Hendrix
Jimi Hendrix is one of the
best guitarists ever. Sure, when a musician reaches a certain
level of greatness, then it is a matter of personal
taste of who is better, rather than a fact. What sets Hendrix in the upper
echelon is his ability to just flat out play guitar. While he
is thought of as a lead guitarist, his rhythm playing is just as
incredible. Also impressive is his ability to perform across any
style of music, whether rock, blues, jazz, gospel, psychedelic,
etc. Many great guitarist perfect what they do best, such as
Jimmy Page's knack for the blues and hard rock, but it is rare to be
outstanding within so many different styles. And let's not forget
his ability to compose songs.
Jimi Hendrix recorded an
extraordinary amount material in his short career. There have been many
different releases of his studio and live releases over the years. The
Hendrix family was given control of his vault and have done a good job of
consolidating scattered studio sessions. They have also released
several live recordings and even set up a label Dagger Records to issue
concerts that are only available through mail order.
