hendrix is overrated by today's standards but nobody was doing what he did to the extremes that he did back then. ya gotta figure nobody had played like him before that. yay drugs.

lol @ yay drugs, hahaha

but no, i just mean i think he is overrated, in that he probably would not have the same reputation, were he white and right handed.
it's just an opinion, but back then, there was still a ridiculous amount of public racism, and i think Hendrix got alot of (maybe too much) credit for being a black dude in predominantly white rock music scene.

plus, people from that era had a strange fascination with left handed guitarists.....at least that's what i've gathered from people i've known/met who were around (and fans of his) when he was "in his prime"
