It’s been nearly 50 years since the passing of Jimi Hendrix, and the musical impact that he left is still making a huge impact. God bless your soul Jimi Hendrix. You’ll never be forgotten.
Truth brother
Nice playing Greg.
Rock on Jimi. RIP Brother.
Jimi Hendrix was a musical genius and a brilliant guitarist.
agree
Hendrix Stratocaster fan I have to agree
James Marshall Hendrix!
@@mandrelltwitty1489, Hendrix is often connected with his Strat. He loved his Gibsons too. He often played Flying V's and SG's too but few people mention it.
Definitely.
God bless your soul Jimi Hendrix. It's been nearly 50 years since you left us, but your music is still amazing, and will always be appreciated.
Nice commentary Greg. I think that Jimi would have really liked it. Nice playing, and that Strat is gorgeous as well.
Hendrix is in every note I play and every note I ever will.
Nice video Greg. I think Jimmy would have liked it.
Great work as always Greg. I wish Jimi was still alive so that you could jam with him. That would have been epic.
A five-year career that formally started at the age of 22. Five years, and he changed music forever. No further explanation required. 'Fly on, Little Wing'.
Adam Lee say no more, you nailed it!
As true as it can ever be.
Hell Yaaaaaa
I never realized how sloppy Axis: Bold as Love and Electric Ladyland, were. Yeah, right, lol!
@@drivinsouth651 Electric Ladyland is sloppy as hell and mixed like ass, but Axis is great. The first two albums are above reproach.
God bless your soul Jimi Hendrix. It's been nearly 50 years since you left us, and the huge impact you made in music is still being felt.
Jimi Hendrix is still number one .
His performance of Machine Gun at the Filmore East on New Year's Eve 1969 says it all. He was simply extraordinary.
The bible of electric guitar playing... Joe Satriani quote....
"You gotta remember the (guitar) world before Jimi Hendrix (and what guitar was used for)...before Jimi existed, and then what it was afterward. And he was THE GUY OK! I'm just gonna say it." Truer words were never spoken!
Thanks to Greg for explaining what Hendrix did to the art of playing electric guitar, its about continuous pushing the boundaries and not following trends.
@@davidallen346 Now, all we need to boost our creativity is some Stan Owsley D-Lysergic Acid Diethylamide # 25! Does anyone know where to find that stuff, nowadays? My pharmacist was very annoyed when I asked him for it.
_""You gotta remember the (guitar) world before Jimi Hendrix...and then what it was afterward. "_
The same could be said about Eddie Van Halen and the generation of guitarists he influenced. Look at all the hair bands of the 1980s. Now take away Eddie's impact and influence. Case closed.
@@electrix6751 😭💀🤣 EVH ia probably one of the most overrated guitarist of all time besides SrV and slash. Mind u all those guys came way way after HENDRIX... without Hendrix we probably would even have 90% of guitarist today. Jimi did more things with the guitar I'm a song then most players have done their entire career. SRV was only a blues player, EVH was only a shredder and slash is a joke lol. Don't ever compare Hendrix with basic overrated guitarist and I like SRV but he doesnt even hold a candle to Hendrix hell he damn near stole Hendrix whole style. If u don't like Hendrix that's fine but don't be foolish talking about EVH lol. Smh that's just dumb.
It's always nice to see one guitar legend, paying tribute to another guitar legend.
I feel like a lot of people (now anyway) only look to his stage presence and live performances, they never actually sit down and take the time to really listen to him. His 3 albums on headphones are sonic journeys, his mastery and command of sound was something truly extraordinary. There was way more to Jimi than crazy feedback. A lot of people now write the Beatles off too, it’s so stupid lol. Thank god for Greg Koch, a national treasure for sure.
Greg, I only have one word for you….AMEN!!!
Greg Koch is awesome. Amazing player and an incredible personality. The complete entertainer. Why he isn't a household name is a shame.
XLBiker13 I just discovered Greg Koch a few weeks ago. He was in a vid jamming with JD Simo. Wow, the 2 of them jamming was just awesome!
After that, I realized I was missing out being 41 and having never listened to Greg Koch.
