The Jimi Hendrix solo nobody has ever heard (until now) 

this is good content

Respect!

lol its the very beginning of the video and i came down to the comments to make sure it wasnt an april fool’s joke. good thing its not!

ITS not? lol

Cl

He's still ahead of the timez!! R.I.P. Jimi

Cool

Robert Johnson did it

@@johndodson4527❤yes the first

Hey man, cool story. Did you really meet him? Also you can find videos of the whole song backwards. Check it out!

@C W That's fucking so cool.... thanks for sharing!

@C W jam where

I am 8 yrs. younger. This was the first 'stereo' recording I ever heard. This and the Who, Who' s Next.

@C W When I saw Hendrix in '69, in Detroit, he ended the show after only ~45 minutes, saying, "I'm tearing my speakers up." He just wasn't into it, that night. But he apparently felt badly about the short show, so he came back 3 months later, playing for only 3 thousand fans instead of 10k, but was said to have put on a great show.

Reverse engineering, (pun intended ;))

Source?

The first song he did it on was Are You Experienced, which definitely was influenced by. He and Kramer figured out how to do many of the effects on the fly, but Hendrix was jamming Tommorow Never Knows in clubs before he even had a single release. Nearly very bootleg searcher has come across the one with it and Jim Morrison being a drunken fool over the jams.

Luka Krkljes Do some googling if you don’t believe it. Eddie Kramer has told these stories for nearly 50 years now.

I feel like just about every cool thing The Beatles did was the result of them accidentally messing something up and then saying yes.

No name the LSD didn’t hurt neither!😂

Lee Enfield jimi knew. It’s a mere difference between the power of love and the love of power. Simple, but not so much. If we knew everything what would we share? If we felt and never analyzed, would any soul exist? Jimi would want to hear this guitarist, absolutely free, to dig him. ¿Gid

It’s easy to do even on the simplest GarageBand app on an iPhone. It’s really fun. I’ve used the reverse feature to learn the Are you Experienced and 1983 suite stuff.

and back then nobody would've imagined that Jimi would've done something like that.

Just think - Jimi did it with 60's technology. An astonishing artist.

Jon Smith yeah, that and acid. The 60s technology was acid and the mind. The things you hear when you listen to what sound itself can hear.

Also tomorrow never knows

I saw this just before I was going to comment Tomorrow Never Knows haha.

man there are so many Hendrix backwards solos. What was really interesting is when he would play the reversed incarnations of the solos live. For example the solo from are you experienced? Well .... are you? Gott love Jimi...

While watching this I was like "Man, this makes me wanna listen to 'I'm Only Sleeping' ".

Apenas iba a decir esa!, fue primero que la de Jimi que no?

Lol!

i actually enrolled in their beginner course and its been great!

I watched it once like a year ago to be nice but ya, that’s exactly what I do

*buys RU-vid premium*

The easiest way to ensure the audience skips your add. Their Jedi mind tricks won't work on us stronger minded folks.

YES!!!! One example is Jimi and the Band of Gypsys LIVE at the Filmore East = STONE FREE solo. I've offered $1,000.00 to any guitarist who can sing and play it LIVE all the way thru in one take like Jimi did and ALL guitarists run and hide from the challenge! I'd LOVE to write a $1,000.00 check, but I don't think anyone will ever have the guts to even TRY to play it in front of a camera.

@@mikeanderson7962 Are you serious about that offer??

@@mikeanderson7962 I'll try

@@mikeanderson7962 OK challenge accepted...I'll be back in 10 years .I'll hold you to this .... Then I go watch it... ."I've gotten in way over my head"

@@mikeanderson7962 that was absolutely amazing. Jimi is something else

💯

any tips to get started on working with rhythm because tbh honest I dont get all the jargon and need to find a good place to start

@@troy1516 Let's keep jargon to a minimum, then. You want to feel the time as much as you hear it. The first exercise that really gets you to feel time is working with the metronome on beats 2 and 4. I know that a lot of musicians hate the clicky metronome, but if you use it right, that little clicky box will transform your rhythm faster than any other exercise. If you can can't 1, 2, 3, 4, you can do this exercise. Put the metronome at 60bpm. When the click plays, you should be saying "2" and "4." Get used to that. It may feel weird or you may be tempted to count "1" and "3." If you lose the count, just stop and count it as "2" and "4." The empty spaces between the clicks are "1" and "2." Feel those empty spaces. Imagine there is a click or a beat there. Your head may even want to fill it in for you. Next, you want to fill the spaces between "3" and "4" with the other numbers. This will feel weird and you'll get tripped up. It's ok, you'll get the hang of it eventually. You will be saying "1, 2, 3, 4" with "2" and "4" on the clicks and "1" and "2" on the silent gaps. When you can do this, grab the guitar and start playing along to the click this way. The silent gaps are the "downbeats" and the clicks are the "backbeats." You can think of the clicks on the backbeat like the snare drum in a basic rock beat. The challenge is you have to fill in the down beat with nothing other than your ear to guide you. You'll want to keep whatever you play simple just to hear the back beat correctly. It may take some time, but what should happen is when you're "grooving" the metronome will sound like it's also grooving. It won't sound stiff or boring but actually sound like it's playing with you. Do a youtube search for "metronome on beats 2 and 4." You should find some videos demonstrating the exercise. Also search for "playing behind the beat" and "playing ahead of the beat" and "playing on top of the beat" Lastly, you should search "syncopation for bass players." I find that bass players teach syncopation better than guitarists, but you can still use the same information. This is a lifelong journey. It takes time and patience. Make it part of your practice, even if it's just 30min a day, a few times a week. You will see results. And you'll enjoy playing more.

