I was raised in Ayrshire Scotland 🏴. In '67 my cousin bought me a copy of the Are You Experienced? record for my Christmas 🎄☃️🎄 It was "Red House" that was "it" for me. That track made me want to play guitar. That same cousin talked my mum and dad into letting me tag along with them to the Isle of Wight in 1970. My parents had immigraned to the USA (via Canada) after the war and by 1970 had been able to purchase a home. Since I was changing School anyway, they decided to bring me to live full time in their new hometown of Seattle. I only mentioned that because at the Isle of Wight in 1970 Emerson, Lake & Palmer played their 1st or 2nd ever public performance. Oh yeah some guy from Seattle played guitar, too 😊. On my father's birthday, less than a fortnight after I was settled in to my new home in Seattle, we got the news that Jimi was gone. For myself, 18 September 1970 will forever be "the day the music died".

Watch any of the videos on the recording of The Beatles Tomorrow Never Knows, which was recorded in April of 1966, released august 66 almost a year before are you experienced. The Beatles had all been given tape recorders and were encouraged to experiment with making sounds with them. Paul figured out if you disabled the erase head on the recorder you could tape over the same loop several times saturating the sounds recorded on that loop...and by playing those tapes backwards of slower or faster you could create new sounds.....on tomorrow never knows the "seagull" sound is actually a tape of paul laughing sped up. They made a bunch of loops of a melotron, a sitar, an orchestral chord, paul laughing and a guitar solo, and changed the speeds of them or played them in reverse, then they took those loops and played all of them continuously by playing the loop continuously on a multitrack machine, and used sliders to raise the volume to bring them sounds in and then cut it off totally and intermittently add the sounds at different times in the song, just by raising the volume sliders up for a few seconds at a time, before cutting them off again. Ringos drums were heavily compressed and they stuffed the base drum with clothing to mute it to get the special drum sound...and Johns vocals in part were played through a rotating leslie speaker cabinet to get his vocal effect. The Beatles were the originals when it came to experimenting and coming up with new sounds and sound effects.......

We got tickets to see him not too long after that at the Bushnell Auditorium in Hartford Ct. Amazing show. It goes without saying that he was a true innovator. He used gimmicks early on like setting his guitar on fire, smashing gear, playing behind his back and with his teeth., He slowly got away from that and later felt comfortable just playing and that’s when he did his best stuff. Check out his live performance from Atlanta Georgia. On top of his game.

Fantastic reaction to a wild song! I used to look at the record spin on the turntable as I listened to this as a little kid, frozen, almost freaked out by the music, but more intrigued than anything! HOWEVER: backwards recording was in en vogue at this time due to The Beatles, specifically the Revolver album (1966), and specifically the songs "I'm Only Sleeping" and "Tomorrow Never Knows", which might be even more mind-blowing and psychedelic than THIS song, if you can believe such a thing! "Tomorrow Never Knows" sort of started the psychedelic space race!!! And Jimi definitely loved the Beatles and was influenced by them. (for one, he moved to England to get famous! :D )

There was one club they all used to go to frequently (I can't remember the name of it). One night, Jimi Hendrix and his band came out to perform. No one knew who he was. In the audience, The Beatles, Clapton and The Stones looked on as Jimi opened up. Clapton was the guitar god at the time, but as soon a Jimi started playing, everyone just stopped. Their jaws dropped as they tried to process what thew were seeing. Jimi was like nothing they'd ever seen before. He was in a completely different realm. The other performers looked over at Clapton, and Clapton just stood there in shock.... like his crown was just ripped away from him. Jimi Hendrix became alot of the top musicians favorite guitarist after that. He was above all the rest.

Both Paul and George Harrison have said that even for them, Jimi Hendrix revamped their own concept of the role electric guitar 🎸 would be seen forever more. Listen to rock guitar before 1967 and then listen to the guitar on pretty much anything after 1967. You're going to notice the difference between the two almost immediately, once you know what you're listening for. What changed? THAT RECORD!! We'd never heard anything like that coming from from a guitar, ever. Jimi Hendrix is the most important, most influential guitar player who has ever lived. Second only to Louis Armstrong as the most important musician in the history of American music. What Jimi Hendrix did for the guitar, Satchmo did for the music itself a half a century earlier. These two titans of American music are the giants upon whose shoulders all others stand so that they might see farther. Robert Johnson, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Sidney Bechet, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker and all the rest including Jimi himself, owe a debt of gratitude to "little Louis". A fatherless waif from a neighborhood in New Orleans that was so rough, so violent that it was actually known as "the battlefield" that would grow up to bring Jazz and Blues to the world 🌎. "Pops" was the World's Ambassador of Music. His smile could light up Times Square in broad daylight 😊 and his corner on the 1928 recording of "West End Blues" will melt your heart. Oh yeah, this was about Jimi Hendrix, sorry. So check out "Red House" from the original UK release of the Are You Experienced? record. It's probably the song that, as a wee laddie growing up in Scotland in 1967, did the "revamped my brain" thing that Brian Wilson (Beach Boys) has said happened to him when he heard "Be My Baby" and the Wall of Sound production of Phil Spector on that record. "Once you hear that record", Wilson stated in an interview for the PBS documentary series Rock & Roll, "You're a fan for life." He was not wrong about that.

A taste of the technique is sprinkled throughout "I'm Only Sleeping". But backwards guitar makes up a major portion of the soundscape of "Tomorrow Never Knows". Not to take anything away from Jimmy or this fantastic song. He took the technique and ran with it, experimenting with it throughout his discography.
