, preferably sooner rather than later.
By the way the raven haired beauty in the Hound Dog clip is Kathy Etchingham, Jimi's girlfriend at the time. Not groupie, not hanger on. She was incedibly important to Jimi when he came to London as an unknown and then broke through and rapidly achieved stardom. She gave him a lot of support and it is really cool that she appears in this clip, she is a big part of the Jimi Hendrix story. Her middle name is Mary. After she and Jimi had an argument she stormed out and when she returned Jimi had written the Wind Cries Mary for her. So to call her an inspiration or even muse for Jimi is justified.
You are correct about Kathy...but Hendrix was a total player...she gave their relationship as much flexibility as she could mentally put up with, but Hendrix was not really worth her time, in the long run...He clearly was a genius guitarist--but not worth much as a relationship partner.
I remember seeing the film Experience at the Paris Pullman cinema in Drayton Gardens from which the 12 string stuff and probably Hound Dog too came (I can't recall for sure) in 1968 and was so excited as a 15 year old to see the Experience twice at the Albert Hall in February 1969 and Jimi again at the Isle Of Wight in 1970. The thing that make people say he's 'messy' or whatever was all about the note by note search and the thing that made him and keeps him up there with the best is that every single note mattered and when he was on there was literally nobody to touch him. I'm enjoying listening to your analysis. Thanks
It was Hendrix who also got me to buy and start learning guitar. He changed the landscape for rock guitar playing. He passed way too young. RIP Jimi 🎸🤘👍
Jimi plugged into some mad hybrid of Robert Johnson and Chuck Berry in that second part--exhilarating start to that. As always, Fil, you deliver the goods with your breakdowns. Cheers, mate! chordially, MU.
I had a poster of Jimi Hendrix on my bedroom wall since I was about 9 years old. He was from outer space.
We were sure of it. The way he dressed, the way he played. He was definitely not from around here.
I would describe him as a percussive instrumentalist. He definitely changed the sonic landscape of the electric guitar.
He did Bob Dylan's song
"All Along the Watchtower."
Bob heard it and said
"I'll never play It sgain."
In a way he was bowing his head with respect. I dig them both.
Robin Trower could carve the air like that. After Jimi's passing Robin bought Hendrix's equipment.
Jimi Hendrix spawned a new breed of guitar player. Not until Eddie Van Halen would there be another person who made such a big influence on the way the guitar was played.
Thank you Mr Hendrix..
As Bill Hicks expressed, "Hendrix was an alien, ok? His ship landed, they said, ‘Jimi, show ‘em how it’s done and we’ll pick you up in 28 years.’ And you know what Jimi said? ‘All riiight.’ "
Yea, me and all my friends who played guitar when we were kids loved Jimi, no matter what other players we didn't fully agree on. I do think Steve Vai was closer to doing for guitar what Jimi did for it though. As a player he threw the doors wide open for me personally. I think Eddie was more like Clapton, and Eddie would probably agree since he cited Clapton as his biggest influence. But that's what my ears hear, nothing wrong either way ofc.
@@aylbdrmadison1051 Not dissing Vai , but imo there is no comparison. Who hasn't heard of Jimi ? My pre teen grandsons like Hendrix , but I doubt if they would know Steve Vai. Jimi was not just an influential guitarist to other guitarists , he was a bonafide entertainer & pop star. There's a lot of difference.
But Dylan has gone on to perform the song many many times since then . He uses Jimi's arrangement ,as he prefers it to his own.
@@aylbdrmadison1051 Steve Vai started Life as a Jimi Hendrix impersonator. I respect Steve Vai's as a musician. But if you were to interview a hundred people walking down the street and ask them to name one of his songs you'd be lucky to get anybody who knows who he is. Can you name a Steve Vai song-uh,,, surfing with an alien?
Steve just hasn't really hit the charts ever. Worked for Zappa. Zappa never really hit the charts either. But we all know who he is.
I first heard Foxy Lady on the radio in the sixties. I went out and bought the album, "Are You Experienced" and listen in disbelieve that this mesmerizing sound was made by a human being. There are so many wonderful guitar players right accross the music spectrum and they play great too yet, during the short time he was with us Jimi Hendrix wove magic spells with every note he played and every song he sang. But it was really Jimi's relationship with the guitar that seemed to create a symbiosis- guitar and player, that seemed as though the instrument itself became a living thing of rare musical beauty. A fantastic joy, Fil to see the acoustic Hound Dog clip - imagine being there at that party?
