Here's another one - Jimmy Hendricks was the best guitarist ever.

Most don't agree, but I've always thought Linsey Buckingham was way the heck up there on that list...

Now you had to go and do that.

I was just enjoying Jimi: The BBC Sessions today. Damn that is good stuff.

out of curiousity, who is your pick?

I always found Hendrix to be highly overrated, as well. I could name several guitarists who could mop the floor with him (Frank Marino, Gary Moore, Eric Johnson, Stevie Ray Vaughn at his peak, etc.)....but I think what finally turned me around was "Band of Gypsies", still one of the best live albums ever released. Yeah, I know, it's an OLD album now.......but you listen to that boy's chops on that disc, and it just floors you.

Any of us who have been slinging an electric six strng for years that listens to his work on that album is compelled to say "OOOOOOHHHHH........ok ok...........I see it now. Damn!!!"

Jimmy Hendricks was the best guitarist ever.

For a particular style and time, he was.

Hendrix's rendition of "Hear My Train A Coming" from the Rainbow Bridge album remains the hottest licks ever played on a guitar!
