Then you don't care for one of the best and most innovative guitarrists ever. Shame.

When he wasn't doing his silly pyromania, he was amazing.
He could have easily performed in a fusion band. Seriously. I realise he was self-taught and unorthodox but he actually could play in a sensitive way too. He wasn't always over-the-top.

Also, the best Hendrix I've ever heard is his live impromptu performances at the Café Au Go-Go with the likes of B.B. King, Elvin Bishop, Al Kooper and Paul Butterfield.
Mmmm.

Oh yes, the Electric Ladyland version is excellent. However, check out the live versions.
Two albums I recommend:

This includes the aforementioned Electric Church Red House and even an awesome acoustic guitar version of Hear My Train A Comin'.

I thought that "Blues" was just yet another compilation with his "hits". And i've never seen the second one. I will get my hands on: - Are you Experienced?
- Electric Ladyland (only have it as .mp3
) - Band of Gypsys
- First Rays of the New Rising Sun
- Alot of live recordings
Shame i havn't gotten his albums yet, since i've been a fan for like 4-5 years!

It depends what's on offer. It's usually Pepsi for me (as I prefer it) but sometimes it's Coca Cola Coke Tm.

No, if I drink anything except cola (which, of course, is nothing other than Pepsi)>

Oh, that's good then. I don't drink enough tea but I had a cup just now. I do also like Coffee now (well, Cappuccinos anyhow) but I also prefer a cup of tea.
I'm like Rico though in that I abuse Cola far too much.

Bump.
| I rarely drink cola or any sort of soft drink. Just now I had a couple of glasses of diet Mountain Dew with my lunch, but that's because I'm going out in a bit. Otherwise I'd have been drinking beer.
