The belief that Morgan Freeman is in actual fact the late and great guitarist, Jimi Hendrix.
"I don't care what you say, Morgan Freeman is actually Jimi Hendrix and it's all one big cover up."
"You're a fucking loony. No way is Morgan Hendrix. That's just crazy talk."
a good person who had a troubled life with other people; a cursed life by most standards. He would not have liked anyone to anger any Gods out there, or anyone to put him in the list of damned rock stars, but his influence made great changes in his times, when black people would never have led white people around America during civil right riots, thereby he led by example of how black leadership could exist in the world, even with white people. He played the way he felt was most innovative, and created a sound where he thought the imperfections of the world matched with his playing abilities, and using the imperfections he made greater riffs. His music was inspirational to all leading guitarists at the time, and that must mean something( he did expand the realms of guitar playing not just by the way he played it, but by what he played with). He, like, everyone else from a poor background, did try to make money to survive, and trying to be popular is a way to survive so he did gimmicky things to make it work, even playing in his unorthodox way. He was great and different, and being different sparks controversy. It seems that there is always someone to argue the case of him being the greatest guitarist, but it is the greatest and not neccesarily the best. But why do these hard line haters of Jimi keep comin onto Jimi's website. You don't see this in other sites of the greatest people, like Elvis, Einstein or the Beatles. If you want to hate somebody, hate somebody worthy of that hate. People should not judge someone because they think they don't belong, as Jimi only seems to belong once he died, as he knew. Maybe the debate shouldn't be about Jimi but about the debaters. They seem determined to make his image a battle ground; seeing him as a target for abuse. He was only being himself and did what he could do with what he had. The summer of love may have been influenced by him too, and we should remember what he stood for, peace too, and why do some people miss that point. It is the image and the player and his principles, that made him great, even though you may not see it like that. He was always for peace and harmony.
Jimi Hendrix's greatness is shown by the age that followed him, the peaceful Monteray and Woodstock festivals and the fans from all races. He was,great, hopeful,good, positive,determined, and spiritual. We must remember the situations and difficulties he was under. His life story is astonishing and influential.

Jimi is/was the greatest guitarist of all time. He was so good that God took him from us at age 27. Jimi Hendrix knew how he wanted his music to sound, and INVENTED things to get that sound -- wah-wah, fuzz, feedback. Go get the Purple Box Set (expensive, but worth every single cent) and hear 4 full CD's of live and studio music that will make you understand what is Jimi!!
Fly on, Little Wing -- Jimi Hendrix rocks!

Jimi Hendrix remains ahead of his time way past his all to unfortunate death.he paralyzes,inspires and defines evocative music. My mom played his music endlessly hence I his Voodoo Child.
If you have Jimi HenDrix and Janis Joplin you have a complete music collection.

1. By far one of the greatest people who have ever live and not because he was the first widely famous black guitarist.
2. Mastered ever possible guitar technique, including playing a guitar on fire and play it with his teeth.
3. Recorded songs while high on LSD's and Purple Haze.
By far one of the greatest men in the music industry, no one is as good as him and no one ever will be, fuck Slash, fuck Van Halen and any other fucking turdburgler who picked up a guitar and thought they will ever be as good as him.
Some Hits:
1. Purple Haze
2. Manic Depression
3. Foxy Lady
4. Star Spangled Banner (with his teeth)
5. Easy Rider
6. Are you Experienced?
7. Can you see me?
8. Fire
9. I Don't live today
10. Stone Free
Just to begin with...

The man who created the ultimate soundtrack for the climax of the time that reshaped our nation into what it is today, namely the revolution of the 60's. maybe he wasn't the cleanest guitarist, maybe he wasn't always the crispest most perfect musician out there, but by god he played with more feeling than clapton or slash or anyone else ever will(not that i dislike them, clapton's definitely up there). and you can't say that he couldn't play the same things as them, he easily could with practice, like they had time to practice. he employed the imperfections and extra sounds and turned all the slip-ups he made into some sort of lick or effect. the amazing thing about jimi is that he made up on the spot some of the most difficult and influential licks in the history of music. there is absolutely no way around the fact that he is the greatest guitarist, even if he isn't the most perfect. That's why we'll travel by my dragonfly.
The Star Spangled Banner-Woodstock
The Purple Haze Solo-Woodstock(if you haven't heard it, you need to get a copy of "Jimi Hendrix: Live at Woodstock)
