your favorite Hendrix song?
 
Mine is "Jam Back at the House" live at Woodstock (on side one of Woodstock II).

From about 2/3 through, it's like Jimi is playing two lead guitars, both of them wailing and screaming.

It seems totally impossible.

Tough choice to make but I do like All Along the Watchtower

911dean 11-19-2015 02:21 PM

For me it's The Wind Cries Mary.

"Like a rolling stone" from the Monterey Pop Festival...

Like flatbutt, I like his take on "All Along the Watchtower."

Me three. I remember when it first hit the air I wanted to go buy the album. I was not disappointed. I still have it.

honorable mention for Hey Joe, another honorable mention for everything else

Rick V 11-19-2015 03:28 PM

Yes, that one

Rapewta 11-19-2015 03:28 PM

In Feb. 1968, he played in the Men's Gym at Sacramento State University.
I was there. A senior in high school.
No bigge but today as a player in a classic rock & roll band, we play his stuff.

My personal favorite wasn't penned by him but we (the band) go right into it after Purple Haze...

"Hey Joe."

I love the chromatic walk-up at the end of the slow tune. The guitar player and I hit it
perfect.
That is my all time favorite.
Now to be honest.. after Axis: Bold as Love...
couldn't take any of his "ran out of gas/ideas" crap.

RIP

Castles Made of Sand - hands down.

wdfifteen 11-19-2015 04:41 PM

How do you chose? I'll throw out "Angel" just because it hasn't been mentioned, but every song mentioned could be a favorite, depending on my mood.

targa911S 11-19-2015 04:43 PM

you got me floating or spanish castle magic.

wdfifteen 11-19-2015 04:47 PM

I've listened to Anjelique Kidjo's version of Voodoo Chile and tried to imagine what she and Jimi could have done together with it. It would be amazing.

herr_oberst 11-19-2015 04:47 PM

Red House or 51st Anniversary

Hard to choose.

stomachmonkey 11-19-2015 04:53 PM

I prefer Band of Gypsies to Experience.

Experience always felt sloppy, was not a fan of Mitch's drumming.
