I first saw him open for Pearl Jam in North Carolina about same time. Maybe 1996 or 97. Like you said. Life changing. When he did excuse me mr. and on down. Then another lonely day. I love bass player also
If all Music of dead Composers and Musicians wasn't get played again life, we just could listen to Compact Disc or Vinyl of what had happened before. To me this sounds good.
@nvsd270 Voodoo Chile and Voodoo Child are two complety different songs. Voodoo Chile is a 15min during blues song, where as Voodoo Child(using the wah wah) is the song that Ben Harper and SRV covered. They both appeared on Electric Ladyland in 1968
stevie wrote the original, note jimi hendrix's version is called Voodoo Child (slight return) where as stevie ray's is called Voodoo Chile, also dated earlier than jimi's recording
When you guys get up and play it in front of 30000 people, you can dedicate it to whomever you want. Who wrote the song has nothing to do with it at all, only who influenced him to play it, or maybe to play guitar for that matter. It's a personal thing, so don't judge. Word.
Ben Harper is doing this complete justice. Of course he knows Jimi wrote it. 12 year olds in China know that. I dig the fact that he got the vibe right. Thanks Ben. Jimi is diggin it.
I agree with you on the fact that Jimi and SRV are untouchable when it comes to blues/rock, but I really don't think it's easier to play voodoo chile on slide, you have to be honest and admit Ben's cover is really incredible^^
Closest thing to Hendrix our lifetime will ever fucking know.
Holy shit, this is an army! Ben Harper is the most versatile, dynamic and plural musician of this generation.
+cronologicainfo Yes man you're right, he does everything and he does it well !
I'll NEVER forget seeing Ben perform this song live in 98. Truly life changing...

Voodoo Chile and Kashmir.....Pure Goodness!!!!!!
the part where it goes into Kashmir is pretty sweet too this guy is just plain amazing
Harper playng like Hendrix and finish with Zeppelin - Kashmere. Nice!!!
His conviction is unmatchable..
hes a sick lapsteel guitar player with alot of feeling, this is the real deal!
First saw Ben at Horde about 1995 or so. He's an absolute fav of mine since that day. He like to just jam out on stage and it's great to listen to.
ben is the shit. he does for the music not the fame.
The pure awesomness is the one who created the song ! shame on you to compare him with any other musicien, he was from an other planet. RIP JIMI.
My heart is always with "Ben Harper and The Innocent Criminals", I never get sick of nothing in this world" This is my medicine, HARD 💗
When Ben cover the classics is bigger than the biggest!!!!!!
This never gets old.
This is soo good... Man he can play slide, and props to for respecting Stevie Ray. Harper shreds.!!
kashmir riff during the middle of the song is sick

To me this sounds good.
semplicemente impressionante!!!!!!!!
A little Kashmir in there too by Led Zep is what I hear also
This is a really sick jam! Just got into Ben Harper, didn't know he did this stuff!
His slide work is pretty badass!
DDDDDDDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this guys got some MAD skills! frickin amazing!
First I heard this song. Like how he gave it a bit of a 90s feel while keeping the root of the song.
That's what music needs to come back too hell yes
Holy shit. 11 out of 10 right there.
11 people didn't like that he took up their sweet time. don't worry he'll give it right back, one of these days.
Ben is da Man!
God....what a song, what an artist....
As if his fabulous voice isn't enough! Thank you!
I could def. jam out to this....
Saw him Live in Ann Arbor at Hill Auditorium! Great show!
Feel the strength pouring through that slide... raw. Ben's at the top of his game when hes plugged in and seated. Thank.s for the vid. |,,/
Excellent video. Thanks for posting this.
Simplemente fantástico ❤

@janiee32 Jimi wrote this song. Though it has evolved from previous blues son "Catfish Blues", it's jimi's.
RIP Jimi, RIP SRV!

He has no pick. he play with just the fingers. amazing
@MrRsan1010 Wow man is this all you have to say after watching such a great talent?
total toll

Agreed. A major oversight, IMHO.
I can dig it!
Mad slide guitar gives an authentic Hendrix sound...but Hendrix did it without the aid of slide, wow
Guitar and guitarist!
2020
Yes Jimmy wrote this but if you have ever heard S.R.V. you would understand why Ben dedicated it to him. RIP Jimmy and Stevie Ray.
Nice!
Nice 1 Maan :)

Jimi and SRV would love it!
