Hendrix spent more time praising and welcoming musicians than he did crapping all over them. So I think a lot of what is put together here is BS.
-
I personally spoke with Jimi at the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970 and he told me he specifically loved all the bands (and Motown) you mentioned. However, he also mentioned 5 things he really did HATE --- clickbait, posers, influencers, the internet and camera phone addiction.

Just for some perspective, Jimi Hendrix died on September 18, 1970. Led Zeppelin had only been around 22 months and Led Zeppelin III and IV had not been released. Likewise, Hendrix died before the releases of Pink Floyd’s Atom Heart Mother, Meddle, or The Dark Side of the Moon, and before Floyd’s big stadium tours with light shows.

If you read about Hendrix you’ll know this is total garbage.
-
Well if Zep stole from everyone ,they sure did know how to spend it.
-
You know your drug use is out of control when Hendrix thinks you’re too stoned and your behavior is inappropriate.
-
I guess lighting your guitar on fire isn't considered a gimmick....OK.
-
Hendrix was dead before Led Zeppelin's golden patch happened.
-
He didn't like Taylor Swift
-
Hnt : If yo want to upload videos , don't rely on those artificial A;I. voices , it sucks and brings the quality of your video's below freezing point
-
Strange that Jimi thought Motown music was lacking in genuine emotion… classic recordings like Dancing In The Street, Shop Around, Ball of Confusion etc are so emotionally charged they can move you to tears!
-
I was somewhat surprised Jimi hated Led Zep, The Doors, and Pink Floyd. so, whatever, it's his opinion...I hated The Monkees back then too, but today i think their songs are actually better than the bland crap they call pop music today.
-
This is bogus. I have lots of reservations about what he supposedly said.
-
His criticisms of LZ resonate with me even tho they're in my top 5 fave rock bands. The artists they "borrowed" from got paid eventually, but by then a lot of their lives was already in the past, and they'd deserved to get that money while they were still young. His criticisms of PF made sense at the time. Jim Morrison was certainly a drunken jerk at times. The Monkees were created as a TV band, nothing much should be expected of them, their biggest hits were written by others.
-
He would have liked Floyd and Zep if he had survived a decade more
-
I visited Jimi, at the time in LA's history that he lived in the Afton aparments and before I went to Vietnam.. Some of his friends called him Marshal Dillon, kind of after Gunsmoke. James Marshal Hendrix. Anyway as we sat in his living room he played. I could of swore he was playing like voices almost making his guitar sound like it was talking. He was that GOOD. I never saw him again and sadly he came to a tragic end.
-
The Monkees weren't really a band, they were a TV show about being a band.
-
The funny thing is that Pink Floyd and the Monkees toured with Hendrix. I can’t help but wonder who he would have listened to in this day and age. I’m guessing everyone who came out of the CBGB’s.
-
I wonder what Hendrix thought of King Crimson.
-
how strange many YT channels convey information from Long Dead musicians... you never knew him nor do you have any connection to this man
