Experience Hendrix FULL SHOW Seattle 9-19-24

[@bwhit716]

Kenny W Shepherd with Hendrix’s Strat……oh that tone and playing !!!

[@NormanPeterson]

Eric Johnson channels Jimi Hendrix the most gracefully and beautifully.

[@davea3286]

Yes, if anyone can do Hendrix justice, Johnson can. Definitely one of the greats.

[@michaelsicowitz362]

His chords compliment the melody, hell, I can't even explain it. He sure plays clean, and as fast as he needs to play fast. He's a true Hendrix fan.

[@mrreemann3739]

Actually, Frank Marino does. But he wasn't invited. Sad

Thank you for this post. I am enjoying the show at home! Chris Layton still has the goods after all these years. Imagine SRV still with us at this show...

[@SeattleStoodios]

Awesome, rock on!

[@cmc2234]

NONE of these clowns are worthy to be SRV's roadie, especially that dirty biker, Zakk Wylde.

[@misterroboto5556]

The Experience Hendrix tour really needs someone to deliver the goods Some of the most reputable guitarists in the world are playing at this Hendrix tribute show And most of them are BLOWING IT! Randy Hansen deserves to be on that stage!

[@danielhoward4566]

He would of make everyone else look like crap. #1 reason he is not on that stage.

[@zenlandzipline]

Randy is awesome. He sounds and looks like Hendrix more than anyone. But you aren’t looking at this properly: these are all artists playing here that have made a musical career playing their own songs. Hendrix’s may have been an influence for these players, but they didn’t make an entire career out of imitating Hendrix. Hanson SHOULD sound more like Hendrix than any of these guys, because he has spent his entire life doing a Hendrix tribute show.

[@siepip]

RANDY HANSEN 10000

[@michaelsicowitz362]

It's not easy. There's a handful of guys that really get it, the same ones who are fans like Eric Johnson. You know that guy goes home and listens to Jimi.

[@stevespringer1117]

⁠ I second that!!

[@deanlongthon4963]

Saw this about 15 years ago and kenny Wayne Shepard killed it. Absolutely

[@spacecowboyjoe17]

It was awesome, I was just there last night, really great shows and performers, Henri's voice was great.

[@SeattleStoodios]

I agree!

[@stevemaass3074]

Shout out to Mato Nanji. Maybe not as well known as some of the others on the stage, but a great player and very deserving of being there.

[@deandee8082]

kick arse show, Jimi had a big smile for sure .. he's all over Seattle, cap hill, pioneer square, alki, renton, south center, burien, white center, magnolia, ballard, parkers ballroom, everywhere . . .

[@80neski]

It's like watching Stevie again. Amazing

[@lewisaveryfiler7087]

I have never been able to get into KWS. However, after watching him here, especially during Voodoo Chile, I think it is time to I gave him another try.

[@MrKaycee23]

Kenny wayne shepherd and Eric johnson kill it🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@bobbarcus9415]

Watching this you realize how great Hendrix was! Not one of these very top tier talented acts comes close the vibe, raw energy, swagger and his pure artistry. That's how innovative and original he was! Great songwriter, sonically innovative, soulful vocals ,incredible guitar player, killer rhythm player. The guitar was an extension of his body, mind and soul. One of kind!

[@fenderstratocasterlover9190]

Erick could have played the whole show, just him self.. he totally killed it 🤩

[@williamb.8059]

Jimi was not about race.

[@Whydoesithurtup808.]

[@siepip]

Jimi Came from R&B and Black Night Clubs they should have guitarist that are still alive that cut their teeth with him be a part of this

[@tommyharrisjr7338]

@@williamb.8059 Hendrix was a black man B4 ANYTHING, and having more of that black presence in his music, at "Experience Hendrix" is VERY important. His music is Desired by all, but 2 say Jimi's music was not about race is BS because Jimi himself wanted more black folk in the audience, and even tried 2 do benefit gigs 4 the Black Panthers.

Today is September 21. Tomorrow, they play in Reno, Nevada. I have nosebleed seats. Hopefully the sound is better. Im really looking forward to seeing taj mahal live. Im 65 and always missed his shoes before.

[@SeattleStoodios]

Have a blast, the sound should be better back further from the stage. Taj is a legend.

[@valogden]

I like that they have some of the best guitar players out there playing. I know they have some that come in for a few days when their tours permit. I'm hoping to see some footage of Taj Farrant when he plays in a couple of weeks.

RANDY HANSEN before it is too late

[@sprintcarsandguitars959]

and his wah,a hendrix show and no wah????

[@romeulins2480]

Perhaps due to the proximity of the guitar box, more in Master Taj Mahal's performance, the vocals were affected! But, it was worth it for the historical record! Very good! Jimi is alive and well!

[@SeattleStoodios]

I agree, Taj’s vocals were particularly quiet, and I think you are correct, there are some drawbacks to being right at the edge of the stage, like amp placement. It was a dream to see a legend play though. Rock on!

[@FraCosta.]

[@GTR-ULTRA-2025]

KWS is worth the admission price! Thanks 4 the vids!

[@SeattleStoodios]

Agreed!

[@mrreemann3739]

The difference between Hendrix and all these players is simple. These guys play guitar... Jimi fused with the guitar, it was part of his body and soul.

[@MrStanleyMilton]

Seems like Kenny W. Shephard and Noah Hunt have been performing these tunes all along...Very at ease and in the moment ,where some other performances were a bit tentative maybe?

[@jeffturcottedrums]

Hendrix wasn't just about him though Noel Redding and especially Mitch Mitchell helped give him his sound. Mitchell used to go off and here the rhythm section was holding back, just my take!

[@NickTrash01]

Just curious and im guessing it might have already been addressed but why is Billy Cox not on bass specifically for this Seattle show?

[@miked6426]

Stone free°°

[@Rcprobot]

Nobody touches Kenny Wayne Shepherd. I went to see the show live years ago and he did voodoo child and it was like Hendrix was there. It was the most unbelievable thing I’ve ever seen in my life.

[@daredevildaryl2645]

Great video but audio sounded better back in the audience further

[@SeattleStoodios]

Yeah, sound usually sucks up close, there was a speaker right next to my face. I enjoy both views but couldn't pass up a chance to see so many great guitarists up close. Glad you got to see the show in person, rock on!

[@LLVEFREEORDIE]

Is Dweezil Zappa still a part of this tour? Is he in there and I'm just not recognizing him?

@TE300_Tim He is, but he didn’t play at the Seattle show. He will play some of the later dates on the tour.

Years ago they had Mitch Mitchell, Chas Chandler, Billy Cox as support band for everyone including Randy Hansen on guitar for last set. Amazing. Wow the lack of preparation on some of this is unforgivable.Felt bad for Eric Johnson, but why not at least work stuff out before, or just not do it at all rather than trying to sing a song you cannot remember? Nothing more annoying than people in audience who wont shut the heck up the whole time.

Taj jammed with Jimi in 1970.

[@ef418]

No thanks. If you want to Experience Hendrix, then go see Randy Hansen. He is the only one on the planet that comes close to the real deal.

[@MrStanleyMilton]

Axis seems rushed as Johnson can barely get his words out-and he seems very nervous singing this one-but his playing is an excellent study of Jimi's attack.

[@Sunnbobb]

Good playing but dreadful sound - guitar is buried below the rhythm section for the most part. Lack of any real dynamics - something that defined Jimi's playing.
