true but not LZ. Jimi praised both Jimmy Page and John Bonham as musicians but naturally Jimi would have intimately know all of the songs LZ ripped off on their first two albums.
Zeppelin borrowed from everybody (that’s very obvious) but it’s not like it’s a great sin. Everybody borrows from everyone and musicians call them their “influences.” It’s just that in Zeppelins case it was a little more obvious. No doubt they were a legendary and talented band though.
Most of Floyd’s most prolific music came out well after Hendrix died. The early stuff with Sid Barrett was simple by today’s standards but at the time in England it was progressive. I doubt Hendrix wasted any time criticizing other bands.
I personally spoke with Jimi at the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970 and he told me he specifically loved all the bands (and Motown) you mentioned. However, he also mentioned 5 things he really did HATE --- clickbait, posers, influencers, the internet and camera phone addiction.
Just for some perspective, Jimi Hendrix died on September 18, 1970. Led Zeppelin had only been around 22 months and Led Zeppelin III and IV had not been released. Likewise, Hendrix died before the releases of Pink Floyd’s Atom Heart Mother, Meddle, or The Dark Side of the Moon, and before Floyd’s big stadium tours with light shows.
Obviously you don't know much about LZ. Otherwise, you are making excuses for them. LZ1 had 6 cover songs from 9 songs. LZ2 had 4 cover songs from 9 songs. The big hits such as Whole Lotta Love were a complete rip off. Whole Lotta Love was a double cover and stole the Small Faces cover of the original You Need Love.
I ll take jimi over any of those others . Always. Pages song writing grew morr inyeresting than the 1st album . I ll give them that. Gilmout and waterd song writing came along wsy too. But if u seen them in a club without the big production striped right down. I think u would get what jimi meant. As for morrison. Well when u get on stsge with jimi. U aint in the doors. . Different story. Jimi was the most incredible by far And thats a. Unanimous statement
@@eaglesonmusicgroupltdeagle8138 If you strip Floyd's songs back, you still get really nice songs.. Anyway Hendrix didn't dislike Floyd later(he did earlier in his career) he said something to the effect of' what people don't understand about Floyd is they are rocks mad scientists ' at this point he admired them.
@@eaglesonmusicgroupltdeagle8138 LZ were a band. Page did not exclusively write songs. He cannot be compared in any way shape or form to Hendrix. Robert Plant wrote the lyrics to Stairway
Ironically, Jimmy Page said he bumped into Hendrix in a club in 1969 (I think) but Hendrix was totally out of it and so Page couldn't talk to him properly as Hendrix was wasted.
@@lyndoncmp5751 SOME SAY HENDRIX WAS KILL WITH DRUGS BY THE cia BECAUSE HE WAS SO PROLIFIC AND INFLUENTIAL AND CREATIVE. The cia WAS RIGHT IN KILLING hENDRIX BECAUSE HE WAS THE FIRST TO RAISE THE VOLUME OF THE AMPLIFIERS TO SATURATION LEVELS, inventing by this way hard rock e, heavy , punk and other styles which rely in distortion and high amplification, bringing a decade , the 70's , of excesses followed by the 80's with more excesses even.
If you're refering to Jim Morrison, you got the substance wrong... The guy was mostly out of his mind on booze, not drugs. He didn't even need drugs to get to this level of inappropriate behaviour.
I can see why Jimi dismissed Morrison. Jimi was a stoner and a peacenik, Morrison was a drunk, and drunks can get really obnoxious, violent, and embarrassing. The fact is, though, that Jimi was clearly heavily influenced by the blues - “Voodoo Child” is a rewrite of Son House’s “ Death Letter Blues,” for example - and such modern jazz people as Wes Montgomery, Larry Coryell, Sandy Bull, and John McLaughlin. When Morrison could get temporarily sober, The Doors were equally professional and sophisticated, which is why their music is still fresh and valid.
I always remind Zep haters . There isn't a band on earth that is totally original . We all learn and are influenced by someone before us . Zep weren't afraid to take any genre and make it their own .
@@rcameron4091 Yeah, and unlike Led Zeppelin, people like Jimi Hendrix gave credit where credit was due without being dragged into court. Led Zeppelin literally stole other people's music and claimed it as their own ! Take a look at the songwriting credits on Zeppelin's original albums, and compare them to the songwriting credits on Zeppelin's re-issued albums !!! NOTICE ANY DIFFERENCE ??????? When Eric Clapton covered a JJ Cale song, he gave credit to JJ Cale; when Jimi Hendrix covered a Bob Dylan song he gave credit to Bob Dylan. That's the difference between plagiarizing mangy dogs like Led Zeppelin and people like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, and Pete Townshend. It's called integrity, and that's something thieves like Led Zeppelin never had !!!!!!
