I can't quite explain it theoretically but one of the reasons I love chord progressions like Hey Joe and Little Wing is that they allow a very wide range of note choices as long as you stay "around" Em pentatonic. You can easily come up with all kinds of crazy licks and it still sounds okay and sometimes even great.

I think Hendrix’s pocket and groove was decades ahead of the 60’s… I hear him and and you hear grooves and rhythms that would then be heard with bands like the chili peppers and rage against the machine. And the colors he creates with tone, solos, and vibe. Every time I circle back to him is such an exciting adventure

RJ’s Hendrix courses will be more on the technical aspects of Jimi’s playing. So of the basic info may be similar but we dive in in way more detail to the picking hand soloing techniques etc. My course sets the foundation and will give you an understanding what he was doing RJ’s is more about feel and technique.

ok you two mad Jimi aficionados, both clearly masterful.. I've heard you both play lot's of JImi here with great strats, done lots of specific pedal demos, on and on... but I've yet to hear anyone match the kind of smooth saturation and girth of Villanova Junction at Woodstock. Massive, OD'd, yet smooth and tonefull... or the gigantic sound of Voodoo Child Slight Return, the Electric Ladylland album version, particularly right after the intro, when he kicks in the fuzzface, Incredible sound, yet to be bettered. If I could assign you two a challenge, that would be it, approach those iconic Jimi sounds. Can it be done?
@BrettPapa11 ай бұрын
Well there are a number of things that go into that. 1. Jimi and his hands. 2. All of those tones go through specific amps and cabinets, in a certain room, with a mic, into a mic preamp or board, compressors. EQ, recorded onto a tape machine, and on and on. So many things go into the tones we are hearing on records. The tone Jimi was hearing and got while playing may not even be what ended up on the record. All that being said we can all strive to get close haha!
@tylerboley178611 ай бұрын
@@BrettPapa agreed of course. I've been chasing sounds since I saw him live in Seattle in 1968, and 2 times after that. I've used original FFs and plexis of the era, and way to many strats, and much more. This has been going on all these decades. I realize what you are saying of course. I'm just pointing out, that despite renewed attention by smart and talented people and current technology, no one has yet to really approach some of those tones...