@@DannyVDub as a drummer I'll explain and even easier way to track time in standard 4 4 time. We just go 1 2 3 4 for quarter notes, 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 for 8th notes 1 e and ah 2 e and ah for 16ths and normally just verbalize triplets like 1 trip let 2 trip let or trip I let, trip I let

I believe line 6 & others have a pedal that will play solos backwards or at least make it sound that way.

Sounds great! I may give it a try!

Might have to check it out as well! :)

Wayland C right!

Great story. That's what happened to me too. 16 years old and was blown away by Jimi's sound so picked up the guitar and got precisely nowhere. Went to work with some guys, one of whom, a drummer, knew Mitch while he wa with Georgie Fame and set up a few old paint tins and boxes, showed me how to hold the paintbrush handles as sticks and suggested I take up drums. I did and spent every moment trying to work out what Mitch was doing, much to friends and family's displeasure at times. I put that style into our teen band a punk/funk/ thrash style, nothing fancy, but the other drummers could never work out what I was doing, and made for something completely unique. I'd love to have heard him get into more varied times, but I guess that progression was denied us by Jimi's passing. I've got to say, I really do like Billy Cox on bass..

Audacity-....never heard of them.

@@joycesanders4898 Audacity the recording/editing software. It's basic as hell for the most part but it's always been free for the better part of 20 years now. Easy to import audio files and chop them up, reverse them, apply some effects.

When I was in college I took an Intro to Rock history that covered everything from the very beginnings to the late 90's. When we got to Jimi it was said he visualized and understood things the same as Beethoven. Being able to take any riff or melody he wrote and play it anywhere on the fretboard either forwards, backwards, or however he felt. Doesn't matter if he just wrote it.

Literally the equivalent of kids that say "I was born in the wrong generation" lol

@@jaredtbo2075 Mate, you don't know the half of it, I mean, I've played guitar a long time (since 1999!) but I've only just discovered Heavy Metal (You know who) this time last year! I am always so late with everything 😂

@@mrdfk9410 I was just kidding anyways. Pulling your leg but my point still stands lol. Have a good day

@@mrdfk9410 Who?

Mr DFK someone already did this on RU-vid

exactly my first thought

Beatles actually had some mad solos like the one on taxman and good morning good morning

Da El the end has a great solo

"looking forward" to hearing backward?

@@dael9163 Paul plays the lead on Taxman. he said he threw a little Indian notation in there for George.

Exactly, I'd rather go through that TBH

I’m pretty sure that solo was completely in reverse it would’ve been more interesting for me

@@MB-kt8lh I covered that solo a few months ago, its in reverse as well. You can use the same technique he showed in this video to learn it

I've heard the live versions and Jimi does an amazing job of playing the reverse solo live...legendary...

I had to give up the flute a few years ago ,pnd now I wish I had a guitar. It looks fairly simple huh ?

We

Tube amps seemed to channel the Aether. Perfect for Jimi

The Beatles actually didn't use reverse delay on I'm Only Sleeping, Paul reversed the tape.

Jev!AnimateProductionsInc2K5 GDMT i am pretty sure there is one on tomorrow never knows though

@@davidisntfunny9356 Including the guitar feedback at the end.

None of these are "reverse delay," that's a whole other thing, I think Tyler is just tripping over his words/thoughts.

Thats actually how people do it including Hendrix. Try it. It's awesome!

Beatles did this.

Had to read this one twice

Bradley Hall do this all the time

Marc Aurelius a RU-vidr called thedooo has done that for his solo “ascend”

Cool edit pro.. awwa the memories! Now its been transformed into Adobe Audition i believe...

Are you experienced solo greatest rock solo of all time.

@@jager9022 isnt that what Hendrix did too?

@@tehuselessguig3138 Nope they didn't exist back then. They just reversed the tapes literally. Fuck knows how they got the percussion in too, splicing them in would have been so tedious I imagine. It's amazing, the music made before the digital era was so delicate, one mistake or misplaced tape reel and you'd have to start all over again. Music tech' has come a damn long way since then.

