Jimi Hendrix - Guitar Player
Jimi Hendrix is one of the most influential guitarists in rock music. He had to go to England to achieve success at first, then he achieved worldwide fame at the Monterey Pop Festival and the 1969 Woodstock Festival.
Hendrix pioneered the technique of guitar feedback with overdriven amplifiers, incorporating into his music what was previously an undesirable sound.
Hendrix strove to mix a blues, jazz, or funk driven rhythm accompaniment, with the high-pitched psychedelic sounds created by his guitar improvisations. As a record producer, Hendrix was one of the first to experiment with stereophonic and phasing effects during recording.
