To get the lesson for this song; the lesson is now available here: bit.ly/3u7Gya4 Lesson contains Videos, Tabs, Chords, Guitar, Amp, Tone discussion, other gear, studio gear, recording, microphones, looping etc. Loads of reviews in the RU-vid comments of any of my videos :)

I haven't seen anyone on youtube playing hendrix this accurate since Pilky27

I can only imagine how many 1000's and 1000's of hours he practiced his craft, to reach the point where it looks and sounds effortless and as fluid as it could be, Jamie definitely is a grandmaster in playing guitar.

I can say with absolute certainty, that this is the best cover version of this song that I’ve ever heard!

I remember hearing this song for the first time and crying at how beautiful the solo is.

2:53 The entry to the solo is amazing. I love the attack on that note

It's so great to see someone achieve such a high level of mastery at their craft. This was an excellent performance, Jimi would be proud.

You know he is a good guitarist when he does something you've never seen on a guitar... bend - hammer on tap - slide - pull off - unbend Absolutely nuts

Outstanding. Great tone and feel. I could listen to this guy play all day.

Very simply the best cover of this song I've ever heard. The added solo is just beautiful. Wow.

I get the joy of rediscovering this video every year. It’s truly magical 🎸

Your music makes me happy. Watching your covers helps me to heal my depression. thanks God that in this world exist people like you. Soon when I'll get my first credit card I'll buy your lessons, Please, never stop to play. Keep the blues alive!

Im coming here for 3:05 every day.Brilliant man!

I’m a simple man. I see Jamie post a new video, I hit like

the lick at 3:05 was the best thing that have happened in my life man

- ¿So, how much Reverb do you want? -Jamie: “Y E S”

Just like to say that jimmys interpretation of the wind cries Mary is inspirational and a joy to be behold thank you

How can someone play this song completely flawless and even add an amazing John Mayer-ish solo at the end, genuinely one of the best covers of a song in general that I have ever seen

Jamie you never cease to amaze me! Truly a tribute to all who you cover!

Warms my heart to hear you play. Your a master with the looper...Thank you for keeping Jimi's "music" alive.

Spectacular. I must have watched you play this 100 times over the last several years. It always seems like the first time. Jaime you are an amazing guitarist! I have been learning from you for quite a while now and am so thankful to have you teaching me this wonderful cover. If you are thinking about joining his website and learning this style do not hesitate!

His lessons are no joke. Great material and everything you could possibly need. You can learn the song on RU-vid, but if you want to LEARN how to play it for real, buy his lessons. Loved the Bold As Love lesson, and I'll for sure be purchasing this one. Also: his tone,,,,,,,,,,,,

That tone is spot on. This man is an animal

I purchased Jamie's "Crossing the Bridge" course at the same time I started his beginner course. Quickly looking at the CtB lessons I was initially overwhelmed having only 6 months guitar experience. I am now halfway through the beginner course and his more intermediate content now feels achievable to me. For a new player I find the beginner course gave me the tools to be confident that I can attempt more advanced playing. Of course there is much practice ahead of me but the point is that thanks to Jamie I can see the roadmap to advancing my playing to this style. I've also reached out to him with a question and was very surprised at the quick and encouraging response.

Mate you brilliant, as a 66year old man who has always wondered about the solo bits...breathtaking!!! If I ever became half as good as you WOW you are play so effortlessly that you are amazing, just keep up the great work mate, me I am a writer but I've always wondered about you people and how incredible you are, so Thank You for showing a grateful old man, God Bless You mate. And Thank You RU-vid.

Jamie man you played this so awesome. It allowed me to see the genius in Jimi's writing and playing style......Man he was so incredible, now days Guitarist would have left out all of the fine touches and inserted fancy licks....Jimi redefined the guitar for the `later guitarist' that are being consider as a Guitar God. It was Jmi that is the one...."Top Jimi he's the King!"

The best cover of this song that I've heard, amazing talent!!!! Thanks for sharing this

this is brilliant! im only in my twenties but it takes me back to when I was a teenager, listening to Hendrix those very first times and that newfound sense of what music could be or even shouldbe. Definitely using this as a tutorial!

This is my favorite song of Jimmy Hendrix, Thank You for doing this.

