>>131749993buy an ad, tosin
>>131751963Maybe, but I think Rick James had more of an influence on that nasty nigga than hendrix
>>131749993him and Elias and 6ix9ine were /fa/ memes
>>131750204this is backwards
>>131749993tony macañpine?
>>131753602They were contemporaries and when Prince opened for him, Rick was so mad he was getting more popular and a better reception so he stole his synths and used Princes presets on Street Songs (his most successful album) so they sound similar because Rick literally ripped him off and seethed about that tour for the rest of his life and never recovered.

>>131749993Hendrix grew up poor and never took music lessons. He was drafted into the Army and forced to become a soldier. He got out of the Army and blew his tiny severance pay in 1 night drinking, and took gigs to get by. Now Tosin:Wealthy parents Given music lessons from an early ageTechnically gifted yet boring and uninspiring Small fanbase of other rich nerdsHendrix will live on forever as a cultural icon that pushed the boundaries of guitar playing and opened the way for guitar to lead in rock music

>>131770592Abasi grew up to poor Nigerian immigrant parents and only attended Musicians Institute for a 1 year crash course to get some basic theory down.He's basically completely self-taught.I agree that the robotic Thumpy Thumpy stuff that he loves to do is soulless sounding, but I guess that's the point since it's all about technique, but many of his solos are really damn great and soulful. Imo he excels in both areas. Compared to the Instagram shredders he sounds way more human yet he can still outshred most of them.
>>131749993Are his guitars any good? Local store has a used six string, but their boomer clientele hates the way it looks so its on a steep markdown. Trying to replace a squire and it looks good for $1,600.

There probably are more skilled guitarists than Hendrix now, especially in genres like tech-death. However, I don't think any of them had the genius Hendrix did. He created a new musical language for guitar that's still being used today, and pretty much all heavy metal owes its existence to Hendrix. Literally - Hendrix is the defining acid rock musician, but the entire "heavy psych" genre was basically bands that were less skilled than Hendrix, but could adopt his techniques, like Blue Cheer, Sir Lord Baltimore, and Captain Beyond. Heavy Psych is the immediate precedent to early heavy metal. I think people lose sight of how hard it is to come up with new, innovative things like Hendrix. There's a reason he was the first one to do a lot of what he did. Now we take it all for granted, but IMO no Hendrix, no Sabbath.
>>131922229yes now do the math and get to Cream
>>131922229hendrix didnt innovate anything and did not create a new language. repeating jew buzzwords doesn't make it true.
>>131922229What specifically did he innovate and was the first to do? Be specific.
>>131847907it's a shame he's known for his later elevator style jazz, although Mr.Magic is a great tune anyway.
>>131901963very underrated. the solo on the extended "That Lady" is bananas
>>131923364they can never answer this. they push him being an "innovator" to justify calling a black man the best at something because his actual playing itself isn't that remarkable. dei guitarist.
>>131922191I read that Montgomery learned to play every Django song he could get note-for-note, which seems evident in his playing. it's nice to actually see his fingers flying around

>>131862000there is a certain type of virtuosity where you can be technical and speak to the average listener at the same time. I guess what I'm trying to put forward (I'm not the original poster you were replying to) is that you can be technical and express that technicality subtly to people who are not exposed to this style of play. it helps those "sycophants" to reach out and analyze what they listen to and hopefully arrive at a point where this kind of music allows for more exploration.

What does "best guitarist" mean? Better at playing something complex? Or better at making something someone in particular, or people generally, enjoy?
>>131862000>I don't understand why that's a desirable thing.What's desirable about making art that very few enjoy?You could very easily have a philosophy that art which more people enjoy is more desirable to make without ever considering the compensation one gets for accomplishing that.
