Jimi Hendrix

He's under 5'6" but always wears platforms.

According to what i read/heard, Hendrix played Noel Redding,s Fender Precision bass guitar on "All Along The Watchtower. Apparently, this occurred because Redding had grew tired of Hendrix,s perfectionism in the recording studio, & that Hendrix would frequently have a group of friends/hangers-on in the recording studio with him when he recorded, which resulted in little or no work being done. Therefore, Noel Redding allegedly walked out of the studio & went drinking, while Jimi Hendrix recorded "ALL Along The Watchtower".

jimi's music has been called "space blues". In other words, so different they had to make a new category for it.

Jimi Hendrix's lyrics are commonly misperceived but the true meaning, what he was really asking was, have you experienced an LSD trip yet. have you "broken through".

to back me up he says "not neccessarily stoned, but beautiful..."

also see Jim Morrison, he can be quoted as using the term (not word for word) "not stoned but beautiful". he actually has a cover titled "stoned articulate", which is undoubtedly in relation to the "artistic effects" of LSD.

I think the song needs no meaning when you can play that good..

but i agree.

Jimi Hendrix wrote the song.

The summer of 1969 brought emotional and musical growth to Jimi Hendrix. In playing the Woodstock Music & Art Fair in August 1969, Jimi joined forces with an eclectic ensemble called Gypsy Sun & Rainbows featuring Jimi Hendrix, Mitch Mitchell, Billy Cox, Juma Sultan, and Jerry Velez. The Woodstock performance was highlighted by the renegade version of "Star Spangled Banner," which brought the mud-soaked audience to a frenzy. 1969 also brought about a new and defining collaboration featuring Jimi Hendrix on guitar, bassist Billy Cox and Electric Flag drummer Buddy Miles. Performing as the Band of Gypsys, this trio launched a series of four New Year's performances on December 31, 1969 and January 1, 1970.

Electric Ladyland is the last album by the Jimi Hendrix Experience. This album included the song "Voodoo Child" as it's last track. "Voodoo Child" was recorded in 1968 and re-released in 1970.

His name at birth, November 27, 1942, was Johnny Allen Hendrix. His dad, Al Hendrix, renamed him to James Marshall Hendrix on September 11, 1946.

Chas Chandler, discovered Jimi's talent and took him to Britain to begin his music carreer.

NO!!! He did not. Personnel in bands change as we all know over time. Jimi did NOT play with the group while at it's height of glory. And was NOT the "boy" referred to in the songs lyrics!! I should know. :) Here is a link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_Cherry_(band)

The "Jimi Hendrix Experience" was a band created by Chas Chandler which was focussed on Jimi Hendrix to give him the means to get his music out to the people, with Mitch Mitchell on drums and Noel Redding on bass, both formidable instrumentalists in their own right. Jimi (James Marshall) Hendrix was a unique talent. He had everything against him as a kid, but inspite of everything, he learned guitar and developed his own distinctive sound and style. He was left handed, had long fingers and was able to use his thumb as well. He wrote most of his own material and incorporated some brilliant harmonies between instruments and vocals.

After Hendrix died, she fell in love with Ulrich Roth. In 1996, she was found dead, age 50, in a car near her cottage.

Yes he was a member.

Woodstock was a three day festival ending on Sunday jimi Hendrix was the main highhlight of the event because in 1969 he really started to blowup but he arrived late to Woodstock playing on monday morning

The drummer, Mitch Mitchell died in 2008.

The greatest guitar riffs of all time are completely based off people's own tastes and styles. However in the music industry most big names consider Jimmy Hendrix to be the king of guitar notably the one in Voodoo Child.

Jimi Hendrix inspiresanybody who knows how to play rock guitar he was the one who made msic into what it is today without him music would stll be all orhestra.

f I ever write the story of my life

Don't be suprised if you're where it begins

Girl, I'd have to dedicate every line on every page

To the memories we made, while you loved me

I was born the day you kissed me

And I died inside the night you left me

But I lived, oh how I lived

While you loved me

I'd start with chapter one, love innocent and young

As the morning sun on a new day

Even though I know the end, Well I'd do it all again

'Cause I got a lifetime in, while you loved me

I was born the day you kissed me

And I died inside the night you left me

But I lived, oh how I lived

While you loved me

i was born the day you kissed me And I died inside the night you left me

But I lived, oh how I lived

(I lived)

I was born the day you kissed me

(the day you kissed me baby)

And I died inside the night you left me

But I lived, oh how I lived

(I lived) While you loved me

Rascall Flatts, While you loved me

Jimi Hendrix recorded and released his song Voodoo Child in 1968. The song was the last track on of the Jimi Hendrix Experience album Electric Ladyland.

little richard

He is around 22, at least that is what I read somewhere.

There's a red house over yonder

and that's where my baby stays

(repeat)

I ain't seen my baby in ninety nine

and one half days

Wait a minute, there's something wrong

My key won't unlock the door

(Repeat)

I got a bad, bad feelin'

my baby don't live here no more

Well, I guess I'll head on out

Head on out over the hill

(Repeat)

Cause if my baby don't love me no more

I know her little sister will

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.