Greg, KILLER pickin'! I lived above the Whiskey on Sunset Blvd from 1964 when it first opened up till around 1975 or so, and got to see and meet all the greats of Rock. I met Jimi in person around July 2nd, 1967 when he first played there. Arthur Lee was the guitar man in L.A. until Hendrix came to town. After Hendrix left, all over Hollywood and Beverly Hills you could see garbage dumpsters full of guitars that had been thrown away, and for about a year you couldn't find a guitar player in the city with enough nerve to get on a stage and play one. He sobered up the entire music scene in L.A. and caused musicians, especially guitarists, to do some serious reflection and consideration of looking at another career. It quickly came to a point in Hollywood where a guy couldn't even get a girlfriend unless he looked and acted like Hendrix, and every young dude under eleven feet tall began wearing a big curly perm with a headband and eating all the acid he could see. Within a year everyone who had finally got up enough nerve to pick a guitar up again began trying to sound like Hendrix. He came through Hollywood like a hurricane and in just one night not only did he just tear all the guitar players and songwriters a new one, but he also changed the way we all dressed, acted, and what we talked about, and he also put an end to the boasting of the many vain guitar players who thought they could play. They were ashamed to even look their girlfriends and the women who had witnessed Hendrix play, in the eye. Being from Laguna Beach I got to see him play on Maui in 1970. Later the concert was called Rainbow Bridge and was filmed, paid for and produced by my bros from Laguna. Anyone who ever saw him in concert even when he was high and fkn up, always left feeling like they'd had a religious experience. To say he was the man is indisputable truth and lies beyond the realm of argumentation and debate. No one's ever going to be able to do what he did to guitar, culture, songwriting, music and the elevation of collective global consciousness in general. He was from another time, space and dimension, and placed here for a specific purpose. SMIB
Wtf js this nonsense lmao
Well spoken. Greg hits so to the point on Hendrix. That's so true on how influential Jimi was to the guitarist after him. And please remember that Jimi died at so young age. What would have he accomplished, if let to live a bit older..
The fact that his music still inspires people to this day speaks for itself. Also, anyone who says "Hendrix really isn't that great..." 10 times out of 10 hasn't accomplished half the things of what Jimi has done for the guitar, let alone music.
Zuzu no.....they haven’t accomplished one iota of one percent of what Jimi did is probably a lot more accurate! Lol
well i guess thats a no brainer because... literally nobody else has. So in a way their accomplishments don't really affect their value of opinion and theirs are about as valuable as yours as they have accomplished the same amount as every other guitarist.
Jimi was the man. He had no boundaries. His imagination was limitless. He seemed to be trying to bust out of his own skin, to reach ever new heights. To free himself of physical limitations.
He is still mesmerizing to watch. A true, one of a kind, in a world overcrowded by guitar players. He changed my outlook on what playing guitar was all about. Woke me from a slumber.. Jimi Hendrix. Says it all.
Love it, excellent job Greg. Hendrix unleashed the beast in electric guitar.
Revolutionary is right! I heard him for the first time 1967 in 7th grade and no one was playing like that! An army brat classmate turned me on to Jimi and we talked Jimi for 4 mos. untill his father had a transfer for military duties so he had to move away.
Today's guitarists are spoiled...the road is paved for them who don't realize how many years went by before anybody could play like Jimi (Ulrich Roth Scorpions)and no one writes like him! Steve Vai made a statement in the 1980's how Jimi had an uncanny ability to write and play his songs and sing it out of rythme at the same time! I'm 67 yrs now and we all had to play by ear back then!
Peace be with you Greg!!!
I was fortunate to see him twice in Philadelphia. Jimi was a special person besides being a musician. He’s remained my favorite guitar player since then 🙏👌😊☮️
Go Greg - you are also releasing much guitar magic into the world...I think Jimi would be proud....
anybody who was there when Jimi burst onto the scene knows just how revolutionary his playing was-there are
so many stories of Pete Townsend ,Jeff Beck and Clapton being blown away by Hendrix when he came to England-he was
and still is one of greatest-really nice of Greg to take time out to give the man his due and show some of his playing style -nice job of explaining Jim's invaluable contribution to music
Learning Jimi Hendrix's music can gauge your musical maturity. Revisiting Castles every few years, I hear new (techniques, rhythms) that blow me away. You can hear 50s R&B to late 80's Metal in his writing. I believe a student of guitar in the next century will hear original ideas in Jimi's work. He had the coolest 'left' hand in the business, what rhythm for a young man.
