Hendrix "Wildest Guitar Hero" of All-Time

Posted almost 5 years ago
From the "BBC":bbc
Jimi Hendrix has been crowned the "wildest guitar hero" of all-time in a poll of music fans for Classic Rock magazine...Hendrix beat Rolling Stones legend Keith Richards into second place, with Stevie Ray Vaughan in third...Classic Rock editor Scott Rowley said Hendrix had a "devastating technique" and "redefined the term 'guitar hero'".
See more from Classic Rock Magazine's page "here":CRMRecently, I posted that story about the guy in Seattle who ripped off Hendrix’s name and signature and used it on the label for some hokey vodka he was peddling. This should realign things a little.[bbc]http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/6427199.stm[CRM]http://www.classicrockmagazine.com/page/classicrock?entry=the_wildest_guitar_heroes

    Spike says Ah, to travel back in time to those wondrous years of......second hand smoke. Maybe a cigarette ad would be more appropriate.

  5. Anonymous says “devastating technique” and “redefined the term ‘guitar hero’”.that's funny, cuz last time i checked hendrix was the first "guitar hero" yeah, i think hendrix is way overrated, he's also an incendiary guitar player who shouldn't be underestimated. i would absolutely get lost in his solos if people didn't say he was the best... ... it is purported that hendrix' favorite guitarist was neil young - which puts a crimp in rock history... neil is an anti-rock hero, whic his funny. fuck all those people, i would take captain beefheart's guitarist, or maybe loren mazzacane connors. the best? the guy Rawkkiddo posted
