does /mu/ like Hendrix?

Great in studio but shit live.
>>
>>61154784
It really depends on what you're listening to. A lot of the live stuff is rather hit or miss, I'll give you that, but when you find good live recordings, they're GOOD! Jimi at Monterey Pop for example is great. Jimi at Woodstock has some good moments. The Band of Gypsies album is also chill. But Jimi plays Berkley and The Isle of White shows are mediocre at best

Great live but shit in studio.

Great shit but live in studio.

Electric Ladyland is amazing
>>
Studio in live but great in shit.
>>
Lived in studio, shit in grate
>>
Great in but live shit studio in.
>>
Live: Great Shit in Studio

Hendrix is god tier no doubt. Crazy to imagine what music would have came if he didn't die. He was talking with Miles Davis and Gil Evans in 69 when they made Filles de Kilimanjaro.

Second version of machine gun is my favorite. Still got my dads original pressing
>>
>>61155439
>Great in but
Damn..
>>
"She's So Fine" is the song The Who WISH they had written, but Hendix beat them to it!
>>
amazing musician. one of the best that ever lived.
>>
>>61154784
Great all around
>>
He's the greatest

wording moves around :(

>>61154868
you probably sucked your thumb til age 4.

>>61154784
everybody on /mu/ should listen to Electric Ladyland at least once. It's such a great fusion of soul/funk/psych/rock. He definitely gets too little attention here, probably because he isn't a cute woman or a rapper.
>>
>>61155468
>Tfw you'll never hear Jimi Hendrix playing with Miles Davis

That album isn't that good m8

>>61154784
He's the GOAT.
definitely doesn't get discussed about enough, When it comes to his live stuff, listen to Woodstock or Monterey or pick up one of his live compilation albums that have all the good stuff because his live stuff can be hit and miss especially if you aren't use to him. Studio wise his first three are great but definitely should start with are you experienced? Or Electric Ladyland, Axis has amazing and i mean amazing songs but overall it can fall flat for its production. Other than that Band OF Gypsys is a nobrainer, everyonr should listen to it once if not for only "Machine Gun" which ranks in his top 5 or 3 tracks he ever recorded especially since its a live cut. His posthumous album The Cry Of Love is beautiful and really is the best thing they could have released after his death
>>
>>61156700
On that note my top 10 would have to be
>Little Wing
>Purple Haze
>Machine Gun(Band of Gypsys version)
>Voodoo Child(Slight Return)
>Spanish Castle Magic
>One Rainy Wish
>Foxey Lady
>Burning of The Midnight Lamp
>Have you ever been to(Electric Ladyland)
>Suddenly November Morning(makes me tear up)
>>
>>61154784

hell yes

He's shit

>>61158993
>wanting anything SRV touches

why
>>
>>61154784
GOAT dadrock desu familia
>>
>>61159026
I know he's pretty shit song writing wise but the dude can play some blooz, mix that with hendrixs knowledge of said blues and ability to write great songs and bam, blooz for days
>>
I always watch Stockholm live to see Mitch Mitchell fuck up the beginning of spanish castle magic and Hendrix looks at him like "wtf nigga".
>>
>>61159181
Haha i thought i was the only one who noticed, I love watching that show, something about a sloppy and angry hendrix really adds to the music
>>
>>61159090
but SRV is just a shittier Muddy Waters
>>
>>61159090
Do people even like Blues on this board? It's too repetitive for me, but I never see the genre discussed here.
>>
>>61159333
Aw come on now dont say that
>>
>>61159392
I do but its not a main genre for me, i got heavily into the older stuff but yeah the genre is extremely repetitive especially the more modern stuff so i only listen to it once in a while but when i do.i get really into it

You're suggesting Muddy Waters isn't fucking incredible? Most of his stuff after about 1966 is formulaic (Electric Mud as the exception) but early Muddy is genuinely great great music.

As for Hendrix: A bit over-egged because he died young (playing-wise I think zappa was better) but obviously fucking great and iconic. Crosstown traffic is also a timeless party record

>>61159452
>posting the inferior memedrix from death grips
>>
>>61159473
There would be no hendrix or srv and countless others if it wasnt for based a'f muddy fucking waters
>>
>>61159473
no, i'm implying that Muddy is so fucking based there's no reason to listen a shitty derivative of him like SRV

Fathers & Sons is the tops
>>
>>61159571
Hes more of a albert king rip off honestly, but that reminds me how triggering it is to hear about a guitarist being really good except they cant write a good song to save their lives
>>
Whitest sounding nigger in music history.
>>
>>61157589
wtf man where's voodoo chile (the long one)??
>>
>>61160205

yep, underrated as hell.
>>
>>61160205
It really is hard to decide a top 10 without feeling like im leaving out a whole bunch of other great songs like
>1983
>all along the watch tower
>Freedom
>angel
>drifting
>Bold as love
>if 6 was 9
>little miss lover
>manic depression
And others i cant remember right now, theyrr all great though

is BoG Machine Gun the Filmore East 1st show?
>>
>>61161211
Its the third if im not mistaken
>>
>>61161211
>>61162014
NVM Its the second show i just checked,im a retard sorry
>>
>>61159294

Yea he looked worn out, but still wanted to put on a show for the people no matter what. Nowadays artist can cancel shows.
>>
>>61154784
Only guitarists who are either better than him or on his level are Lifeson, Iommi, Darrell, Richards, and GIlmour. Wish more ppl acknowledged this.
>>
>>61159294

Haha also Noel Redding's Bass maxed out drowns out Hendrix
>>
>>61162107
His showmanship and perfectionism to put out good music is a big reason i admire him
>>
>>61162357
Haha yeah its really heavy in the recording, theres a torrent of the other show also where he opens up with I dont live today if i recall correctly, that shows better than this one
>>
>>61154868
