Why is Jimi Hendrix always considered the best guitarist ever?

submitted by TheOriginal1Icemonkey to whatever 1 yearJun 2, 2024 01:06:03 ago (+8/-3)     (whatever)

Sure, he had a few good hooks, like in Foxy Lady, and a couple of tunes he covered, but really? The best?
Even considering the era and the technology, I can think of ten guitarists that smoke him, given everything equal.
For one, using no effects or pedals, Angus Young.
The following may use effects or pedals and are not presented in any particular order:

Stevie Ray Vaughan
Eric Clapton
Jimmy Page
Slash
Billie Gibbons
Dave Murray
Glenn Tipton
Steve Gaines
Frank Zappa

Is it just nigger worship?

He's not even the best nigger guitarist.
George Benson
Prince
Stanley Jordan
All have him beat.

Jimi is worshipped because he is partly jewish and thereby heavily promoted in the jew-controlled musicindustry. Same as Bob Marley, both children of jewish male paternity.

Mainly because at the time, nobody was doing what he did. The live Band of Gypsies showcases his stuff best, esp 'Machine Gun'.

Electric Lady Land . Says it all. He liked Dick Dale, another lefty. Dick and Jim didn't get along with the management kikers.Dick got away. Jimi didn't make it

He said Billy Gibbons was the best, in 1969

Back in the '60's some noted music person said that there were probably 500 guitarists in Nashville who were better than Hendrix.

The best guitarist EVER is Andrés Segovia.

Your list doesn’t even come close.

Because he's black.

I think his sound is shit imo I don't like it.

I don't think anyone ever says he's the best ever. But he was one of the best.

Boomers are nigger lovers and Rolling Stone has been pushing this bullshit since they first started spreading herpes at the Berkeley orgies.

In terms of innovation you can add Eddie Van Halen to op's list. He's at least as good as Hendrix, I think better.

If you want to go for speed- Steve Vai, Devin Townsend, John 5 even Dave Mustaine smokes.

It's all nigger worship

He's a bad man, for sure. A natural gift for melody, and can shred if the song calls for it. Especially love his earlier work.

infinite improvisation.

The term is called 'noodling' and it's not very impressive. Millions of guitarists do it every day to the thousands of backing tracks available online. There is nothing inherently great about his music or any other guitarist, the greats can all easily play each others shit and even give it their own unique flair. The only real gift some guitarists have, besides luck, is having great showmanship. Hendrix had showmanship, he could sing and the kikes promoted the hell out of him because finding a nigger with any talent is like finding a selfless jew.

If you think Hendrix is some sort of great, here's 30 or 40 guitarists you've never heard of doing absolutely amazing shit, https://youtu.be/r6YvB0NblPw
