Hear My Train A Comin' (Acoustic) by Jimi Hendrix
“What a pity there don't seem to be more recordings of Hendrix playing an acoustic guitar. I remember when I first saw and heard this being fascinated with how his (very big!) fingers fluttered across the fretboard, and how the guitar line weaves in and out of the vocal line, sometimes being in straight unison, at other times contrasting and being almost percussive. Just goes to show what an amazing blues player the man was - as if any one was in doubt.”

Jimi doing what Jimi does best. Beautiful vulnerability about this performance. #longlivethejams #homestraight

Jimi, acoustic, 12 string tuned down to whole steps, humble and self effacing even at his most brilliant moments, #puresoul, #tastybusiness
