Hi Emily, great to see you on the blog! I'm glad you like Jimi Hendrix so far. He is a legend . . . definitely a good musician to become familiar with.
the following website is a live pefomance of All Along The Watch tower. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBaP_sNz-1E copy and paste this on to your browser and click enter. Take a look at his afro and give me feedback on his song. Just telling you if your volume is all the way up its wicked loud.
A little bite more jimi hendricks info. "His first gig was with an unnamed band in the basement of a synagogue. After too much wild playing and showing off, he was fired between sets. The first formal band he played in was The Velvetones who performed regularly at the Yesler Terrace Neighborhood House without pay. His flashy style and left-handed playing of a right-handed guitar already made him a standout. He later joined the Rocking Kings who played professionally at such venues as the Birdland. When his guitar was stolen (after he left it backstage overnight), Al bought him a white Silvertone Danelectro which he painted red and emblazoned with the words "Betty Jean" (Morgan), the name of his high school girlfriend."-from wikipedia.
Hendrix completed junior high at Washington Junior High School with little trouble but didn't graduate from Garfield High School, although he would later be awarded an honorary diploma, and in the 1990s, a bust of Hendrix was placed in the school library. After he became famous in the late 1960s, Hendrix told reporters that he had been expelled from Garfield by racist faculty for holding hands with a white girlfriend in study hall. However, Principal Frank Hanawalt says that it was simply due to poor grades and attendance problems

Hi Emily, First, Jimi Hendrix is spelled with an "x" not a "cks". Second, I watched the video and I liked it, but I have 2 questions. Why does he play his guitar upside down, and what the heck were they saying at the beginning of the video???????????????????????????????????????:)