Willie Dixon stole the majority of his songs from country buskers fresh off the bus from the Delta or wherever. "Here's $20, play that again." He was a broke junkie in the South Side by the 70s, and would've remained that way if not for Zep and his lawsuit.
@@christheother9088 You cant really do THAT :) believe me.. I tried. It was all just a legato played by his left hand there.. oh, his right hand, cos he was a leftie
Strange that Jimi thought Motown music was lacking in genuine emotion… classic recordings like Dancing In The Street, Shop Around, Ball of Confusion etc are so emotionally charged they can move you to tears!
_It was the third of September / That day I'll always remember / Coz that was the day / That my daddy died_ Nope, no emotion there at all! _Tears of a Clown_ - nothing to do with emotion _Sitting on the Dock of the Bay_ - pure triteness
Probably dug more rawness in music and not the highly "polished" sound of Motown. I can relate to his take on Motown. Not a bad thing mind you, but just a opinion.
Motown, with its string sections and marching rhythms, was more polished than Atlantic with Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin, and Stax with Otis Redding and Isaac Hayes, and all the other smaller labels that had everyone from James Brown to Solomon Burke to Al Green. Before he became a star Jimi played on the chitlin circuit with Little Richard and the Isley Brothers -- he probably preferred the more down home stuff.
Bowie felt the same way about Motown music. He said Pennsylvania was the true home of R&B, and that Motown was given the credit, after stealing it, for political reasons.
Speak for yourself! I hate Dancing in the Street, for one, and obv although there were some talented people at Motown it was basically manufactured music - a hit factory.
His criticisms of LZ resonate with me even tho they're in my top 5 fave rock bands. The artists they "borrowed" from got paid eventually, but by then a lot of their lives was already in the past, and they'd deserved to get that money while they were still young. His criticisms of PF made sense _at the time._ Jim Morrison was certainly a drunken jerk at times. The Monkees were created as a TV band, nothing much should be expected of them, their biggest hits were written by others.
Some of the artists they "borrowed" from were already dead...the Estate of the artists got it. Regardless, many of them , especially the blues artists would have been languishing in obscurity if they hadn't been rediscovered esp by the British Blues Rock artists of the 60's. They probably made more money from LZ and others covering their tunes than they'd earned before or would have.
Led Zeppelin didn't "borrow" shit, Led Zeppelin literally stole other people's songs and credited them to themselves ! Compare the songwriting credits on Zeppelin's original albums to the songwriting credits on Zeppelin's re-issued albums ! NOTICE ANY DIFFERENCE ????????? The original artists got paid only when the Led Zeppelin plagiarists were confronted by serious legal action. Led Zeppelin were the lowest of thieving mangy dogs !
I agree with this. Any criticism of LZ is valid . He wasn’t the only one. But while validating criticisms their music soars with and above the best . For 100% Authenticity you will end up writing two tracks a year.
Exactly how I feel, except for Motown. Motown is for times when you just want to BBQ or sit by a pool and soak up some sun. Good times music is fine with me.
I visited Jimi, at the time in LA's history that he lived in the Afton aparments and before I went to Vietnam.. Some of his friends called him Marshal Dillon, kind of after Gunsmoke. James Marshal Hendrix. Anyway as we sat in his living room he played. I could of swore he was playing like voices almost making his guitar sound like it was talking. He was that GOOD. I never saw him again and sadly he came to a tragic end.
@@alanstrom2221 People often confuse could've for could of and Jimi's ingenious use of his wah wah pedal and phrasing made it seem like words were coming from his guitar.
@@alanstrom2221 ...curiously enough that is why I went to his place, to score a hit of acid. He had and gave me one hit, a strawberry barrel. Jimmy was a friend of Odin Fong in Laguna Canyon's Orange Sunshine crowd. However I was 100% straight when we were in the aparment and he was picking. The correction, well through it all, I suppose picking apart gives you the loss. An unexpeced consequence of .....well, carry-on.. NEVERHELESS, I thought Jim could make the guitar talk in the months to come.. Thinking back, I did see him again at the Wisky on Sunset...
Oh, shut up. There's tons of old JH interviews available if you care to look for them. You don't need to be bff with the guy find out info of the kind that's in this clip.
