On the GOOD SIDE,check this out.I saw Randy Hansen in 79 at the Henry J Kaiser audotorium in Oakland Ca.Amazing Shit.In the very middle of jammin to FIRE,Randy Hansen got on his knees and twirled his Strat about 15 feet in the air,caught the guitar and kept on jamming like like JIMI.Any mis timing could have resulted in a broken face.But it did not.JIMI looking down at Randy that night would have said Yeah,Cool,good SHIT!!! John Couger that is what he called himself then was BOOOODDDD right off the fuckin stage.He SUCKED! Headlining was Blackmores Rainbow with Ronnie James Dio.Ritchie B almost made Randy look bad.GREAT NIGHT OF ROCK! RIP BILL GRAHAM

Been a Hendrix fanatic since 1969. Only a few individuals come close to duplcating the energy-flow and sound produced by Jimi. Stevie Ray Vaughan had the power, fluid dexterity and attack of Hendrix. Randy Hansen has a blend of the power, fluid dexterity, and attack of Hendrix, with one more attribute... Voice! His voice seems to mime Jimi's. No one can "be" Jimi except Jimi. But, both in sound and visually, Randy pulls off a legitimate copy of one of the greatest, most original guitarist and singers in history. Thank you Randy Hansen and Band for giving us the best Jimi Hendrix Experience today! Thanks to ufowalter for posting

I saw Randy play nearly 45 years ago in a small club down by the beach and he blew my young and impressionable mind. Jamming out on the street.... Randy is obviously a brilliant musician in his own right. As a guitar player myself what really strikes me seeing him so many years later is how much mileage Hendrix could get out of one position on the neck, and it never gets boring, and it never seems to repeat itself, even though its repeating itself over and over. Fantastic vibrato, Randy is, was and will be the whole package.

Ty nightngale. Im a bassist that plays multiple guitars as in six strings also. Guitarists are gifted. Think about this: when Randy was working this stuff out with the goal of authentisty, there was no youtube or head phone jacks on most amps nor usb ports. He had to rent a large commercial space some where alone at full Marshal volume then break a band in to get the high volume sound like that. Alot of fckn work just to be half as good as his hero. He's done credit to his aims. Most people who can't play much less at a high level just dont know how much work is involved. Then Play it and sing along as well. Another skill many don't have. Vocals and playing fluidly.

Many try and fall short which frustrates me... These guys however are amazing, no other way to explain it. I sat in the 2nd row in the Melbourne concert last week, F-ing incredible. Nearly brought tears to my eyes - really did not expect such a magnificent performance. Randy playing in amongst the crowd while he played my favourite - Voodoo Chile Slight Return. These guys are having fun... they love the crowd that supports them. Playing not only the singles - but some songs that only true fans would know. These guys are the real deal, and I have a new favourite band to follow! Please come back to Australia soon guys!

I started watching Randy in the late 70's at a place called Peter Guy's in Kent, WA. and he was great back then!
