    I think the really good thing about Hendrix songs is that there's no hard and fast rule. You just have to feel the music. You gave me a really good starting point though.

    • @tradeka4206
      @tradeka4206 7 лет назад +1

      Yeah you're right. When I play this song I just follow the basic structure and otherwise just kinda let go. That's how he played it and why every different recording and live show sounds different

    • @charlesmatthias9459
      @charlesmatthias9459 6 лет назад

    Can't wait for the Classic Rock Solos series! I've learned guitar with your videos, specially strumming, which I found really hard to learn. Speed and soloing is my last step towards becoming a basic guitarist. If you could, please start with Eric Clapton's "Layla". Thanks a lot for your work!

    Hey Justin. I've been following along with a couple of your posts, and I just wanted say that I really appreciate your teaching style and attention to detail. I put the guitar down for a while, but now I'm rockin' out to some Purple Haze, Nothing Else Matters, and Sam Smith. Thanks for making it fun again. Cheers!

    A million views. Yeah. You're not alone in liking this tune. I'm a keyboard player, and this is the tune that made me want to learn guitar, but it took me 50 years to actually pick up the guitar and learn it. I never imagined that I would EVER be able to play this, but now that I'm studying, I know that I will be able. I just have to practice. It's very exciting. It's quite the opposite of when I was first learning piano, etc. and practice was a daily drudgery. Practice on the guitar these days is the highlight of my day. I can't wait to get all the other garbage of the day out of the way so I can sit down and practice guitar.

    When you teach I noticed that I can hear all the strings and notes clearly thats your high level of skill producing great tone. That's what motivates me if I hear the tone of each string and notes you play makes it better for me to learn the song..thank you..Roland J Gutierrez from Magdalena New Mexico usa.

  • @mojoefelix
    @mojoefelix 8 лет назад +1

    Fabulous playing and lesson. Just one point. This song is famous for it's tritone intro so we got to get low E going along with those Bb octaves - I play it in first position as it is easy to two Es and 2 Bbs to really get the "devils interval" going! Of course the bass player can play the low E, but most of us learning this and fiddling around with at home don't have a bass player. Love your lessons Justin!

    Great job on the lesson. As you said many people talked about the sound. Hendrix used a strat as we all saw him destroy many. If you use fuzz or overdrive, it will be fine. Remember, Hendrix played this song many times and probably tried lots of different types of distortion. During the solo, most people agree that he used an Octavia pedal to get those great high pitch harmonics. You are a very good teacher and made this easier to understand than previous instructors. You have it on target so it sounds like Purple Haze now when I play it. heh. Great job. oh, one thing that may help many beginners. The gliss' (Slides) were actually played as an overdub on the studio track. I would advise beginners or anyone for that matter to play it that way to get the timing and order of the song before putting in the gliss' but to each his own

    A very useful lesson. Every note and nuance explained. Surprised that you are not allowed to post TABS as all the other tutors seem to do so. However I've created my own TAB - only possible because you've described exactly the location of every note and it's taught me a lot more than using TABS created by someone else. I've got several recordings of Purple Haze and he plays it differently on every occasion so I'm not worried if I don't play it exactly the same as the single released, I think in 1967. Thank you for all your efforts. I'm also learning Manic Depression (your tutorial) but that's another story.
