he's back

[sk8rat]

after a 3 year hiatus. one of the best youtube guitarists. no fancy editing, just playing.

 

[Dilemma]

Return of the headless guitarist.

 

[NRBQ]

Sounds good, every time I see a video like this to me it just reinforces how great Hendrix was to have done this a full half a century ago. It's makes his sound and vision all the more amazing, the headless guitarist has the recreation down pat, Hendrix did it all first and with a road map that was completely in his head.

Am I the only one who doesn’t care for the wah? I’m talking in general terms here not just this video.

I love the wah wah pedel, have one although I haven't broken it out for some time.

I always equate one with that compressed 70’s sound. Cant shake it.

 

[Malikon]

rather clinical sounding. Sounds very practiced, where's the swagger? I've never heard Hendrix sound so White. It needs drag and swing, push and pull,... looseness, not perfect metronome timing.


no feel; too many notes

Laugh, but that’s EXACTLY what bugs me about
Eric Johnson. Bash around a little for cryin out loud.

I can't stand the sound of it. Doesn't matter who it is playing.

it's not articulated but I think that's the thing that bugs people about JB too. Some players are fantastic players but they're a little stiff.

"bash around a little" is a really good way to put it. Almost all my favorite players are loose and just a little bit sloppy. From Yngwie to Satriani to Hammett and Mustaine,... Van Halen,.. there's just a little bit of looseness and swagger to it. It doesn't sound like a machine is playing.

then you get guys like Petrucci or Michael Batio who play perfectly, .. but it's a little stiff sounding.

"bash around a little" usually provided courtesy of Jack Daniels and possibly a bit of South American bam bam.

'ere Mal.... where's the hotty gone?

 

[Malikon]

She is..

Most famous for being Lady Snowblood and also Female Prisoner Scorpion

she also was a popular singer in the 70's..

that song was used in Kill Bill

..Kill Bill is sort of a rip-off of Lady Snowblood. Especially the Lucy Liu character in particular.

 

[Tone deaf]

I think the video does a great job of highlighting how important the bass line is to the greatness of this tune.

Super Hits of The Seventies!

 

[gadafi]

Ahhhh.... that's better...

 

[Jymbopalyse]

Or you could just listen to Hendrix

I'm with you, let a few mistakes into that final recording, VH did that, let some of the warts show, it gives the music that human element. Wasabi, the perfection of imperfection or whatever the F it is.
