Yeah, I say so.

I play guitar.

I have some idea of what it takes to put on the performance he did.

Cheers, ‘Pod

LOL!!

Hendryx was over rated, as a lot of the folks at Woodstock were, frankly. I mean he was good - as a producer even, I believe “All Along The Watchtower” was a killer arrangement of an obscure Dylan tune. It is an all time great, for that alone. He was also technically very astute and creative and made novel use of lots of guitar effects.

I never saw Hendryx, but I’ve seen Buddy Guy up close, and he never wore any feather boas, got kicked out of the Army, nor overdosed himself to death, and I think he was better, and he wasn’t even in his natural prime. That guy can shred.
