Wow, what's with hypocrites lately?

I've already addressed the question...or did you ignore that, too?

I'm sure you saw the post, though, seeing as how I noticed your lengthy period of digging around in my profile, moments after my last reply to you. Heh. That was cute.

Everyone should listen to this. http://youtube.com/watch?v=hFKm3AEdG4w

Although I'm sure you have

Best solo ever???? I could never decide, but I love this. That video doesn't have the best sound quality though.

Judging by your [over]reaction to a completely innocuous comment, I have to say that you're coming off as a very insecure little man.

Michael, that's a great solo. Pink Floyd is great on so many levels.

And now, as long as we're putting other great stuff into the mix, time for something completely different:

Tommy Emmanuel is one of my favourite guitarists. Possibly the best fingerpicker around. This is his version of Classical Gas:

And of course, here is the "him having fun" version of that:

Finally, here's some bass improv by Billy Sheehan (Paul Gilbert jumps in near the end as well):

Not sure where this falls, since I don't know much about bass and who's the greatest at it and all that...

personally I think carlos santana, stevie ray vaughn, eric clapton, and eddie van halen are better guitarists than jimmy, just to name a few. maybe david gilmore too...

Holy ****! I met (Kind of) some one else who likes and appreciates Carlos Santana!

Anyway, lol, that is a very hard question. I guess Paige is better technically, but Hendrix has more soul, feeling emotion, and was constantly improving. Who knows how good he would have been if he had lived a few more years.

Yea dude, I love santana.

Shit I forgot to mention the doors... I think it was the light my fire solo that blew me off the face of the earth. I wasn't all the way there to begin with though. he may not be one of the best guitarists but that solo has been awesome awesome to me ever since that day.

I still think Hendrix is the best. Even though any teenager with a guitar can play most of his songs, he had a huge impact.

I need to stop listening to so much rap.

My biased decision goes to Jimi Hendrix The Legend.

Ah... Most people who like classic rock or just rock hate rap and vice-versa. But you know, back then rock was looked upon how rap is today. Whatever. I say listen to it if you want.

I know. I'm one of the few who like both haha. I also like a lot of other types of music though. Basically everything besides country, screaming stuff, and opera. Lol.

I meant I need to stop listening to so much rap because I miss rock. I don't listen to it enough anymore.

Hendrix, duh!


PURPLEEE HAZEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

Why exactly were you looking at my profile in the first place? How else would you have known what I was doing? You're just proving my claim that you're a hypocrite. And you're lying anyway, since I don't look at people's profiles.

How exactly was that an overreaction? I'm guessing you skipped over Universal Mind's comment. I wasn't replying solely to you, don't flatter yourself.

1. Quick Links > Who's Online.
It tells you who is online and what section of the forum they are checking out - including profiles. Nice try, though.

2. If you weren't actually looking at my profile (which you and I both know you were) you wouldn't even attempt to make the "hypocrite" argument.

Sorry. You fail. Let it go.

I was referring solely to the portion of your post that was directed at me. And yes, calling me a hypocritical elitist over a harmless youtube comment joke was an overreaction.

cheers

cough*Hendrix*cough
