sophiasummer: I appreciate and dig all the above, cool thread..

How ever "Jimi" just does it for me! (was it, lived it, shared it)

In every movement of his fingers was a song within itself..

"I've been imitated so well I've heard people copy my mistakes."

leonjs49: thanks


Oh no. Thank you. Researching blues guitar is a hobby that I neglested for far too long these last few months. U have put so much food for thought out on this thread that I cannot help but be ever so gratefulhug

funny but as the blues migrated thru the south (usa) rockabilly and later psychobilly really became a favorite too - Dwight Yokam is once of my favorite guitarists along with EVH even tho they play a little differently (just a little?laugh )I like the Rev too (Horton Heat)

one for the road

Right on Gf!

I put my DVD Woodstock on in the weekend, and just am memorised by his playing once again!
My friends who have their own bands here in NZ, he is worshiped as such, some have roots of blues weaved into their music, and even if they have a different sway on their music, all credit JIMI for the taste many years ago to start the recipe for their guitar playing art..
bowing

I will downloaded a photo of my friends bands check out the guitars..
Ill flick it onto my profile as not sure how to do it here.