The Man, The Myth, The Legend. Wow my favorite acoustic songs of Mr. Jimi. His train came for him much to early, wish he could of stuck around would of love to see him play live.
Amazing talent and soul. Such a loss for us all to lose him so young. Can you imagine the breadth and width of his discography and impact had Jimi had an Eric Clapton or BB King length career?!
Thanks for your research and musical education, Fil. Always enjoy what you have to say. Cheers.
Jimi absolutely inspired me to pick up the guitar in the 70's as a kid and what always got me about Jimi was his pure expression and joy of playing his way without any reservations. Jimi was and still is inspiration personified. Another brilliant analysis, Phil. You give insight and analysis that I ways learn from. Thank you!
His singing is tuned in to what he is playing. He seems to be following his own lead as he sings with, or through his guitar.
He did that a lot. It's in 'Hear my train a coming', 'Voodoo Chile' among others.
Bluesmen in thee past did the same thing
Can’t believe this is the first time you’ve analyzed this legendary video. Hell yeah!
Best ever Fil !!! Just seeing him, makes my heart melt, so glad you mentioned that as a kid, you were inspired by him. You broke down for me how he got his signature. You explained why more Jimi is not seen -because of copyright. Thanks for saying -he showed humility by stopping the film to start again....like anything he ever did was not a thunderbolt. Miss him forever and all time. Thank you Fil. You do Jimi justice. Everybody...forward this vid with a Share arrow above. Fil is a fantastic teacher, email your young
people -who will be inspired by Fil , who was inspired by Jimi ! Fil's subscribers should be a million after this...spread the word.
Thanks for the kind words!
Even his attire screams psychedelia! That shirt is so cool.....Yes of course. he is the guitar God we all think and know he is.
I love his hat.
He had long fingers that enabled him to reach around with his thumb with ease. But overall, he played with pure soul.
"Can I do it one more time?!" - Now that reminded me of the the rare acoustic footage of another LEGEND, Mr. Randy Rhoads himself....
God what a treat it would have been to see him as an elderly statesman of the craft.
Thanks Fil,Jimi is my favorite,not only do we share a birthday ,I had head injury at 15 just before my 16thbirthday wich is strange because we are born 16years apart. Lots of other things we have in common I won't go into I really wanted you to know it means a lot to me you analysis of his playing,peace .
just want to fill in a little of the story of my head injury,I went to see George Harrison in concert in Vancouver Canada 1973 or 74 (getting a little foggy with as i am 61 now)the guy i went with looked a lot like Jimi and we were at a girlfriends house the night before the concert and i was given some LSD by Jeff who had scored it from some guy in the club we were in,well things were getting wierd and i freaked out and left the house running and wound up 1 month comatose ,when i woke it was already into december ,,George Harrison concert was in October and i had amnesia of how i got in the hospital or what had happened to me.,latter in years i found out Jimi and i share a birthday. Just before going to see Harrison i heard my first taste taste Jimi Hendrix Smash hits and i loved it shortly after coming back home i learned to play guitar but it was difficult because for years i had parallisis in my right side and i have parallisis in my eye but persavered and still play not as good as Jimi but do a few of his songs and love to hear you Fil analize his playing ,,you are wonderfull and very talented so again i love jimi and thanks for the video!!!
Jimi’s rhythm guitar was often overlooked. Everyone was so awestruck with his lead guitar ability, that they often didn’t even look at his mastery with other instruments...Jimi Hendrix played brilliant bass guitar too. If you listen to the album Electric Ladyland, you will hear his style of bass playing on over half the album. See if anyone can tell the difference between Noels bass playing, and Jimi’s on the album. 1983... (A Merman I Should Turn to Be) is an excellent example of Jimi’s bass playing!
I can tell the difference between Noel and jimi on bass. Jimi was a natural. Noel was a frustrated guitarist.
You can hear a super cool bass lick on all along the watchtower @ 2:49. Pilky27 plays it on guitar in his cover but i'm sure its on the bass
Jack Cassidy played bass on Electric lady land
Absolutely
@@bradleyamor8854 I know he played in the studio with Hendrix, but I didn't think that he played bass on the entire album.
Most people don't realize that his acoustic 12 string Hear my train a coming is an improv. That's why when he messed it up at the beginning, it sounded so different than when he played it the second time. Completely different song.
