A place to talk about the music of the Grateful Dead
Candyman1984 wrote:Phish is Music?Lol your serious arent you? Anyways I will say this. Jimi was good very good. But to say he was the most inventive guitar player ever is RIDICULOUS. And to say that hard rock wouldnt have happened without him yet again is RIDICULOUS. Im not sayin Jerry was the best, im not sayin Jimmy Page was, Joe Pass, Joe Satriani. Anyone for that matter! Everyones different so give it up with these stupid posts saying how this one guy is the best and this other guy sucks. Its called opinion people!

I think he is a good guitarist but I RARELY listen to Phish. And when I do its only a handful of songs. So bash Trey all you want lol I can care less. BUT aaaanyways. I wouldnt say all guitarists are equal but I can damn sure guarantee you he wasnt the most inventive. Did he create all the genres out there right now? NOO So how can he be the most inventive. Now I dont like it but look at Emo and Black metal and all that shit. They took music and totally tweaked it. Look at the Disco Biscuits. They do shit no one really does. Look at Jerry. He did some things people never really touched up to that point. Alot of guitarists are just as inventive. Now let me say this. I think you got me all wrong. I never said Jimi wasnt inventive. He SURE AS HELL was inventive. Damn inventive in fact but not THE inventor. And Ill back up anyone who says he is definitely overrated. Great guitarist and certainly deserved an occupation out of it but he wasnt the fuckin best as everyone seems to think.
1st rock guy w/octaves
Star Spangled Banner
Little Wing
Machine Gun
Hey If people want to say They dont like his style thats cool but to say he wasnt one of the most influential guitarist is Dumb.
THe guy said Hendrix was all fx.Dumb.
People knocked my guy so I knocked back.
Hey I just write what I feel man.
And BLob who in your opinion is more inventive than Hendrix?
I bet you will say they are all equal.Cozy.How bout I say Trey is the man?
Tennessee Jedi wrote:Hmmnn.Hendrix or the "Disco Biscuits "Wow ok first let me just say that just because he is remembered after 40 years doesnt have anything to do with how inventive he is. Secondly influential and inventive are two TOTALLYYYY different things.
Hmmnnn.
Hendrix was 40 years ago.In 40 years will Emo ,Black Metal, or said Disco Biscuits be mainstream?Or will they be forgotten?
I guess we are talking about 2 different things.I'm more into the Jerry thing myself.
But Jimi had one huge impact on the world.
I really dont think there is anything wrong with saying he was one of the most influential guys to ever pick up the git.
Just my opinion.
