Im suprised So many people disagree that Hendrix Is overrated. I thought it was common knowledge. You thought? You nailed it there, you _assume_ and you _guess_ and that's why things come out all wrong. I cant persuade you, im just stating the facts. Incorrect facts, but you don't seem to care. NO way did he Invent anything new that BB king or other great blues hadnt already done! So you don't think Jimi Hendrix came with something new and different that had a great impact but just same ol same ol? Ignorant! So BB King did it before? What did he do exactly? And is he also overrated since others played blues before him? he was an innovater, a copier and evolver but not an innovater. Now that doesn't make sence at all... as usual. (and Clapton DID invent proper distortion. Link Wray had simple fuzz from unwoven cabels but not an overdriven amp! get your facts straight MickeM) Well isn't that something, Aryo got a lexicon. So you can look up distortion and perhaps return here with the definition. When you were proven wrong all of a sudden it has to be "proper distortion", laughable. So tell me, in what way did Clapton invent distortion and define "proper distortion"! And in what way does that make the facts I present incorrect? You said "distortion", nothing else such as "proper distortion" or averdriven amp, not even overdriven tube amp. Perhaps you should READ what facts you have stated before you jump the gun and claim I have to get MY facts straight. I can only comment on what you write, not what you were supposed to write. distortion (NOT invented by him! But by clapton a couple of years before!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!in the "beano" album) Again, that was in the med 60's. So Burlison's and Burnett's distortion (which came in the late 50's) doesn't count even though it was distortion? Aaaahh.. it had to be "proper"... So you count their sound as clean then? -------------------- My bands homepage

I've just started learning HEY JOE from Hendrix.
Try playing some of his songs and you might change your mine to Jimi. |

Ahhh yes.....Burlison's and Burnett's distortion, i know MikeM would have raised the issue of them Being the first to use distortion and NOt Clapton. Thank you! If you mean the distortion that we all know and love today, that was first utilised by Clapton. Utilised that's something completely different from what you said before (Quote "distortion (NOT invented by him! But by clapton") I don't know for a fact if he was the first to use it or not, now talking about distortion from an overdriven tube amp. If you have an article about if please post, if not I will just take your word for it. Cheers! -------------------- My bands homepage
