I did not know that he did, he simply played it the best he could. Which is pretty awesome. Besides have you heard some of these people butcher it on t.v. before a sporting event? Naw Hendrix didn't dishonor the Star Spangled Banner, he took it to a new level.
He made the Star Spangled Banner into a psychedelic song. Hendrix was also a patriot, he would never disrespect our country. He played the song that way to honor the troops that were fighting in Vietnam. The sounds you hear are the bombs dropping, soldiers dying, screaming people, and even the sound of bullets. It is simply magical. - Havok
What a silly question. First of all it's art and that is in the ear of the beholder. Second, Jimi was a vet and served in the 101st Airborne, which is volunteer duty, which means he was no hippie idiot who didn't know what patriotism is about, he served and earned the right to play that song any way he wanted. Third, there's no disrespect to the song or the country in his arrangement. Finally, it's the greatest guitar player who ever lived paying tribute to his country, there's no controversy here and they should play it at government functions, in my opinion.
