    Stevie Ray blew Hendrix away covering voodoo child.

      Fuck I was going to say Srv little wing over hendrix. Glad to see someone else appreciate Srv. He's (in my opinion) the best guitar player.

        best rock guitarist, yeah. Santana plays with more emotion or feeling or soul or whatever. joe satriani was good for a bit but went to shit altho surfin with the alien is still a guitar lover goto though.

      How about the Cure's version of Purple Haze?

        Stevie ray won over Hendrix with monster guitar skill. I listened to the cure purple haze, not for me. Sounded like overproduced synthetic 80s music. Wanna hear some overproduced synthetic 80s music updated to modern? Disturbed land of confusion. message fits better these day, good video too.