I'm 21 years old, and I've been obsessed with learning every Jimi Hendrix trick in the book since I was 14 years old (I've been playing since I was 10).. I don't think that all the "kids these days" don't understand the greatness of Hendrix, most musicians I met when in music HS, even the metalheads, agreed that Hendrix was by far the best and that he helped shape almost every style of playing there is today in one way or the other.
But still, I agree that there's a lot of people my age not understanding the, at the time, avant-garde style of Hendrix and the way he influenced and rewrote music history and guitar playing.
He wasn't always precise, not always making sure to stay in tune etc, but the fact that he didn't and still manages to trump every single guitar player out there in terms of innovation just makes him even better.
*Bonus paragraph:* Check out the lead guitar on the song "Have you ever been (to Electric Ladyland)", the whammy bar at one point on that track is just amazingly casual and amazing sounding..
howaboutthatsuckah I'm 14 and have also been seriously been playing since I was 9/10 years old and Jimi has been in my life since the beginning due to my dad, it's great to see another person closer to my age that knows what real music is!
The Wind Cries Mary, If 6 was 9, In from the storm, hellloooo !? The list goes on and on.
To all the Jimi fans, I'm right there with you, obsessed since my teens and he died the year before I was born. I was only recently defending Jimi's memory when someone suggested Landau was better! Now, I wana be like Mike too, but it's like comparing fire and bbq!
I came of age in the 80's with the great EVH. He made me pick up guitar permenantly. After EVH evryone else began copying his stlye and it got very technical. Nothing wrong with taking it to the next level and becoming a better musician. Now, I can sit down and listen to a Hendrix album from start to end and be satisfied. But as great and technical as the new breed is, it's pretty hard to sit through some of those albums . Remember Shrapnel records in the 90's with all those instrumental albums? I don't hear or see anyone commenting on any greatness do you? It has to be musical and tastefull. And that's what Hendrix's legacy has left for us. Among others; Chuck Berry, Beatles, Stones, Yardbirds, Fleetwood Mac, Cream, Led Zeppelin, Allman Brothers, Sabbath, Deep Purple, Thin Lizzy, Van Halen, Brian Setzer, SRV, Gary Moore, EVH, Randy Rhoads, Vai, Malmsteem, etc. So much great music and so little time.
P.S. Greg you are in incredible guitarist. Thanks for your insight on Jimi.
I taught guitar at a local academy of music in the late 1960's and very early 70's. When a student wanted to
Learn 'rock music' I said "listen to and absorb Eric Clapton's lay lay album, 'Almon bros' live at The Filmore, and ANY Jimi Hendrix album. With Jimi's albums, if u haven't heard someone say (between lines), "ah the bar's closed" or " if my daddy can c me now" you haven't listened close enough -to his playing. I am still using his licks now and I am OLD!!- but still performing....
Jeezus Greg. You not only nailed exactly what I like about Jimi but you did it faster with almost as much soul. 😂
Perfect, Greg! Thanks for this. I was a junior in high school when I saw, and purchased, my first copy of "Are You Experienced" in Old Town, Chicago. It was the week Purple Haze was released as a single, I think. Boy are you right about the world of guitar before and after Jimi Hendrix!
I was a teenager, and deeply saddened when he died. Like Greg said, he was, and is, “The Man”. Sure, since his passing, I’ve become a man, and a musician. And, yes, and amen to what Greg is saying. I would just add that having a skilled guitar tech, and sound man working the board, at the volumes Jimi played at, did not always give you the sound you wanted, nor the ability to really hear yourself, and what being put out there. I’ve had my share of bootleg albums for years. Like Greg said, Jimi wasn’t around to say what passed, and what didn’t, but, I know that I sure do treasure them.And, lastly I would just add, to whoever his naysayers are, let’s see if people are still talking about about how great you were, and how many magazine covers you grace, 50+ years after you are gone?
I´m with you. I´m 61 and Hendrix was and is the men.
Carlos Casamayor im 31 and men is plural.
Carlos Casamayor Me too!
we are plural, too. awesome!
@@cypressdobro8759 this is the only thing in my life im lock-step with.& usually i dont follow the pattern.but i feel confident with being amongst like minds in this thread.sho yu rite.
