Behind the Sound of Jimi Hendrix
Jimi Hendrix had a unique sound that took some getting used to in the United States. His edgy sound was a combination of blues and jazz with a funk driven rhythm. He combined this with a touch of high-pitched psychedelic sounds that were created by his guitar jam session improvisations.
These tactics were new and questionable on their own, but The Jimi Hendrix Experience included a dramatic stage performance that brought him wide exposure and recognition.
This is why Jimi Hendrix is known world wide as one of the greatest guitar players and most influential musicians in the history of rock music.