If you're even considering purchasing any of Jamie's lessons then you might be a guitar player, been playing a few years, trying different styles and approaches etc...I get it, I was the same. I love everything JM, SRV, JH and honestly, no bullshit, I've purchased the "everything" package from this guy and I'm blown away by the attention to detail and care this man gives to his tutorials. You really do get what you pay for. I'm working my way through Gravity at the moment and hope to have it nailed soon. The guys a genius. If you're a fan of said guitarists then look no further then jamie. Buy it. You won't regret it! 🤘

Hendrix would be proud...AMAZING!

I'm not into rock but what i've just watched was fantastic. Seeing someone mastering an instrument like this is just amazing ! Big respect and Congrats!

Jamie Harrison; much respect. Thanks for not wasting my time and getting right into it!

0:25 to 0:30 was so smooth and satisfaying ! What a player, god damn ! Very inspiring for me to get back into practice, practice and more practice

This is one of the slickest renditions of a song I’ve ever heard.

Masterclass. Absolutely masterful command of the craft, the song and the tools. We are not worthy.

Young man, you are nothing but pure Awesomeness!!!! I really enjoyed watching you play this song. Thank you.

OMG! You are Awesome! This is soo crazy how good Jini was. Oh and he was in a time where the Beatles where becoming groovy..Jimi paved the way for those that we reefer to was our Guitar Legends!

It's funny, but it has taken nearly 50 years and tons of guitarists taking a crack at this to finally analyze the Hendrix "style".Now everybody is getting into the act! Such a great job laying it out. Nicely done!

Absolutely love your touch and licks added to the entirety of this song. Dude slayed it!

One of the best versions of ever heard. Amazing!

How is it even possible to sound so good!? /bow to you sir!

Dude holy shit, UNREAL performance. Sounds great! Jimi is lookin down and smiling.

I keep coming back to this video every so often, never gets old.

Man. Absolutely incredible. Hands down the best cover I have ever heard.

This guitar sounds so goodddd

For all of you all who are worried about buying lessons from this dude I will tell you this much. He is simply the best there is on youtube. The level of detail in each of these packages is absolutely amazing. I bought the Slow Dancing in A Burning Room Pack and was blown away by the quality of Jamies lesson. Bravo Jamie!

Dude, to be a great guitar player is one thing, but this...seriously. This is something else. Thanks for sharing this gift!

Man, your timing is fenomenal. It is hearing Jimmy playing man! Close my eyes and hear that truly fantastic Jimmy blues.

Amazing as always)))) when I complete all other courses, definitely will buy this one. Thank you for your hard work. Difficult to master this songs, can’t imagine how hard it is to build such detailed lessons. Wow

This made me smile :)!! That's amazing, thanks a lot. Wonderful playing!!! I am going to buy this course!

I had to listen to this a bunch of times......" F"n AWESOME ". Been playing many, many years but just off/on....mostly off. Finally got some great instruction two years ago and stuff making sense for a change...got a great instructor. I am 74 and should have done this a long time ago...Jaime is one helluva guitar player...

Superb! Jimi Hendrix lives on. Great tone, Jimi had a such a style and I believe he was not just a player but an expressionist.

This is like Hendrix on rythm and SRV on lead. Absolute genius.

Woahhh, this is sooooo good! That sound and feeling put in this version is sick! Now following all your video’s and having them on loop every evening👍🏻

Damn this guy certainly is the example of perfectionist and nailed this song down to the bloody perfection.. Jimmy is looking down at u and crying his eyes out dude can tell u tht much for sure...

Wow, you are not kidding around, are you? Incredible. It's hard to take a masterpiece and make it "better", but I think you did it. Simply amazing.

That was very good! Great intonation, great sound and very well played, nice job bro!

You’re underrated af. Let’s get this man some subscribers.

Love it! Hendrix just never gets old!

Watching this as I’m having a shop have my Hendrix signature loaded piclguard installed on my strat 🙌🏻

Nothing short of amazing. Kids this is a master at work right here. If you find better playing on RU-vid please point it out.

OMG. THAT 2ND SOLO MAAAAAAN. AMAZING!!

This guy is a genius!!! Everything completely understood and control.

I just love watching these clips. Magnificent

At 3:40 to 3:41, when the solo was finishing, the looped guitar came in at just the right time. That was way too perfect.

Man that solo is soooo good

You my friend are awesome. You just put me on a Hendrix resurgence. He is truly a gifted man.