For the doubters, listen to Electric Ladyland.
I concur 100 percent!
I have. Countless times. The more I listen to it, the more dated it sounds. That's a fact.
@@electrix6751 it sounds fresher everytime I listen to it.
A half a century old album, still fresh. Incredible
I grew up on the Grand Ole Opry. Then, KSHE-95 in St Louis one day in their infancy played a song by an unknown. The name of the song was Purple Haze. From that day forward Porter Wagner was no more! My life changed forever. The artist, James Marshall Hendrix. Thank you for once again highlighting Jimi's awesome influence on the world and you. No other artist has had that affect on me and unless something drastically changes never will. I listen to all sorts of music, but Hendrix was and will always remain my greatest influence. 42 years and still playing that horrible noise. Gotta love the folks that berate true talent. Makes me wonder what influences they have. Jam on o wondrous axeman. Later.
Hendrix was the most boldly inventive and originally creative electric rock guitar player ever .He was also the best all-rounder in terms of electric guitar playing , song writing ( + lyricist ) and showmanship , not to mention his ability to sing really well in a live situation + play the guitar + be the focal point on stage all at the same time .No one else has challenged ,let alone bettered Jimi Hendrix's position as the greatest ever .Hendrix saw no limits... a true artist / visionary.
TheHumbuckerboy burped: _"not to mention his ability to sing really well in a live situation"_
Sing really well? Jimi Hendrix did _not_ sing "really well." I've heard live (bootleg) recordings where his singing was horrible. Those times it wasn't [horrible] for sure his singing was not "really well." Jimmy James' vocals were not his strong point.That's a fact.
TheHumbuckerboy burped: _"Hendrix was the most boldly inventive and originally creative electric rock guitar player ever ."_
Eddie Van Halen isn't? Hmmm? Eddie was a true original and influenced a legion of guitar players too and what was stated by Greg [about Hendrix] could be stated about Eddie Van Halen as well: "You gotta remember the world before Eddie Van Halen...and then what it was afterwards." Just look at all the hair bands of the 1980s.
Humbuckerboy burped: _"Jimi Hendrix's position as the greatest ever ."_
The greatest showman ever. No argument there. Greatest ever guitar player? No such guitarist--both past and present--exists. That's a fact. Just a lot of really great guitarists.
@@electrix6751 you sound like a sore loser.
Thank you, Greg. You are right about Hendrix on all counts. He would never have
allowed this posthumous material to be released without his approval. He was, first
and last, an artist and a perfectionist who cared about how his music was presented.
He was the best. Only Jeff Beck can equal him as a player from that era, and today
also. Hendrix set the bar for performing, playing, and creating modern rock and roll.
Glad to hear someone acknowledge "fall off" licks. I recognized these things a long time ago. Never knew what to call them.
twinsmm1 I'll call'm "falling off, and then picking them right up"..cause that's what he did with every single one of them licks...They never ended out of place.. Somehow he would always "bend" them back to place...If you ever heard the expression "Bend it like Beckham" I think that could also be applied here.... ☺ Jimi knew exactly what he was doing on those...
To say he was always out of tune is just blasphemy...
yah...I always thought of em as roll off licks
John Mayer uses that alot
Yeah Stevie Ray Vaughan aswell. It sounds really juicy and tasty when done right!!
Clapton!
Just listening to Greg talk is a pleasure and that's before you add in his superlative dexterity and tone. Superb.
Jimi continues to inspire. He "spoke" with the guitar like nobody else, and that's what (guitar) music is about, period. Greg, thanks for taking the stand!
When i think Hendrix, Rhythm and melody comes to mind. Such a natural player!
Jimi H . One great thing he inspired me with was his fluid style. Liquid ! His riffs poured off his guitar like delicious fluid. Never stiff or stringent. Mixing rhythm with lead . I still enjoy listening to the Experienced , Electric Lady Land , Band of Gypsies live LP's Any slop that incurred was the lack of technolegy back in those days.Imagine what Jimi could do with modern knowledge of how to keep a guitar more in tune , Floyed Rose , Locking tuners etc. Jimi did sooo much with just a Strat, Marshall , Fuzz Face and a Rotovibe and a Wha pedal. Jimi was ahead of his time . and he gave me many hours of joy listening to his music when I was 13, 14, 15 years of age. it took all the pain away from being from a recently divorced mother & father who dumped me off to live with my grandmother. Good ole Maw , got me one of those big ass stereo consoles and let me listen to Jimi & Cream as loud as I wanted !
