"Wild Thing" Monterey Pop Fesival, June 18th 1967

Wow, I know this is more of an alternative music site, but I'm kinda surprised this isn't already here. At least now there is a thread dedicated to the greatest guitarist of all time.

I'm going to edit the title to simply Jimi Hendrix, for searching purposes.

But I agree. He is a legendary guitarist, and I find that he doesn't really get acknowledged in today's society.

Santa Clara Pop Festival 1969

Sounds good

Yeah its unfortunate that he gets over looked. There are a number of songs that fit right in with MCR, and would make some really nice covers:

I Don't Live Today ~ "I wish you'd hurry up and execute me, so I can be on my miserable way" Nice song to hear when feelin down, interesting lyrics with amazing beat

If 6 was 9 ~ "Cause I got my own world to live through, and I ain't gonna copy you" Totally about being your own person and sticking it to those who judge you

Burning Of The Midnight Lamp ~ "The morning is dead, and the day is two. There's nothin here with me, but the velvet moon." Song about loneliness with amazing lyrics and crazy guitar sound effects

House Burning Down ~ "Sisters and Brothers Daddy's Mothers standin round cryin. when I reached the scene the flames were makin a ghostly whine" Erie story about space aliens with and unbelievable ending guitar solo.

Hey Joe ~ "Yes I did I shot her, you know I caught my baby messin round town. Yeah I gave her the gun....I SHOT HER!" Not written by Hendrix but his most famous cover.

Manic Depression ~ "Music sweet music, I wish I could caress. Oh manic depression is one fustratin mess!" The mixed up feelings of attraction

I feel the need to bump this up as next week on the 18th is the 41st anniversary of the International Monterey Pop Festival and thus of the following event which instantly became rock legend never to be forgotten.


I would have done this on the actual day, but by then I'm gonna be partying nonstop on some Hawaiian beachSmile So yeah, a good chance I won't have computer access next week.

Rock on! ~ Rex
