I listened to Axis: Bold as Love last week for the first time in years. That album still sounds fresh, and has my two favorite songs from him on it: "Castles Made of Sand" and "One Rainy Wish".
 
Yes,i do not know what it precisely is, that keeps me hooked.

I boiled it down to timing. Hendrix seems to know just that ... that G spot. That. You can feel it right down your being.
I do feel that.

Stratogasme.

I do know it kept me whole when i was younger, out of the dark when evil arrived and it did, it nearly won, was played a lot on my stagg night long ago,

So.

Yes sayest this proud humble member of the Electric Church.

It is strange how fresh it feels. After 60 plus.

Brian Wilson, the last of the original Beach Boys, passed this morning. One of my favorite studio clips showing his intensity when making the music and the joy when it comes out just right.

In several scenes in that video, you can see Brian trying to tell Mike and others that the song needs hand claps. He even does it at one point. Always thinking of the music. Genius. R.I.P.

Jimi had tunes, groove, and swagger. I played bass in a Hendrix tribute band back in the 90s and so, even though I was a fan long before then, had to dig deep into his musicianship in order to play my parts. His fusion of rock, r&b, and blues was and is still phenomenal, unmatched.

I remember reading an anecdote related by Clapton. He'd heard about Jimi playing at the Marquee in London in late 1966, and went down there to catch the Experience in their formative days. On his way into the club, Eric related, he ran into Jeff Beck, walking out.

"That bad?"

"No, mate, that good."

Not sure how true that might be, but I can see both of them being changed by hearing Jimi for the first time.

Crisis Squire has a most amusing story.
