Make up Blog #3

 After listening to Jimi Hendrix in class, i really like him. His talent with an electric guitar is just unreal, plus the fact that he was self taught. I had heard some of his songs before on the radio, and my dad likes him, so it wasn't the first time that i had been exposed to him. It was really cool to learn some interesting facts about him, like that he was left handed. I remember hearing a kid say that he had no idea that Jimi Hendrix was black, and that made me laugh pretty hard. To me, and i feel like many other people would agree, Jimi Hendrick is a legend and one of the greatest musicians to ever live, not to mention an awesome song writer. Jimi did so many things with the electric guitar that no one had ever done before. He was for sure one of the biggest influences of the 20th century.


I absouletly love the introduction to this song Foxy Lady. It just makes me feel like damn this is going to be one sick ass guitar song, and sure enough that is what it is.

The song below is one of Jimi Hendrix's most famous songs Purple Hayes:
