But I dont get it, I mean if this thread was " Which do you like better hendrix or cobain" i would say Hendrix by far, but he didnt start a huge ass movement. People were influenced by him but he didnt have as many FOLLOWERS as cobain. There is a differnce between followers and ppl being influenced. Nirvana spawned millions of bands and made other genres more mainstream. How was Hendrix more revolutionary than that? Yeah millions of people love his music, and millions are influenced by him but i can not think of a single one that played stuff sounding extremely similar. Thats why Cobain is more revolutionary, for one, he had something people could copy,and two he made sharper music trendy therefore pushing it into the mainstream. I can not find how Hendrix made that big of an impact.