And he says, "I was scared to death!!"
Excellent analysis Phil ! As ever very knowledgeable on your subject ,articulate and added bonus of accomplished guitar explanation.
oboy! What a cool analysis! I love the symmetry of his influence on you and how you now have this opportunity to spread the wealth. Thanks!
In this clip, you can see how true Jimi stayed to the "Old Negro Blues" sound of the 1920s forward. It is so natural for him. Jimi on an acoustic, is just so rare, and very cool. Looking at Jimi's clothing, you can see a lot of what Stevie Ray Vaughn took from his childhood idol. The loud jackets, and hats etc. Jimi was the first, and will always be the Best in my opinion. Miss you Jimi!
I can't play like that, but I want the clothes!!
SRV just copied him...never saw what the fuss was about Vaughan's playing...plus thx for not going stupid pc and actually saying 'negro blues'...so many would stop short today
@@GaZonk100 Same,I just don't feel anything from SRV. Although I'd take him over the abomination malmsteen rolled out and called "blues"
@@user-tm9ho3bm4v lol...yes!
It's good that you pointed out that Jimi was an authentic black blues player, because an unenlightened Albert King believed that Jimi Hendrix could not play the blues.
#JealousHater
Jimi was a sublime cocktail of elements all coming together to make an utterly unique player, arriving at precisely the right moment in history. His appearence and character all channelled through his incredible guitar playing to inspire us for generations to come. I have recognized his genius instinctively for 50 years and now listening to your professional analysis here, helps me understand why. It's not just technical skill, it's that raw free flowing creative expression of all that you are, that only the truly gifted can accomplish.
And the heroin that he was on. To make him more creative.... He was not as good as everyone makes him out to be. 😢😢😢😢😮😮😮😮
Facinating to watch you break down & demonstrate Jimi's guitar playing. Even though he was on this Earth for a short time, he and his music were a true gift. Thanks FIL, I did learn more about his skills through your video here.🎸☮️
Great Video of acoustic Jimi Hendrix! I enjoy acoustic strumming and picking and to see the second video again reminds all of us of his mastery and vulnerability. You demonstrating his cord change ups brought much joy. Your guitar lessons are Masterclass, as I believe I have said in another post. Thank you.
i love the way you make sense of everything i love,,,great job as always Fil!
Thanks!
Hound Dog reminds me of Robert Johnson's approach of singing, and playing rhythm and lead all at the same time!
You're the best at breaking down and explaining music. Thanks Fil! Viewer from across the pond.
Another great one Fil, well done Sir, nice seeing Jimi having a good time playing, Jeff in LA USA
The man had more soul than a dozen of the coolest cats in one room together.
How did I miss this one?!? Rare to see indeed. Great video Fil.
Jimi is always been my prefer guitarist for ever! I started to play the guitar thank to Jimi Hendrix, and after 25 years i love him like first time. Thank you for the shared! Music bless you☮️🙏🏻
In 1972 my girlfriend and I went to the Biograph theater in Washington DC. To see the new Hendrix movie Rainbow Bridge. I was floored by the music and his attitude. And I had to hit three record stores on the way home before I found the album in stock. They had six of them and I got three. I usually bought two of the same albums one for on the living room shelf for when I had company. And one locked away in a closet kept pristine to listen to with headphones on a Sansui G-33000. But I had to get one for my brother. I put it on the same level of musicianship as Electric Ladyland.
Wings of Pegasus man I think that your playing is fantastic, and you explain everything so well, wow, I really appreciate it!
Thanks!
Thank you sir I was unaware of this video you've made my day thank you. And as always your analysis is in enlightening.
Just saw at 8:59pm NY time, good evening its Raini, stay healthy, Fil; brilliant man Mr. Hendrix always. As well, brilliant analysis and demonstration Fil, good seeing you and I am fine just busy, but your live streams I gave a thumbs up always. So, cheers and outstanding this analysis and your live stream Saturday Aug. 22nd 2020.👍🧸🎻
Good night Fil, and have a great week.😎🎸🎵🎼
What ever jimmy played he made it sound good.love his work.R.I.P JIMMY.
Fantastic!!
Great analysis, Fil!!
