Jimi in the middle, The two other guys...
On the left there is Mitch Mitchell and on the right is Noel Redding.
For now we can focus on them, Noel plays the bass. Astonishing, if you
have ever "actually" listened to Hendrix and know the experience, you would
know how integral Noel and his bass are. Noel is usually heard following
Hendrix's free-forming jazzy lines, its a really distinct sound for the
experience, listen up. Mitch is almost as innovative as his left handed
counterpart when it comes to drumming, just listen up! We all know about
Jimi,relentlessly pursuing his sound by torturing his musical
tools and inventing the modern use of distortion by bludgening
his pricey Fender equipment. Jimi's sound was transormative
as he twisted classic blues to his own passionate
voice, this is why he has become legend.
"Love or Confusion" is off of their first
album, my favorite album of theirs,
the lyrics are incredible as they usually are, the song retains a simple
Jimi pattern.
Here to help you groove into the new year.
~or not~
This version is off of a live album, this song is elusive on the web!
