I decided to do a Hendrix thread for songs and quotes. Ill start by making my own quote.

"The Guitar is something magical. It will give you rewards if you can play good" -Jimi Hendrix

when hendrix had injured his right hand, someone extended his right hand to greet him. jimi extended his left hand and said "please... this one's closer to my heart".

That would be called a falsehood. As a fellow Forum member I should caution you against writing such, even in jest. Might I also add that many of your threads are feeble attempts to engage readers so that you can tell them something you have an opinion on or just preach your gospel of sorts. Please stop preaching, you're not our Dad and we definitely aren't your children. There have been other members in the past who have been as self-centered, unless you are one of the, thankfully, missing who has returned.IMHO

Sorry Reb, but I didn't make that one up...Story was told by Paul McCartney on several occassions...the volume with Cream and Hendrix was a wee bit loud but Cream was the first to play at that volume and still sound great :wink:

RE;Kiss the Sky/Kiss This Guy.if you take in the proper context of the song Kiss the Sky fits perfectly as the song was supposedly thought up while Jimi was still in the middle of a very intense trip on Purple Microdot acid and anyone who has experienced the effects of these chemical concoctions would readily see the analogy.Jimi also made an even more blatant drug analogy in The Strars That Play With Laughing Sam's Dice- STP/LSD which are chemically related hallucinogens.The scenario of this song was Jimi and his entourage hurtling through space in a flying saucer.Jimi was consumed with UFOs and the Occult as a lot of his songs reflected in their lyrics.

Jimi used to in jest point to Noel Redding in concert and say" Kiss This Guy" to get a giggle from the audience.
