HENDRIX would be the man standing last. Clapton had seen the footage from the Monterey Pop Festival, he couldn't attend it, and as he was watching Hendrix play the ending to the song "Purple Haze" his guitar was out of tune. Clapton yelled to the screen, "Now what are you going to do now?" Hendrix started to play "Wild Thing" and went wild playing behind his head and then played another song, "Strangers in the Night" and even went wilder. Then he smashed the guitar and the did his famous seen and set it on fire. From what I read after it was all done Al Kooper was quoted as saying, "What Jimi did with that song was so amazing, and boy, did he shut Clapton up." After the showing Clapton was speechless. So I think if you ask that question to Clapton even he would agree......HENDRIX!
