I love Hendrix just as much as the next guy and he is an extremely influential guitarist, but he could be extremely sloppy and all over-the-place live. I believe SRV played Hendrix's Voodoo Chile better than Hendrix did and it's his song. Of course SRV would agree with you because Jimi inspired him and he was very humble when it came to guitarist he respected. He also watered down his playing when he played with his idols.

I hope you're not talking about this guy. Even Joni Mitchell could run circles around this dude on guitar. Yikes!
