Hey Joe - Jimi Hendrix (acoustic fingerstyle) Martin OM

[@realityschmeality]

One of the dopest covers I have ever heard of Hey Joe, by far. Epic.

[@JacquesStotzem]

Thanks

[@luisrobertonova9321]

For me, this is the best version of this song that has been done on acoustic guitar. Greetings from the DR. this smells like pure Mississippi!

[@JacquesStotzem]

Thanks for your great compliment !

[@SimAG117]

I concur

[@rongin4evr]

This is an amazing arrangement of Hey Joe. By far my favorite.

[@Alicia1984NL]

Yeah, mine too!! Not easy to find a great one.

[@demetriogarciaiii1760]

You might want to check out Joscho Stephan's version of Hey Joe.

[@EviMlcak]

I will do that but this Jacques version is too incredible to ignore. It's perfection, as good as the Hendrix original.@@demetriogarciaiii1760

[@albertomartinez2479]

Amazing crescendo. A simple tune made into a symphony. Thanks for posting.

[@JacquesStotzem]

Thanks for your comment :)

[@DavidYardas]

I was a different person when this was posted. Dude is gold!

[@zepp2498]

F A N T A S T I Q U E , bravo. Hendrix would have like it so much, I am sure. I don't like to compare....but your cover is the one I feel most. Thank you for sharing

[@JacquesStotzem]

Thanks for your nice words ! Jacques

[@kickassrockguitar]

I am laughing right now at just how insanely brilliant this rendition is and your skills are. Bravo.

[@CZECHMATE650]

If you see the Billy Roberts version. It's a home run too. He even looks like Tobey Maguire from the Spider-Man movies! "It's Pizza 🍕 Time"

[@martin3xx18]

very very nice

[@jerseyjess6151]

I think that's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. I'd have given anything to have had such a relationship with my daughter. You're doing the right things, I cried watching this lovely video.

[@dieselman7453]

Just seeing this now I might have a go at it great job my man cheers from Ireland 🇮🇪🎸🎸🎸Brian

[@JacquesStotzem]

[@davidgrutzmacher9730]

Touched by the hand of god.Its best version of this Billy Robert's song.You are truly blessed Jacques.

You do realize what you do to us average players who lived happy life thinking we approached some playing level :-)

[@prutissbartlow8835]

amen😉😁

[@touchofgrey5372]

This has to be one of the wittiest reply in all of KZbin.

[@MWFord]

I call it inspiration to help Music be heard...

[@kennethbransford820]

Like American idol?

[@rectrorick]

Well... I'm gonna just hang my guitar up on the wall 😔 the is such a lovely sounding Martin guitar. My hands are up and now down to you sir!! Fantastic......

[@echapagredou8351]

This it become my favorite arrangement for this song. Great job, you are really good player. And the sound is awesome with this guitar !!

[@JacquesStotzem]

Thanks

[@campfirecrooner]

acoustic Hendrix sounds marvelous

[@JacquesStotzem]

thanks !

[@JulienMARY]

Who are the 22 oysters who could put thumb down on this ?!? That's a master play ....

[@terryallen9546]

Ha! Every time I think I'm close to figuring out our world... Had no idea calling someone an Oyster was an insult. Is there a mollusk pecking order?

[@kapitanbordchicoy8417]

Now there are 85 oysters

[@chuckcurtin]

I see 95 asswipes

[@WildBill1120]

Terry Allen LOL!😂😂😂

[@AdaptivePhenix]

Prince fans probably. They have no idea about _real_ guitar playing.

[@paulthierry6651]

je crois que c'est la plus belle version que j'ai entendu jusqu'à maintenant ! :-)

[@JacquesStotzem]

Merci :)

[@wboyo8905]

Goddamn! That Was Fantastic! Jimi Himself would have been awed! Damn, that was SO Good!!! You ROCK!.

What an awesome arrangement! Just 'discovered' this now. I love acoustic guitars - don't have patience with electric guitars.

[@JacquesStotzem]

thanks for your comment !

[@hrdknox2000]

EXCELLENT!!! You make the average American music consumer impressed with your composition÷

[@JacquesStotzem]

Thanks for your comment !

[@thedavydark]

"Nobody should play Hendrix on an acoustic guitar" - UNLESS they are bald, wear glasses and are able to "catch the spirit ". At which point it becomes obligatory ;) Merci Jacques pour une soirée inoubliable dinl'foss. You are a constant source of inspiration and never cease to amaze.

[@JacquesStotzem]

:) :) Thanks for your comment and the concert yesterday night was a big pleasure for me :) A la prochaine !

[@guitarDad100]

That was fantastic. You sound like Hendrix on and acoustic guitar. This is the best version of this song on YT. Thanks for posting.

[@JacquesStotzem]

Thanks for your comment !

[@dano1234ize]

please look the Joscho Stephan trio version and let me know yr findings

[@terryallen9546]

Luc, Gypsy Jazz style is fantastic, too. KZbin is like sitting down to a Anthony Bourdain banquet. It is all delicious.

[@nicolamurru6972]

Wow... Some brilliant ideas here I enjoyed it

[@JacquesStotzem]

thanks !

[@edadan]

I used to play banjo and wore those same finger picks, but haven’t seen anyone play something so amazing as this using them on the guitar! Very, very cool.

[@JacquesStotzem]

thank you !

[@clementinefg2295]

Phenomenal cover. You really DO have God given talent. You have inspired me to go pick up my guitar!!!

Just when I thought I've managed to just about ok-ish-ly learn this song, I see this video. Thank you so much for making me want to improve my playing style for this legendary song. Greetings and cheers from India.

Hi Thanks ! I am OK ! Unfortunately no concerts are possible at the moment, but I hope to be back on stage from January !

[@georgekiapos1]

Excellent performance! I've got to learn this version!!!

[@JacquesStotzem]

thanks !

[@toddturnipseed1212]

With heart! I'm learning this song (on guitar) and i knew i was facing an impossible hill to climb (watching Mr. Hendrix play it over and over). Finding your cover didn't make it any easier. Beautifully played Sir.

you do you gotta drown with the guitar or use it to aflot away to the skies only 2 ways leaving it alone is not an option

This is the best accountant I've ever seen play acoustic Hendrix. Ever!

[@adriantaylor289]

Just so good 🤩

[@JacquesStotzem]

Thanks !

[@CZECHMATE650]

I'm glad he said Billy Roberts cover & not Hendrix. It's an old Appalachian folk tune that Roberts recorded after his longtime Girl left him. If you ever get to see the cover Billy Roberts looked a lot like Toby McGuire

[@jonnyxmac666]

absolutely amazing, Hendrix inspired me to pick up a guitar @ 9 yrs old, still play this song daily, i now need an acoustic & go back to my roots, 49 & inspired by an acoustic & im a fender bender

[@falcvn721]

Inspirational indeed; really enjoyed this version. All the best to you.
