a great tribute, to a great guitarist! There was only one Jimi Hendrix and oh, boy, did he rock this world! Nice job, Marius! | |
= Corina, he was... | Marius Surleac [31.Oct.08 08:57] |
... the king guitarist, the best guitarist ever, in my opinion, bigger than Frank Vincent Zappa, Joe Satriani, Yngwie Malmsteen, Steve Vai, John Petrucci and others. Also, Jimi is one of my favourites and his performance at Woodstock in '69 was astonishing. Thank you very much and glad you liked it! Cheers, Marius | |

...Jimi was not at all unskilled in the field of poetry. My favorite example is "The wind cries Mary. " Underneath you can read all the words of the song: THE WIND CRIS MARY After all the jacks are in their boxes And the clowns have all gone to bed You can hear happiness staggering on down the street Footprints dressed in red And the wind whispers "Mary" A broom is drearily sweeping Up the broken pieces of yesterdays life Somewhere a queen is weeping And somewhere a king has no wife And the wind cries "Mary" The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow And shine the emptiness down on my bed The tiny island sags downstream Cause the life that lived is dead And the wind screams "Mary" Will the wind ever remember The names it has blown in the past And with its crutch, its old age, and its wisdom It whispers no this will be the last And the wind cries "Mary" Cheers from Willy | |

Willy, I know he was very skilled in poetry as well - I didn't say he wasn't and neither inflict something like that. Sorry if something made you think that. Cheers my friend, Marius | |
= Marius, I was not inclining that you were unaware... | John Willy Kopperud [31.Oct.08 22:06] |
...of Jimi's fine way with words. I'm merely directing the spotlight to a lesser known, but nevertheless essential quality in that artist. So relax, my friend, my comment was more like a bonus for readers outside the staff! Cheers from Willy | |
= Thank you Willy! | Marius Surleac [31.Oct.08 22:15] |
I am relaxed my friend and I know you thought like that (the bonus for the readers) but initially I thought that I have said something wrong and I didn't know where. :)) I am glad you liked it and thank you very much for helping the readers with the bonus knowledge. Cheers friend, Marius | |