In my opinion, the best guitar cover on any song anywhere. I think I listen to this at least once a week for inspiration lol.

really enjoyed that. brought your own sound to the table with you

As Colin Mitchel said previously, this course is absolutely the best I've ever seen. I have been playing the guitar for 50 years and my attitude has been to "never stop learning." I have always enjoyed the solo guitar/singer arrangements. With Jamies use of a looper pedal combined with the arrangement of the songs, you don't need anything else. A microphone, guitar, amp, either hardware or software looper and you have everything you need. I understand he just released a free beginner course just a few days ago. So beginners have not excuses either. So far, I have learned Slow Dancing in a Burning Room and I shot the Sheriff. Our friends and family members have heard me play at least a hundred times, there were some jaw's dropping in my studio when I opened up with an incredible rendition of Clapton and Mayers songs. If you are serious about playing the guitar, go buy this course.

One day. One day I will grow up and maybe even have an ounce of the skill and control that you possess when playing. Absolutely mesmerising!

Wonderful complete personal version. YOUR GAME IS SIMPLY SUBLIME ! Many thanks Jamie. That'll be from now on my source of inspiration for trying playing this track. That 'll need several years for that, so at work.

Holy sweet mother of the devine J...!! That second solo - and that's all yours!? Bloody incredible dude!

These really are the best lessons on RU-vid. It was hard for me to decide to pay money on RU-vid at first but I but the bullet and bought it since so many people say good things and I couldn’t wait to learn the songs he posted, the way he played them. The videos are extremely in depth and can easily be picked up, but isn’t boring either. I’ve learned a lot of this style and cool licks from Jamie’s playing. He really gives you everything and there are no secrets so you can play just like him with hard work! Amazing lessons as always, and great customer service if needed. Can’t recommend this guy enough if you are contemplating it!

the only man who managed to nail hendrix tone and playing besides pilky27 🐐🐐

I think Pilky27 makes the most perfect covers when it comes to Hendrix's songs, tone, and performance-wise. But I like Jamie's flare and I also appreciate it when he adds his own twists to the song. Congrats.

Damn dude. Subbed. That tone is just amazing... and everything else!

This is unbelievably beautiful. One of my favorite videos ever.

I can listen to you play all day that was really great. Enjoyed it a lot.

When the solo kicks still makes my goosebumps on the neck whenever I come back and listen

Huge Hendrix, Srv and John Mayer fan. That's the most beautifully played version I have ever heard.... Absolutely amazing tone and Soo smooth and so accurate .. Best version I have ever heard hands down bar none.. that lick at :305 is so freakn good I just wet my pants. Jimi would be smiling upon you my friend... Smokin'...

You are a Masterpiece, Sir...🔥🔥🔥

May the best cover of this song on the internet. great job

Great playing. Love that no matter how much we all stray in that song the outro is too beautiful to not play as is

You're the man Jamie! Another great lesson for sure

Blown away. This is beautiful!

When you are listening to a good piece of music and think of leaving all the complexity of your life and just play and listen good music feels nice!

most beautiful version ive heard of this song daré i say jimi would be amazed of the understanding you have of his melodic ideas and feel, even further than what he got to acknoledge Just beautitiful jamie

So unbelievably spot on, Hendrix would approve of this is a second! Loved the flair you brought along with it as well. Awesome, awesome work.

Jamie, amazing tone you have coming out of your hands....especially your right hand playing. Throw in a well dialed in reverb tail and delay with a bit of dirt and you've created an awesome sound here! Very inspirational! Thanks for sharing

Simply speaking - inspirational...I love it all about this video.Beautiful production in every aspect - a little masterpiece.

Very good sound!!! Very good performance!!! 🇬🇷

That lick at 3:06 is so John Mayer it's unreal. Love it

I can get alot of satisfaction of this. You make it seem simple because its spotless. But I know you have put alot of time in this. Thanks mate!

Man... That tube is screaming!!! Sounds absolutely perfect!

that slide at 3:06 is so smooth holy crap

Wow! I am annoyingly skeptical of strat tone and blues playing. You really are the real deal. That tone is absolutely amazing, and your relaxed hands let out soul just like Jimmy and Stevie. Super clean rakes, amazing dynamics with emotion. Very well done brother!!!

This has always been one of my favourite Hendrix tunes. Nice share, gonna go listen to the original now. Thank you..

Possibly the most gorgeous Strat tone I've ever heard!!