Indeed give it away does

@@mrdfk9410 yeah, i was saying he reverses the whole thing too

Yes first song I thought of

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-77PuXrU6H2Y.html Eric Johnson did it.

Is just a blues jam reversed with words put to it.

It's not a solo but yes it is reversed

DUDE!.... I played"Blackened"in reverse using a cassette tape on a tascam Porta 04, 20 years ago(give or take).I figured out how to play all the rhythm guitars and all the harmony guitars if you play the intro backwards,you can hear how it was played forward. Then I proceeded to do the entire intro by myself,Layer all the rhythms and harmonies, and then reverse my recording and see if it sounded exactly like the intro. IT DID!!!... I still have it lying around on cassette some where and I'm very proud of that tape because when I play it for my friends it sounds exactly like the intro to "Blackened" fading in and everything..... it's great. It was a lot of fun figuring out how to do it. And the recording I made was exactly like theirs when I played my version in reverse.

I’ve tried. But not having perfect pitch and being lazy makes it difficult. I’ve got the first bit down

@@ayoutubeaccount864 if you have the equipment to play the intro to Blackened backwards, it sounds exactly like a forwards normal track. It's just one rhythm guitar & about five or six other guitars harmonizing together over top of it. Then you reverse what you just learned from the tape, and remaster it and put it onto a different cassette or CD. If you learn how to play the reverse part forwards(which is actually pretty freaking easy after listening to what it sounds like) you could make your own copy and do it yourself it's not that hard.I would say the first thing you should do is put black and then and play that intro backwards and then you'll realize how easy it is to play. The guitar playing is very sophomoric on that piece when played forwards..✌️💀✌️

Oh crap I forgot

Lol

But there's an april fools joke part - he's acting like it's breakthrough to him but reversing was actually one of the things I did when I heard this song for the first time. I bet he did it as well...long long time ago;)

slap elbows!

He knew time and 3 dimensions. Re-string that guitar? Play right handed. Practise running the sounds backwards. Develop knowledge. Attack curves. Fall-offs. Initial harmonics. Sustaining harmonics. He was very educated in his craft and talent. Or he developed his talent to the highest element of his craft. Be here now. Practise, practise practise.

Thats the gift/burden of being left handed. Constantly trying to learn something, explained by a right hander, then having to flip it for your left handedness. Working with tools, in kitchens, bathrooms, everything. everything is fucking backwards & needs to be flipped. a life of that is sure gonna strengthen the muscle memory.

He did the reverse genius think without studying Aleister Crowley as Jimmy page did or Billy Shears(Faul McCartney) or John Lennon

Ask any of his ex-girlfriends and they'll all tell you he came into his own on the retraction stroke.

Well Played, Sir !!

@MorbidManMusic ...anymore

@MorbidManMusic a whole spiritual cultural industry based off of......?

Jimi (In heaven) made me lol

Eric Johnson. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-77PuXrU6H2Y.html

Smh.....

Purple Haze, a Thai mixed sativa dominant strain with higher anthocyan concentration, creating some lovely 60's purple buds. Named after an apparent batch of lysergic acid diethylamide. Mary Jane and Lucy are sisters as far as I know. Cannabis actually affects 5-HT2a receptor activity. And as anybody who has had a South African sativa rich in THCv or a great edible knows: Mary Jane sure is psychedelic as well! I've had more intense tracers on weed alone then on 1.5 tab of pink sunshine.

He wasn't on drugs as a child when he started playing. Jimi had a gift and saying most of it was drugs is rather offensive. The man slept with his guitar, he loved that thing!

Yep "greg" did this same exact thing last year without 12 minutes of un needed talking ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pJ1KA7jTt7I.html

Greg is a pro

There are videos of this song backwards on RU-vid that are over 5 years old. I personally learned this backwards solo over a year ago, and I'm sure people were reversing the solo within the year that the song came out.

43 years? Your math is terribly off. I recommend working backwards for the correct answer

NO.

B B why will we be dissapointed? its just you man

Yes

@@takayukihokase1515 cause then we would have been able to see how close his timing was for certain parts and it would have been easy to distinguish slight differences between both Solo's. And apparently Jameson agrees and a few others who liked the comment

Yep

Yes! We cant forget Drifting...

Yep greg did this shit last year, and people were listening to jimi shit in reverse for years before this aswell

Greg did it way better

Hell yea tyler should give greg some credit

I bet my ass Jimi wanted someone to do this for fun's sake!

Brendan Hawkins this dude Greg on RU-vid did this awhile ago

@@jeffbezos7368 thank you. People have reversed it since the 80s atleast and greg played it foward on guitar last year ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pJ1KA7jTt7I.html