The Monkees, especially Michael Nesmith, loved Jimi Hendrix ...... when Hendrix was booed off of the stage when he opened for the Monkees, Nesmith was embarrassed for him and felt like the audience had no taste.
@@josh-rz3uq Anybody that knows anything about the Monkees knows that they were criminally underrated. They had no taste because they booed Jimi Hendrix, not because they came to see the Monkees.
he was also dead before all the lawsuits for stealing songs! He didn't like them for stealing material - I don't think he would have changed his mind much on that subject
He said they stole from everybody... that's been proven over and over... that being said, most rock musicians steal quite a bit from each other and call it "influence". Hendrix was an anomaly because lots of the songs on Axis and Electric Ladyland are unlike anything that preceded it.
I was somewhat surprised Jimi hated Led Zep, The Doors, and Pink Floyd. so, whatever, it's his opinion...I hated The Monkees back then too, but today i think their songs are actually better than the bland crap they call pop music today.
He just didn't get along with Jim Morrison, but I'd bet he liked the band as a whole. As for Led Zep, and Pink Floyd, I don't like them much either; they have some good songs and all, but I could not for the life of me sit through a whole album from either of them,
The Jim Morrison stories are true. After a big gig , Jimmy and Janis Joplin were jamming in a New York club, and Morrison made a total wanker of himself . He was also extremely rude to Joplin
@@gavintuesday4959I suppose we'll never know for sure, we weren't there. I have read that Janis and Jim Morrison had beef with each other. I'm a huge fan of all of them, the only thing that's certain in my mind is that they'll never be forgotten and their music lives on....
3:01 in the vid: it reads Jimi said he hated the SPOT they put him to play: right before the Monkees came up. Just not the audience for Jimi's band. It also reads he got along with (at least) two of the Monkees.
Well said Stuart,I was lucky enough to see him in 1967 when i was 15. He was the 'dog's bollocks' then and he still is now. Often imitated never equalled.
@@sharonlee4773 Only the perspective to the numerous points made that he could not have been around to have heard the music/bands he supposedly didn’t like.
1) Led Zeppelin 2) Pink Floyd 3) The Monkees 4) The Doors (Mostly Jim Morrison though) 5) some Motown bands Jimi had worked with (not named specifically)
@@cbotten106 The Monkees were never meant to be anything other than a fictional band for the TV show of the same name. However, they were actually pretty good.
@@richardnolan3903 Most of their album songs were played by studio musicians, including Neil Diamond. The Wrecking Crew was also responsible for a lot of their studio compilations. Unless you've seen them live, it's hard to tell how good/bad they were instrumentally.
Oh, shut up. There's tons of old JH interviews available if you care to look for them. To me, these comments seem pretty much in character for Hendrix.
@@JackSparrow-yb3lq I recalled that from the first time I saw an interview where he said exactly that, so yeah, plus the kind of person he was...no real hate :)
The funny thing is that Pink Floyd and the Monkees toured with Hendrix. I can’t help but wonder who he would have listened to in this day and age. I’m guessing everyone who came out of the CBGB’s.
I do know that Terry Kath was one of Hendrix's favorite guitar players. As for what the future looked like for Jimi, he wanted to get more into Jazz and orchestrated music. There are a few tunes that he actually got out that had that production. Chances are, he would have been entertained by that style today, along with other genres as he himself wrote across the board.
Don't know why I'm wasting time doing this but this is probably how all bands talk about each other till they "make it" and if they have still would have had staying power if he didn't die, they would have probably all done projects with each other later.
A lady who lives around the corner from me went to see the Monkees as a teen in the old Odeon Renfield Street Glasgow and walked out on the support act, Jimi Hendrix.
@@wz2001 Thanks! Good to know! Where did you read that? I remember reading someplace that all those bands like The Who, The Stones, The Beatles, The Kinks, The Yardbirds, all hung out at the same place in London. So they all knew each other.
Hendrix' equipment manager Gerry Stickells said "He liked the Zeppelin and had their records" and girlfriend Kathy Etchingham confirmed this when an interview in "Guitar World" magazine elicited the fact that he had a copy of "Led Zeppelin II" in his record collection at their Montague Street flat in London. He also liked Motown, played for the Isley Brothers and basically copied James Jamerson's bass style when he recorded his version of "All along the Watchtower", which Noel Redding had refused to play on.
Well, he's quoted dissing Motown quite heavily here so... And Motown was regarded as exrtremely polished and commercial 'assembly line-produced' music at the time. It makes sense that it wasn't his cup of tea.