Yah I'm 66 years old today I started playing guitar at age 8 copy all of the great guitar player like Chuck berry the Beatles and stones then Jimi Hendrix experience total came out blew me away I know there are a lot of great players too many to list but every one copied Jimi he's music has stood the test of time one of the great ones a bad ass 4sho RIP .
Jimi has always been # 1 for this 59 year old. Still is.
Hi Greg. We don’t know each other but... this is the best thing on the internet right now. Thank you very much.
Thank you for the easiest and rather comprehensive summary of the Hendrix experience. Right to the point with the social context of how he is seen today - both the good and bad of the current releases and that which influenced him and what he influenced. I am 57 and I have listening to him since I was about 16. He was already gone when I really paid attention. He is the man and he is still the man. If Jeff Beck says so and so does Eric Clapton and others, well you would think they would know better than some of us. But I agree with you when it comes to who is or was the best. Its really about who is your favorite. With that said - like I said earlier - he is still the man. Great review!
This man is so on point! Jimi has to be the greatest ever...a true innovator and light years ahead of his time!! :D
At about 9 years old hearing Jimi Hendrix made me want to play guitar. At about 13 years old loving Jimi's music influenced me, I started playing guitar. Now as I sit here I'm a 60 year old guitarist who loves Jimi's music as much or more than I ever did. Jimi also influenced me to play mandolin,why? How? I don't know but Jimi's has been in my mandolin playing for about 46 years.
That was great. I'd watch Greg talking 5-10 minutes on his favorite guitarists any time.
Axis: Bold As Love completely changed my view on Jimi. I loved the stuff on Are You Experienced, but when I heard Axis, I realized how much of a genius Jimi was
+Seth Holtz and Electric Ladyland...........perfection.
+Seth Holtz Same here. I bought the album when it came out on vinyl.
+Seth Holtz Yeah, the songwriting on axis is great. (and superior over are you experienced) But the latter has that edgy, raw kinda vibe to it which I really love.
Seth Holtz
Let me c if I can find Jimi xpounding on it, himself. I LOVE when he sayz - YEA & IF 6 WUZ 9, MAN.
LOL!!! Jimi wuz a character. B back wit da clip.
They were all bold as love
Whew! Unleashin" the proud pate! Absolute majesté!
I’m really happy this video exists.
Fantastic video Greg…your an inspiration man
Rip ..to the best guitar 🎸 master the world has seen, Hendrix
Enough to say that when Hendrix hit London, Clapton, Page and Beck all went to see him and were blown away by what they saw and heard .. check out the interviews .. for me that tells you just how important and respected Hendrix is .. and can I just add .. Gregory Koch is the fret-tastic master of the guitaring interweb !
Thanks Greg. Couldn't have said it better myself. Most of this generation don't have a clue. Hendrix was, is an always will be the man.
You have an outstanding radio voice sir..kudos to you
Dude has AMAZING chops and a wit that won't quit... awesome!
pork chops?
There's a difference in 'playing' Hendrix and 'capturing' Hendrix... You capture Hendrix.
I could listen to you play all night. Very Impressed!
Jimi Hendrix revolutionized electric guitar.
He was the greatest
you nailed it. There's no contest for who's the best...but I am not sure how most guitar players couldn't appreciate Jimi's amazing vision and approach to guitar.
Nicely said Greg. God bless Jimi Hendrix. His music lives on.
Well said... Perfectionist, Jimi used to take 6 or 7 Wahs to a gig, try them all then use the best one! Only around for 4 years and then gone, some people are bigger than the music and Jimi was one of them. Jimi changed guitar playing forever.
started talking about Jimi and turned into a lesson! Thanks!
LOL Greg , every time you crack me up!!
its not how clean you can hit every note but is your soul in the notes you play....
So well said, thank you.
