Are you experienced?

The album that ive been listening to as of late is the debut album by jimi hendrix ,The Jimi hendrixs experience: Are you experienced? It is the only the second rock album that ive ever listened to (appeptite for destuction the other one) and this one is by far superior. Jimi hendrixs guitar skills are just unexplainable and the fact that he uses feedback to his advantage is even better. If you heard a modern guitarist playing with feedback at a concert, youd probably cover you ears in disgust. The drummer in the band, Mitch mitchells is also a really good drummer but the fact that he played with jimi largely overshadowed his career and talent. So far my favorite songs off the album are: Third stone from the sun, red house and fire. All the other songs are great but in these particular ones, the guitar is mainly showcased. In my opinion i consider hendrix one of the if not the greatest guitarist of all time, and he died (or was killed) way to early.