Specifically about Pink Floyd - Jimi died in 1970 and never had a chance to listen to their really great albums Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here and more. Maybe he would change his mind if he had this chance. In fact he hadn't listen much of Zeppelin neither - probably only the first and second album.😎😀
Some 20 year old to lazy to get a real job, sitting on his bed in his Mothers house (not Studio Six), digging up any old video footage he can find and then embellishing everything.
Chris Squire, of Yes, tells a story of Hendrix. Chris offered to sit in on a Hendrix gig because Noel Redding didn't show up. After the show, Hendrix said to Chris, "if you can't play, why did you offer?" 😅
Considering that Tork and Nesmith and Mickey Dolenz all talked about what a great guy Jimi was and how they all hung out while they were touring I don't put much faith in this.Granted at that point The Monkees hadn't started recording their own material but I think Jimi was being sarcastic when he said that he hated them.
Wasn't Nesmith the only musician? They weren't hired as musicians but as comedy actors. I'm sure Hendrix knew that. The fact that they had to learn to play basic tunes at least to go on tour is fantastic, and something that wouldn't happen now. The show would all be mimed and no-one would care. I loved The Monkees as a kid...
@@gomezthechimp1116 Peter Tork was a folk singer from New York and could play something like 8 different instruments.Dolenz could play guitar and drums and had one of the first Moog synthesizer.The first two albums were produced by Don Kirshner and they basically sang over pre recorded tracks.Nesmith and Tork rebelled because when they signed on they were promised some degree of studio work.Their third album was played by the 4 of them along with the producer and a horn player.They used studio musicians on the latter albums but played on them.
Hendrix didn't really "hate" any of these. He didn't think much of Led Zeppelin because he knew the plagiarism. The Monkees- well he toured with them but they were the total opposite of his music. And he was actually friends with Jim Morrison.
Opinions about music from the late '60s and early '70s seem pretty naïve in hindsight, but the Jimi Hendrix Experience were some pretty incredible musicians even though their aesthetic was flawed just like everybody else back then. Except for Stevie Wonder, that guy is the man!
He did have criticism of all of them this is overblown he did say zeppelin borrowed too much but said Bonham had afoot like a rabbit said page was a good player but didn't listen to them
Idk he might find them too sex charged with their lyrics. That’s also how Kurt felt about them. Especially if Jimi had a strong moral compass he might not have liked it 🤷🏻♀️
He really got into Led Zeppelin II later in 1970 according to one of his technician friends. He was a latecomer to Zeppelin but he got there in the end. A lot of people didn't 'get' Zeppelin at first, but caught onto them eventually. Seems like Jimi was one of them.
@graciekattan6618 Hendrix? The guy who got his penis plaster cast by Cynthia Plaster Caster, to be put on display in her collection of penis casts? That guy? Moral compass? 😂
This video was created to try to start a controversy. This is BS Hendrix sang other peoples songs Like Hey Joe it was sung by The Leaves on American Band Stand. Along the Watchtower by Bob Dylan, it's just two songs by other artist that Jimi Hendrix did. I'm no expert but I will look up to see if Jimi Hendrix did say "That he hated the Bands" mentioned in this video.
alot of musicians don't know, they THINK they know, but they really and truly have no idea about how to play the opening riff of Hendrix's song "Voodoo Chile". the riff is played by Hendrix, a left hand user, with a right-handed guitar that has been re-strung for a left handed user. they get the pedal work fine and dandy but they constantly fail to know about how Hendrix played.
@@terrymay8114 get off the pipe.... jagger had to reroute his whole game post '68 as morrison had eclipsed him as the most dangerous lead in rock by '68. no one benefitted more from the miami meltdown of morrison then jagger.... stones were talented but always revisionist & derivative. from '66-'68, no one in morrisonzs zipcode.
Most amazing guitarist produced by this planet, however... If Zepplin didn't redo the old blues tunes by black artists, you'd never know their names today. Morrison was an unhinged drunk and a boor. Why would he, even if broke, agree to a bill with the Monkees? Pink Floyd? Why would he care? Apples and oranges. What would he think of the shite, tripe and crap of today? He'd have to be hospitalized...
Zep's "borrowing" is not a sin in my book, but rather not giving credit. I enjoy great reinterpretations of older material, but Zep should have acknowledged them.
It’s theft, by every definition . Theft and specifically plagiarism, as in passing off work that it not yours is a sin in the art world . Go back to English language class . Ffs . Zeppelin fan boys really are idiots
There were at least half a dozen songs where Zeppelin did credit others, without prompting. Including 2 on the first album. There were another 2 songs they didnt claim they wrote.
