Thoughts on Jimi Hendrix

In the hundreds of students I’ve taught over the years I’ve seen lots of requests for guitar players like Santana, David Gilmour, and Eric Clapton, yet oddly enough Jimi Hendrix is very rarely requested! If I had to take a guess I would think it's because people think he is out of their reach. There are some songs however, like "Wind Cries Mary", which make for a great study on rhythm chops, double stops and interesting harmonic choices that are simply unparalleled. Here is a cover of Paul demonstrating the song. Contact us for more info on lessons so we can dig into some stuff like this!
