I listened and practiced this every night for the last few weeks. I think John Mayer said it best "Who I am as a guitarist is defined by my failure to become Jimi Hendrix". That flow state and oneness when things become second nature and effortless as encapsulated in the performance above-- a total surrender to the music. Listening to Voodoo Child in my cousin's car all those years ago was a major reason why I picked up the guitar. I decided to check out this bio, skimmed through a bit as I had second thoughts about demystifying the man behind the guitar to preserve the mythologies i have in my head about him, but it gave me a chance to dive back into the music which was really fun. RIP to the legend.