I suspect that Hendrix' dislike for the Monkees was due partly to the fact that he was booed off of the stage when he opened for them. In fact, the Monkees were the embodiment of musical resilience ...... they were a fake band that somehow managed to evolve into a real band, fighting for their right to play their own instruments on their studio albums, and touring live without a back-up band.
Remember this when someone says your favourite band is not going places / is not talented, people. It's just humans criticising humans, usually because no matter their knowledge and experience, they can't understand what's following their own golden era (or they simply have different taste).
Didn't like gimmicks? The man who set guitar on fire? Integrity of performance? Out of tune and playing with teeth? Motown was badass. So much great music. Didn't like Motor City jam? Huh. Well anyway...Jiminy certainly got credit for his contributions. RIP
I believe the guitar playing with his teeth was seen as cunnilingus .Then Morrison exposing himself on stage numerous times.Neither one was better than the other!
@@christineobrien7707 He NEVER played a guitar with his teeth.. it cant be done, just try it :) I did.. utter nonsence, gimmick.. the notes you hear are his fingerboard hand playing legato... yep, he fooled so many :))
To dismiss Led Zeppelin as just copycats is rather ignorant. They had some of the greatest musicians in the group and they rocked like no one else before them They are legend
People who clearly don't know even the basics about rock history shouldn't post clickbait videos like this. And the same for people who add comments with their ridiculous opinions without having any real knowledge of the late 60's/early 70's music scene. People saying Hendrix wouldn't have known about Pink Floyd is plain moronic. NEWS FLASH! - Hendrix TOURED with Pink Floyd in 1967. In addition, Floyd had a psychedelic light show BEFORE Hendrix. They pioneered the technique in England. Anyone not aware of these facts doesn't know the first thing about classic rock music.
Pretty accurate, and Zep along with the Monkees are manufactured,, hand pucked, Pop. I agree, if he said led Zeppelin. Silly pop rhythm and blues music. He's right about existing music because about eight of their tracks on the first three records were copies. Yep.
this is all based on hearsay - Jimi wasn't known to distain music, his onus was what it was, but all the things he mentions competed with his brand, that's simple to see. This is puerile juvenile revisionism of a substandard content creator
Hendrix died even before Pink Floyds Meddle came out, so way before Dark Side of the Moon. It's actually a surprise he had even heard of them, since their last release before his death was Ummagumma, and I can't blame him for not liking that. I don't know how his opinion has formed though, because I don't think Pink Floyd had big lightshows before DOTM, but I might be wrong. Sounds to me like someone made that up though.
Jimi was very familiar with Pink Floyd, i believe they either played a concert together or a mini tour in 67 with the pinkies, there is a photo with all the bands that played also with Hendrix experience and Pink Floyd and very weird dead eyed Syd.
@@slowpawstevet3676 Well, I didn't know that. I saw some of their early concerts where they only played on small club stages with not much of a show. Very interesting to hear!
Some exceptionally poor journalism in evidence here: the selections by Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd were released long after Hendrix' death, and indeed much of the celebrated content of these bands came later. Also the lack of precise quotes, sources and excess use of paraphrasing make the entire report spurious. What Hendrix thought is lost in the lack of accuracy and context. 👎
I think this is a bit exaggerated. Like others said, Floyd and LZ hit their stride after he OD'd. Jim Morrison was a tool, but most of The Doors music was pretty darn original. Of course, The Monkees were lightweights (with some decent pop songs) but the "entire" Motown sound? Nope.
I think it's the remarks made in this video are BS.. Being old enough to remember Jimi Hendrix he was a mellow guy who sometimes didn't even take himself seriously,, and everything that was happening was cool to him,, he never appeared to be a type of person that would insult or put someone down. He always just expressed a lot of love,,,peace and love.
I saw Hendrix play 4 times and two of them in Hawaii. I got to briefly say hi backstage at the Hawaii Waikiki Shell show and in those couple of minutes he was just so nice and came across as almost humble and thanked me and everyone for attending the show. I cannot imagine Jimi Hendrix hating anyone. He was always saying other guitar players were great and liked to watch other bands. Funny thing I'd like to see these so called quote and what Jimi "felt" with proof. Les Zep was brand new when Jimi died so I have to take this with a large grain of salt.
I met Jimi backstage at the Filmore, He told me hated Steely Dan, he hated their "curlycue" guitar and their sophmoric lyrics, he also told me he really hated ABBA and The Talking Heads. He also told me their was an 11 year kid named Stevie Ray Vance or something like that that steals everything from everyone!
