Jimi Hendrix

Jimi Hendrix reminds me of the movie School of Rock because when I think of that movie I can always imagine Jack Black screeching a song away and going hard on his guitar. Jimi definitely is one crazy awesome guy who I feel like changed rock and roll. Before him, no one really did crazy electric guitar stuff (or everyone out of the people we listened to in class). The only band that was closest to Hendrix's ability was Creme, but I didn't like them at all. I feel like Jimi keeps it fresh with his music and his guitar talent sets a new standard for rock and roll.  All rock and roll that I think of today, is about the insane keys and sound of the electric guitar, and Jimi Hendrix definitely brought that ingredient to the table. I feel like Hendrix was the turn to the more modern sounding Rock, or at least what I think of to be rock.

 
When I think of Jimi Hendrix I always think of some hard core rock band and that's Aerosmith to me. I don't listen to them, but I've heard a few of their songs and this song could be a bad example of it, but the point I'm trying to get at is that Hendrix's guitar work was shown in many bands after him.
