Bubble Burst:Jimi Hendrix wasn't a one man band.

[SeveroDrgnfli]

He played with a bunch of funky ass white dudes. The best musician in his band was the drummer. Jimi Hendrix was in a band called The Jimi Hendrix Experience, yes the band was centered around him, but he wasn't a stand alone artist as people try to paint him.

I doubt most people who paint him as a solo artist could tell me which guitar is his simply by listening to JHE songs. What made Hendrix special was the whole package. His voice, his lyrics, and his whole band was fukking tight.

His most popular song according to Google is a Bob Dylan cover. It's time to grow up and face reality. England accepted Hendrix before America. He played with some English cats. He loved white people, played with white people, and covered their music.

One could ask why he didn't have a black band. But they won't. I love art in general and to appreciate it one needs to understand the time it was released in.

Bang!

Lol you don't read music threads about The Beatles on the coli then. People constantly claim Hendrix was better than The Beatles because he was black. I wanted to remind them he wasn't even the best musician in his band. I agree with you, lol and I did know that at 12.

@MansaMusa come on down.

Did you know: Bob Marley was in a group called Bob Marley and the Wailers? :slowpoke:

Whatever works for you. Thanks for proving my point with your shock by the statement I made.

White people already get recognition at whatever they do by default. Lets not add fuel to the already existent fire.
