Another very skilled guitarist who is self taught is Stevie Ray Vaughan. Another one of the great masters and definitely a personal favorite. No one can quite play like he did, and I wish Jimi stuck around long enough to jam with him. That would have been the greatest jam session of all time. It is a shame most of the greats die so young...

Stevie used to have dreams about meeting Jimi and jamming with him, his wife said Stevie would air guitar in his sleep, often waking her up.

Keith Emerson of the Nice and, of course, Emerson, Lake and Palmer, originally asked Jimi Hendrix to join the band, instead of Greg Lake. Lake is a good guitarist/bassist and vocalist, but can you imagine Keith Emerson on the moog with Jimi on guitar? If Jimi had lived a little while longer, I am sure we would have seen it. It is just a shame he died as ELP was just starting to pick up speed.

It would have been amazing to see Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray and Clapton all play little wing together...

SRV was a maniac!! Great blues player. Horrible addict though. i watched an interview where he said he would dump coke into his whiskey and drink it. really sad. But he was a great player.

nevermind

The most beautiful man in the world.
I was fortunate enough to be born on his birthday!

I smoked three bowls and a blunt for him today. Those were for you buddy...

robobond · 09-19-2006, 05:06 AM

Any guitars players here who play his music. I can play purple haze and star spangeled banner but I really want to play little wing bad lol. Tough song.

Tarkus · 09-19-2006, 05:25 AM

I used to play some Hendrix...have not really kept up with it though. I listen to at least one song of his everyday...at least one. But then again, the same goes for Pink Floyd, ELP, ELO and many others, but still.

On a lighter note, people that were born today:
Frankie Avalon, singer
Kerry Livgren, singer for Kansas
Dee Dee Ramone, bassist for the Ramones
Lance Armstrong, cyclist
Great Garbo, actress
Xzibit, rapper
and who cant forget Queen Anne of Romania and pope Gregory XVI?
