Buckethead is more technical. But Hendrix was still better. Technical ability isn't everything.

This is pretty cool.

You can't say Hendrix's music doesn't have emotion, if you watch the man live you can see it in how he plays, he feels the song, he truly makes the crowd feel the amount of emotion in his playing. Hendrix is the only artist that has really emotionally hit me in such a way that I am just awe struck after the song is over.



You can just feel the power in this song.

who can you compare to Hendrix?
