Hendrix basically invented thrash metal though.

Yeah, even if Brothers in Arms is more than a homage to Bird of Paradise by Snowy White.

But don't get me wrong, I'll forgive him anything for his guitar work on Big River.

And yeah that's kind of accurate I think. It's pretty fast and long but it's just fairly standard tremolo picking I think, so if you have practiced to get the speed right and have the stamina it is manageable.

A solo like this for example I think is a lot harder:

I could be wrong though. Any guitarists still here on the forum? We had a few a while back but that was a long time ago.

Oof, lol.

I saw something on AXS Tv about a week ago where a guy said Clapton was taken to a club to see a pre-famous Hendrix, and he (Clapton) went home and practiced for a year. laughing

He's still in the top 10, probably top 5 of all time.
