Jimi Hendrix - Hear My Train A Comin' (Official Lyric Video)

Hendrix is like the messiah of rock music. It's Hendrix (BC) Before Hendrix and then, it's Hendrix (AD) After Hendrix. He is the center of it all.

Indeed.

[@cheryllibbea8546]

So glad I saw Jimi play 3 times and also saw him in a small Hollywood market late night; he put his arm around me, only one Jimi!!! Saw you at Monterey Pop Festival also; your music lives in my heart forever!

[@TheDoomedUser]

Mitch matched Jimi's vibe in perfect harmony. so much energy

[@woodgecko106]

is this mitch? doesn't sound like him

[@tobyweaver3056]

It's Buddy Miles

[@louisbonilla6780]

He never does the songs the same way ...always reinventing his music!

[@patyrod]

So true!

[@majaeuthymia1142]

Ask humbly for the lock to be untied. Devoted I threw myself at the holy feet I asked for mercy and for him to open it for me.

Saw The Great Jimi at Fillmore Auditorium in '67. Just amazing. On the bill was Big Brother & The Holding Co. (Janis Joplin), fresh from The Monterey Pop Festival.

Really lucky sob. Slightly too young. Anonymous Jimi/Janis Lover

[@MrJessDancing]

That must have been a concert for the ages. Wow.

[@melaniehamilton6550]

I'm absolutely consumed with envy. I was just a little too young at the time to travel to major concerts. Damn, must've been fantastic!

[@popyflower]

i saw jimi three times in u.k. he was amazing in small clubs, the guitar sounds made you want to freak out, loud and electrifying.

When I was 12 in 1968 I got my first Hendrix album. Been riding that rainbow ever since. Rjm

[@letitiagould988]

When Jimmy H plays his guitar 🎸 it takes your mind and thoughts in another direction.

[@arcangeld.o.7224]

Correct, nobody can't touch that.🗽 Exacto.

[@mickeydavidson5261]

Jimmi was the best ever, They broke the mold after he showed up on the seen. 🎸🎸🎸⚘RIP jimmi

[@purpleway8008]

Well I hear my train coming Hear my train coming [Verse] Well, I wait around the train station Waiting for that train Take me, take me, take me away From this lonesome town Lonesome town Too bad you don't love me any more, girl Too bad your people put me down Hey, hey, hey Tears burning me Tears burning me in my eyes Way down, way down in my soul Burning me way down in my heart Too bad you don't love me no more, girl Too bad you and me have to part Have to part [Chorus] Well I hear my train coming Hear my train coming Well I hear my train coming Hear my train coming

[@cosmos938]

Jimi Hendrix is the father of rock guitar before him you can't hear these sounds from a guitar and really till today you still don't hear them nobody today can play like Jimi because nobody has his imagination when you hear Jimi Hendrix touches you deep down inside of your creative soull and the only thing I can look up and say is thank you for having the courage to be you I am who I am thank god.

[@kaceyholck1731]

well there is some truth to that, but that Is subjective. his feel was amazing and technique is loose and tight at the same time. I do disagree on there is no one that can effect you like jimi, for me john fruicsante, srv, touch my soul just as well but I digress.

[@jimmypancakes2012]

Ever seen a comma?

[@alloraquindi6368]

Cream with clapton

[@Sabbatical_k]

what about Stevie Ray Vaughan??? i say SRV is even better than Jimi.. but he learned from the best

[@distantquasar5218]

@@Sabbatical_k I say Jimi Hendrix is the greatest guitarist ever because what he did in the sixtys with a guitar still can't be duplicated today with modern technology. There isn't a solo today played by a guitarist that Jimi couldn't play, their are plenty of solos that nobody came close to duplicating that Jimi played here's two. Power of Love by Jimi Hendrix and the band of gypsies, and Machine Gun, on the same album. Nobody can play those two songs no where close to how Jimi played them. This is why I say Jimi was the greatest guitarist ever because most of his solos can't be duplicated even with the modern technology of today, and he did it more then fifty years ago.

[@nicholaswhite9685]

That solo could raise the dead

[@stephaniewong4342]

Jimi Hendrix= legend,true artist

[@larkinfessenden6150]

Indeed!!!!

[@stephanieshaw8065]

OMG! Absolutely adore him. A deep primal soul feeling.

[@robertcollins6864]

Best guitar player, period. Thanks for the memories.

[@Christopher-gp7ej]

The bass is wicked in this grooving the whole way!!

[@Clunk49]

Ya mess around and fall into the groove, and don't want to leave it.

[@mb6412]

Don‘t dare to imagine, if he had „missed his train“ and had given us more years full of further music pieces of art

[@joserodrigues-vq8pz]

Jimi Hendrix had the power to fuse rock'n'roll with the blues! He was amazing and ahead of is time...

[@sosa3252]

This man played left handed on an upside down guitar also with his teeth and made it sound beautiful and people have the nerve to say he's not one of the best to ever live.

[@tr377723]

He really was the greatest of all times. So many light years ahead of his time.

[@CjBrimm]

Jimi got so much good shit its hard to say favorites

[@killerdwarf7]

R.I.P Jimi Hendrix. Everybody and anybody out there who has played a guitar, or plays a guitar, has him to thank for where the instrument and the music has been taken to. He influenced so many generations and genres of music, truly a great artist. I often wonder what he'd be playing and doing with music now had he not left our world so soon. Also...how can 152 people dislike this video?!? Shame shame!

[@boomboomerton7394]

hes one of my top influences not just guitar but songwriting.... "machine gun" is my fav. of all time.

[@acermikecermik2701]

+ JT Bomar Great musician, and a great person...When i play a song from jimi im happy. haha sorry for my english... R.I.P James.

[@8OBO8]

J.T. Bomar Yh literally same man BoG machine gun, goat song

[@wiretom]

He and Brian Jones would of took us to a new planet no doubt ....
