Yeah me and a friend had a discussion about that once. We both came to the conclusion that even if hendrix was alive today he wouldn't be the same guitarist this day as he was before. Simply because he did have bad form and probably would have pushed his joints into arthritis. Then again he may have used his teeth and feet to play.

Yeah 2 yrs, you should be able to play Hey joe without troubles. Purple haze is alittle easier, especially the intro which is something everyone should know. I always say play what you hear and like, whatever it is.
