If you like it, I have no authority whatsoever to tell you that you are wrong. It really is a question of taste. Just don't expect too many people agreeing with you when you try and claim that Buckethead is better than Jimi Hendrix.
I think a lot of Hendrix is just the name. I know he was a great player for his time but if it was Hendrix playing those songs people would be falling over worshiping him. I've done blind tests with people and have found out this is true. You show someone a great song and before you show it to them you say "Hendrix, Clapton, Eddie Van made it" and they go all crazy. It's more of a psychological thing.