Thanks 🖤🤘🏽
Hey, HANDSOME! I came across this, and said OMG, another JIMI HENDRIX , analyseation!! So glad you weren't blocked... Those two videos are among my favorites!! I had privilege to be @ a couple of Jimis jam sessions among friends, he was a vision to watch, MESMERISING, hands down the best guitarist of all time so talented!! I miss him very MUCH, he would have been 78 years old now, and still setting the music world on fire, I'm sure!! Thanks for these videos, and as per usual, you are still spot on...... By the way, i love your hair, and fumanchu, lookin' GOOD!!
Great breakdown. Bravo! Rare, indeed, to see a Hendrix acoustic performance. Thanks!
First off Hendrix invented a lot of improves like partial Barre chords with the thumb over the top down on the neck and play licks to chords without moving much. Chet Adkins , Jerry Reed, Roy Clark, Waylon Jennings, Haggard and Nelson and a few others were so underated guitarists that played when they'd sing. Hank Jr is another. Don't know where I'm going with this other than pay attention to detail you can learn a lot.
Well, I love Jimi and am heavily influenced by him. But JImi didn't invent either of those things. Blues players (and others) had been using their thumb for barre chords before Jimi was born and guitarists have been playing chords and melodies mixed together since the instrument was invented 100's of years ago. But Jimi did massively change how electric guitar was played and he hugely influenced probably millions of guitarists, myself included.
Hank Jr is criminally underrated
That was awesome Fil! and nice to see your guitar back in your lap!
Although I was already familiar with these two clips, I never had such an appreciation for what was going on here “under the hood” until your presentation. And your demo on guitar is very helpful too. What a truly great resource, this program you put together. You cover the whole range, from vocal analysis to, of course, guitar. I always learn something new here. THANKS!
No problem!
I like how he sometimes picks the melody of what he’s singing.
It seems to be one of the signatures of Jimi’s playing.
You add so much value and music appreciation for me. I love your videos. I do not play any instruments so you
help me to understand some of the complexities. Thank you.
Thanks!
You are at your best here Fil. Thanks
A couple things.Hes in a tv studio.The guitar was borrowed and restrung for him but the nut wasnt turned around so you get all that ringing.Check out that nasty wound on the web between his thumb and fore finger on his left hand caused by trashing his room in Sweden.Lastly anyone notice the pick disappearing near the beginning?
Nope....that was not a wound--or at least, was not the wound he suffered when he trashed that hotel room in Sweden, 4 Jan 1968...He had a couple of cuts on his RIGHT hand only...there are photos existing of him playing a concert much later that day....you can see his right hand has a large bandage on it, but Jimi soldiered through the concert anyway.
thanks for digging all that up Fil i saw a tiny part of that in a mueseum somewhere years ago and honestly it was playing out a crappy television speaker luckily tonite i was prepared watching this video with my studio head phones plugged in and turned up your version and amp set up reminds me of more of a Zepplin acoustic style
Inspired idea to put both these acoustic plays together!!!! And I was heartened to hear Jimi is the guitarist that inspired you to play - he's also my favourite musician, since I was 16!!! Peace up
Thank you, Wings, great video!!!
I have so much more respect for Jimi Hendrix and his music since I’ve gotten older. In fact since I’ve been watching your analysis my mind has opened up to more genres.
Fil you are really filling in music history and giving us great perspective on the work behind the art...your videos are excellent 👏👏👏👍🏻🥂
Thanks!
Hello Fil, Still with you, been working some long days, as many as 12 hours so time is at a premium. I may have mentioned I have been to Jimi's grave as I lived next to the cemetery he was in, the Evergreen Memorial Cemetery located in Renton, Washington, state, near Seattle. Jimi's dad Al lived in Renton. He was the real deal, there will never be another like him. Glad your doing good. All the best from Oregon, C.
Great breakdown Fil, super, thanks!
Jimi was almost beyond cool. He channelled the entire history of the blues and mixed in the reds, greens and purples from outer space for good measure. There was something not of this world about him. He was great fun too, so much laughter.
Well done for adding the hound dog video. It's a great example of how brilliant, humble and funny he was.
It also allows him to play those runs on the thicker bass strings while letting the GBE high strings ring out
Hendrix rhythm chops on hound dog were unfuckingbrlievably good
His sense of rhythm and delivery is so good
What a great scene - sitting there with his harem passing the J
His adlibs “yeah” when the percussions kick in with a creative steady but syncopated beat
when i saw this on the movie, ‘Jimi’ , i found a vinyl-record album store in NYC, and they sent it right to me...i had to have access to that beautiful rendition of that song. i love watching them play, even as a listener/dancer. it’s been said so very many times...but what if he had merely been allowed to play/learn/play…and had it been up to us, collectively, to record him? thank you, Fil!
