As a lot of my fellow college kids would say, "That was wicked hot."

Kind of gives me hope that I can get that good if I keep playing, and reminds me that not all covers have to be EXACTLY like the original to be good. In this case, though, straying a little bit for originality did help a lot. :)

Henry Garza, Saul Hudson, and Darrell Abbott could not be here tonight, but they all had sex and are proud to announce the birth of their two-headed baby, Rodya S. Thompson.

First of all, I absolutely love this song done by Hendrix. Second, I love this done by you. LOL! I was listening to this when my dad walked in and he didnt know it was someone else playing!! That's how good it sounds! When someone thinks its the real artist and its not, thats when u know ur uber good. Great work.

What the f**k?

Are you a professional? That was INCREDIBLE. I mean I have heard some stuff that strives to sound like this. That is so000000000000000000 good. You had great rythm at the begining with the Wah. Really. Keep it up.

Amen. If the keyboards werent in there I'd swear that was the Experience playing live! Cant wait till you record it with the strat, then itll sound even more like it!

Stairway to Freebird!

Hey Big Al, how much did the 69 strat cost you? My friends in the market for one and he may get a Fender Relic to save money.

Al

This is terrific and you should reward yourself with at least another six beers for getting it that good.

I am really impressed....fantastic !

Keep it up.

yeah man, It was very nice indeed. I wish I could dish out something like that. Every time I play it I get criticized for Voodoo Child sounding like the intro from Shaft.

the secret to the intro is that you should have it on a clean setting! and keep it nice and slow.

although that's not true when hendrix did it live. :)

Still sounds great Big Al,
I did download it onto my old pc but my "philastine" children who now have it, cleared it out of the pc. Guess there's no educating some people!

Be excellent to each other & party on dudes!
