Must See!!!!so beautiful!!

well see that is a matter of taste, but he is #1 b/c of his influence and his playing ability...Whether he sounded good or not is subjective.

I agree his music...well it sounds like its out of tune most of the time and no beat like Van Halens "Euroption"...great song... is way better than anything Hendrix wrote...Hendrix is only famouse because he got taught by some amazing guitarists in England. All this solos start off the same, end the same.

Yes it's kind of like a famous artist.... the scribbles and splashes on the canvas look like a child did it, but they are revered for their innovation, depth, blah..blah..blah ... Still looks like crap to me.

but see you are being so subjective. You like the Eruption solo...Wll no offense but that solo is quite simple.As a guitarist you should respect how amazing Hendrix is and why he should be 1 and maybe 2 on the list. (only to lose out to SRV)

There is aguy I know in New York like that.he puts some dots on the canvas and imean fucking dots tiny little dots, a pyramid or circle or square or some other shape on it nad paints an eye in that shape.I nevr got it, looks like shit, fmy 2 year old could recreate it, but he also makes a hell of a lot of money for his paintings, so I guess Im wrong. If Iam buying a painting though I want to see the canvas covered in paint rather then 10% of it painted and the rest fucking white.Ill never understand why he gets paid for it and I have to work.

ahahaha modern art...lol

My ass its simple!! if its so simple go get basic guitar learning and play it. I cant even begin the damn song or do the tapping, hurts to do it for so long like your finger will bleed , dont see his bleeding

lol its funny I play guitar too. About a year and a half now..When I look at the riff, it is just fast very short and quick notes...I am just saying remove hendrix, and what happens to these great guitarists? More respect needs to be given to the guy. Halen is a great but not the greatest, not nearly.I mean if it is about speed...Yngwie Malmsteen...you will not play faster than him

If i had to choose between a van halen concert or hendrix it will so be Van Halen

yeah but that is b.c of your preference of the different styles of music they play. See that is what I am saying, I mean I am no big fan of hendrix, but to get rid of the music they play and compare by ability and influence, Hendrix gets the gold there. I mean I see how hendrix can be debated as number one, but ask any of the guitarists and they will mention Hendrix up there as one of the best.

Yes, Hendrix is "up" there but im not putting him as the greatest guitarists of all time, the greatest guitars of all time are probaly from the 18 or 19th century I heard pieces from like stuff with the lute. Amazing, theres one piece called welsh dance, must listen to it if anyone know where i can get it please pm me!

In reply to: As a guitarist you should respect how amazing Hendrix is and why he should be 1 and maybe 2 on the list. (only to lose out to SRV) I am a guitarist, and while I respect Hendrix for his contribution to rock music, I still don't think he should be in the top 10. My thoughts are not based on influence or any crap like that, but raw talent and musicianship.I am becoming more and more a fan of Stevie Ray and Duane Allman.Of course, when the discussion devolves into yes he is, no he ain't, yes he is, not he ain't...it's rather pointless.

If you go by raw talent... Jimmy Page is definatly top one! so is angus and van halen there are magnificant musicians out there some who are still unrecgognized, like me! :smirk:

Well that just sounds really stupid...not even putting hendrix in top 10? You disgrace guitarists...Even in my music class

Welcome to my world, where people are encouraged to think outside of the box and investigate stuff for themselves and make their own decisions instead of repeating like mockingbirds everything they're told they are supposed to believe about music and art and such and where I am free to say without reserve or shame that I think Radiohead is the most overrated band in the history of rock music.People in your guitar class? They're in a guitar class. How qualified can they be?

I would put him in top 10 but not top 5, Can you actually name me 3 songs that are great?

All Along the Watch Tower, Voodoo Chile, and Crosstown Traffic

In reply to:Stevie Ray Vaugh is the greatest guitarist to ever have lived so far. Gotta agree with you on that one.. if only more people could see what he could do.. they would be in awe.

Those are okay songs but they are not classics that people know off by heart. Everyone knows Stairway To Heaven, best damn solo to be ever composed; Guitarists mess up on stage alot so does most of the band but if you count who messed up least it would be Steve Vai Jimmy Page and Van Halen who barely make mistakes on stage they do sometimes but not as often!

In my opinionn as a guitarist and musician, hendrix sucked monkey balls. He just made backward sounds, like shit. Anyone can burn a guitar. Zakk Wilde blows hendrix out anyday of the week. Zakk makes hendrix look like a retard. Any how Eddie plays like he and the guitar are one. I love Matthias Jabs from the Scorpions, listnen to Blackout, Bad Boys Running Wild, Rock You Like A Hurricane. Come to think of it, every guitar player sounds better than jimmi. In fact, thats how you sound when you first star playing. I guess you would have had to been on acid like him in order to find any meaning in his backwards music.