💔
Nice video, enjoyed this analysis, thank you 👍👍👍
Brilliant video as always mate! I hope one day you will do a video on SRV Unplugged session where he also play a 12-string. Rock!!
Fil, thanks for posting..the 12 string is amazing....sooooo many nuances...beautiful. if you have not seen it look for the live performance of Son House doing "death letter blues"...stay safe and thanks.
Rock Maestro Fil...that was a fabulous analysis.of my favorite Jimmy Hendrix video...and the quality was amazing...and his whole aura was really beautiful...his clothes, the way he played..just makes me sad that's such a beautiful man died so young....I never saw that hound dog video...what rythm and riff...that's my kind of croud! Well it used to be..lol
You give great analysis of these musicians, I really like your videos.
Thanks!
Please, do more Jimi! I learn so much...
Thanks for a very interesting analysis of Jimi Hendrix helped with two great colour videos showing what a great and proficient musician he was.
Suggestion for a future analysis: P.J. Proby
Best wishes, Rod
Hear my train a comin' is from the film Jimi Hendrix. The theater used to show this with Led Zepplin's the song remains the same. Ahh good times!😎✌❤
Yea, saw that same exact billing in Berkeley as a kid, and it's the first place I ever saw this Jimi clip too. The first one of those _theater concerts_ I saw though was Song Remains The Same and Pink Floyd, Live at Pompeii. I'll never forget that day.
I spend a lot of time watching music videos. Lots and lots of music and guitar videos. In all that time I hadn't come across these videos of Jimi playing acoustic guitar. Thank you for sharing those. You can't help notice that Hendrix has hands like oven mitts and a guitar looks like a ukulele when he's holding it. Kind of makes me think of the cover art on the Frank Zappa album "Man from Utopia". Along those lines, I watch a lot of David Gilmour in the mix and noticed the contrast between the shape of his hands when he was young and those of his more recent videos. His fingers are about three times as wide as they used to be. I'm sure he could play a guitar strung with piano wire and sound just like he always does! Thanks to those artist for sharing their talent, and again, thank you for guiding us through these classic moments!
Awesome analysis as always. Thanks
for this...I love Jimi on an acoustic the most of all. Also love his voice on Hear My Train..his voice was very underrated..as was SRV's voice
Great job phill ,, rare footage not many would have seen ,, what a tragic loss to the world ,, RIP Mr Hendrix ,,, thanks for this mate 👍😎🇦🇺Robby Aus.
Great work Fil, So that's how he got that great 2nd fret bend, He was truly a great guitarist/ singer /performer /artist and a nice guy. Your the best music analyst (and a great performer to) cheers !!!
Rock Fil, always a great lesson. I have to shout for Jimi!!! Thanks Fil
Long, long time Jimi fan here; he's my favorite musician of all time. I often tell people that most have no idea how well he played acoustic and bass guitar. I remember a well known musician, can't remember his name, who saw Jimi play a lot in the village before his British fame. He said it was amazing to see him go from acoustic to electric and still have such control on both. Remember, it's been said that Jimi wanted to do an acoustic set at Woodstock but there were those who were against it. It's amazing how much youtube and the internet have increased my research on Jimi.. Thank you internet and thank you Wings of Pegasus.
Janie Hendrix, an alpha user of the YT copyright system is strangling Jimi's legacy.
I'm glad you mentioned the current system and was shocked that this video is still up.
You're the best, thank you the video I learned so much about fusing rhythm and lead.
His ability to palm the pick and bring it back to his fingers is incredible.
Hendrix was an incredibly intelligent, humble and gifted human being. So appreciate that his music will reign until the end of time.....🎶🎶🎸💜❤️💜
Phil for PM ! Another winner. The way his voice so often blended so identically with guitar notes was stunning. For a completely different image of Jim have a google search for images of him backing Wilson Pickett .....JH wearing a tux and sporting slicked back hair....can you imagine what that must have sounded like ? Wilson on vocals with Jimi on guitar !
This man is beyond brilliant. RIP JH.❤️❤️❤️
Your best breakdown yet professor Fil. Could be due to this is the best video of the best guitarist. I have know idea how many times I have watched-listened to these videos? I really enjoyed Your breakdown. For Your fans there are some great movies that will really let you get to know who Jimmi was.
