What Guitarists Remind You Of SRV Or Hendrix?


I never had the chance to see either live but I own many studio and bootleg recordings by both. I have had the pleasure of seeing a handful of players that reminded me of them, these include Chris Duarte, Mato Nanji of Indigenous, Bill Perry, and Kenny Wayne Sheperd. If you get a chance to see any of these guys you will not be disappointed.

Azjake, point taken! I never saw Hendrix live. But did you see Bill Nelson perform "Purple Haze" live, either?
not to digress too much but seeing Kronos Quartet do purple haze live laid out the meaning of psychodelic. Jimmy would have been proud.
I saw the Experience live at, I think, Masonic Auditorium in 1968. There was a problem with RI and Jimi's amps picked up a local AM radio news/talk show which then boomed across the hall. He looked confused and turned to fiddle with the amps and even wacked one a couple times with his guitar. We all thought it was part of the show.

Fast forward to about 5 years ago at a used record store in Ann Arbor, MI, and on the wall was a black and white photo of Jimi at Masonic and he was just starting to look over his shoulder at the stack of Marshalls as if to say, "What the f--k!". I almost had an acid flashback when seeing that picture!
richard lloyd (all)......larry coryell(the pre eleventh house stuff on vanguard) the real great escape is the most overlooked guitar record of the '70's.....