I was lucky enough to seem him live at the 5th Dimension in Ann Arbor, Michigan on the third weekend of August 1967. I was such a geeky kid from the suburbs that I thought his hair was on fire (the stage lighting and the fact that I had never seen an afro before). He opened with "Manic Depression" and it changed my life. I knew my Buddy Guy and Albert King licks, and here was a guy blending this with Edgar Varese and Louis & Bebe Barron! Later I found out that his favorite movie was Forbidden Planet (1956). Figures.
10 years of lessons in 8 minutes. Pleasure to listen to ya, Mr Koch
Yes. Axis Bold as Love. All Along the Watchtower. Voodoo Child Slight Return.
Nice playing Greg.
What can I say, Watching the guy for years, **Praise** Greg's observations and appraisals of the legends of the guitar fraternity are BANG ON!. Insights on artists are always in context to their era. His playing is superb.
Speaking as a humble guitar shop worker, he accurately distils what the top echelon of guitar greats are all about, for us mere mortals. I don't work for wildwood, however his inclusion in their youtube videos is simply gold.
super awesome and informative.
Love it cheers!
When Hendrix went to London .. Page, Beck, Clapton, May and the Beatles flocked to see him play .. they were in awe of him .. that tells you everything you need to know about where Hendrix sits in the pantheon of Guitarists
Townsend Too!!
Page never saw Hendrix perform.
Love Hendrix! Gotta be honest Greg your a master too! You both inspire my playing!
Gorgeous 🙏🏼 thank you, Koch
Wonderful!
There will never be another Jimi Hendrix.
Great job!
Thanks Greg. Amazing ! For me you are one of the finest guitarist in the world...
Hendrix is the Master.
thank you Greg and Wildwood!
Damn straight!
JH did things and created sounds no one thought possible at the time.
He influenced so many players.
Nice tribute Greg.
I am a HUGE Hendrix fan - I have something like 70 different bootleg LPs from back in the 80s. But Greg Koch is also unique, and is my current favorite guitarist BY FAR.
Thanks! Hendrix is like Baseball, immensely enjoyable on so many levels and always satisfying. I agree, the live Hendrix (saw him 3 times) and the recordings he released leave an amazing heritage. A game changer to be sure. Thanks again!!
I’ll bet Jimi would have loved to listen to Greg Koch play. No doubt about it.
Thanks for telling it as it is brother. Peace
Back when 'Are You Experienced' came out in '67, I managed to come across it in the basement, of all places, in a Newberry's department store. (Sam Goody's was goin' "wha???") I was 16 yrs old, and I had been playing guitar at that point for a couple of years, inc some early-on cover bands. And I can still-quite distinctly-recall the *EXACT* moment when I was listening to it in our living room (on the big "stereo"-and I can still picture that room at that moment, the lighting, everything), and I thought these exact words: THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING.
And I still stand by that personal revelation. Understandably, it's SO hard for the "younger folk" to realize what the musical climate and the state of guitar playing was back in those days. Yes, Cream was out, and I loved them, other bands, too... but Jimi was just something entirely different. No, I'm not a "Jimi worshipper" (actually I only play a couple of his songs), but still, Hendix' significance at that point in time was immense. IMO.
BRAVO Greg great words and thoughts
Great video!! Was very enjoyable to hear someone talk about all the awesomeness that is Jimi. I haven't heard anyone sum up Hendrix so well. Thanks
Thank you Sir Greg. You nailed it. 👍
Although he passed at 27 years of age, his first three albums were written and composed when he was 24-25. YO. Think about that for a minute. I was 11 yo in 1967 and had a constant barrage of the JHE thanks to my older brother playing those albums non-stop, except of course when our parents were home
Seeing this for the first time.....but thanks for it, Greg. Right on!
Very well said, Mr. Koch.
Jimi was on The Dick Cavet show right before he died its such a beautiful interview watch it if you can find it it shows what a great guy he was..Greg you are really tearing it up here.You are my favorite player so effective. I have been playing nonstop since I found your channel. O
ne for the Algorithm man.Was that some "Think I better Wait till Tomorrow "mixed with Catfish Blues? He brought magic indeed good sir magic indeed.
Once again you nailed it with your interpretation.
Jimi was the man. 50 years later and we are still studying him. I don't see how people can deny how innovative he was. I was there back when and it was his music first and his act second.
right in the money! Great lesson!!
Love your reviews, integrity and common sense, a rarity now adays...... and your play'n, kudos.
he was just cool..thanks for the vid