Even if this were true, so what? I’ve long ago learned to separate artists from their behaviour, including their opinions, which are usually as subjective and as skewed as those of any of us.
Imagine what Hendrix might have said about the Osmonds and David Cassidy if he lived a few years longer than he did after 1970. He probably might have said: " I retract my statement about the Monkees. The Monkees actually sound cool compared to these New Big 1970's Stars in 1971, 1972 and 1973."
They didn't have locking nuts, and tail pieces on guitars then. All of the great guitar players in England went to listen, and were in awe of him. Hendrix did things with the guitar no one had done before. The feedback from his amp seems like old hat now, but that's just one example. LZ couldn't play their own music when the performed for their record label going out of business. Find it, and listen because they sucked big time, and not just from being out of tune.
I'm sure Hendrix would have enjoyed Dark side of the moon immensely. As Zeppelin progressed and became very popular in the early 70's, I think Hendrix may have become fond of them. No reason to hate the band after that 4th album. Now the Monkees? Half the guys in the band were not even musicians! The Monkees really liked Hendrix after seeing him at the Monterey pop festival. What was Hendrix doing playing in front of a bunch of teeny bopper girls? It was short sighted and stupid of the Monkees to tour with Hendrix at the time considering their adolescent girl fan base.
Hendrix comment on floyd was early on in his career. Later he actually admired pink floyd saying they were the mad rock scientist of the day. Hendrix wasnt afraid of calling a spade a spade but he was big enough to accept when he was wrong. He would have loved later floyd and zep
Personally I doubt Hendrix had much disdain for Zeppelin, especially if it is being quoted by Carmine Appice who often had a tenuous attachment to the truth. Didn’t Hendrix complement and even covet John Bonham’s abilities? Would be nice to have some accreditation to these statements too.
So Hendrix was an opinionated dick. That's so rare in rock musicians. I could care less what any of them think. I don't need their opinions, just their music.
Hedrix on Floyd a little later..... "When Hendrix took the time to listen to Floyd a bit more intently, he started to hear more of what they were going for on albums like A Saucerful of Secrets, making tracks that sounded like they were coming from a different dimension. Hendrix would later change his tune about Floyd’s direction, explaining to The Narrative Art, “They’re doing like a different type of music. They’re doing more kind of a space thing. Technically, they are getting electronics and all this. They do like a space kind of thing, like an inner space. Sometimes you have to lay back by yourself and appreciate them.” ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vfVw8IZBXAM.html Pink Floyd were only 5 years old when Jimi died, Waters and Gilmoure had only really started honing the future Floyd sound. Ican't imagine Jimi "hating" anything but hate, disliked maybe...
Sadly, Jimi never lived to see Zep crib Spirit’s “Taurus” for the opening of “Stairway to Heaven.” He would have lost his mind, for Spirit’s leader, Randy California, was one of his best friends.
LZ had 10 cover songs from 18 songs on their first two albums (which Jimi would have heard). Jimi had 3 cover songs from 46 songs on his first three albums. Or lets say 1 cover from 30 songs on his first 2 albums. Big difference.
Hendrix actually rejected Morrison's query to join him in singing in Montreal not @the Scene in NYC- people really got ground in they old days as did they actors
I can’t imagine Jimi ‘Hating’ any band he probably disliked them or didn’t approve of them but not hate can’t imagine him hating anyone in the true meaning of the word
Don't waste your time on this video.. If Hendrix never killed himself, he'd be jammin with Page, Clapton, Jeff Beck, Gilmour, etc. If he was alive today, at 81 yrs old, he'd probably be playing with Ringo's All-Star band. Only thing worse than Rock'n Roll snobs is Jazz snobs.
Led Zeppelin covering songs? Jimi Hendrix: All Along The Watchtower, I Was Made To Love Her, Day Tripper, Hound Dog, Born Under A Bad Sign, Killing Floor, Like A Rolling Stone, Wild Thing , Hey Joe. People in glass houses.
@@williamfarr8807Zeppelin transformed old songs by arranging them into master pieces. But you’re right they should have paid their dues when they recorded the songs. However it’s bollocks to say they plagiarised everything. Such a small amount when you look at their canon of work over a twelve year period.
@@nicholasprotz4297agreed. It's usually jealous Beatles or Stones fans that hype up the 'stole' mantra. The songs they took from were virtually unknown and their versions of them are light years ahead in terms of arrangements and performance.
