Enjoyed it ... despite the junior high level guitar work. :-)
Thanks for posting.

Besides Hendrix, I think Dave Mason also did a great version of this song.

What does the dragon mean?

Since it mentions "Transylvania" I'll say it means "dragon".

Prince Vlad of Wallachi was nicknamed "Dracula" which means "son of the dragon"

Actually, what does the song mean -- I don't think anyone has figured it out!

This may help:

By the way, today is Jimi Hendrix’s 76th birthday.

Happy Birthday, Jimi.

That song derailed the reboot Battlestar Galactica series with weirdness

Jimi Hendrix: 101st Airborne (1961-1962). Met longtime bassist Billy Cox there too.

Dylan has given Hendrix credit for creating the definitive version of the song. Dylan pretty much uses Hendrix’s arrangement in his live performances, although the vocals aren’t close to the quality of what Hendrix did.

Some pretty harsh comments here, rude and unwarranted

The music and video were unique and fun to watch. I have a station with 300 subs. The effort in this video was a pretty time consuming endeavor no doubt.
