The founder of Rolling Stone thinks only white men are 'masters' of rock.

I thought we were talking about SRV?

And who would EHV or Tony say were their biggest influences?
Actually, the subject veered off into a discussion about Jimmy and your claim that rock guitar playing as we know it wouldnt exist without him.
 
There is NOTHING in Henredix's style that plays any part in Eddie Van Halens guitar style. If Hendrix never lived, youd still have Black Sabbath and Tony Iommi, who were FAR more influential to rock.
EVH has said he took the way he held a pick straight from Jimi.
 
The premise makes zero sense, without the black guitar players of old many white musicians would never have picked up a guitar.

Watch this long ass video and tell me what percentage of it he finger taps. Finger tapping was his signature style.


You are aware he has many more songs than just Eruption. Jesus man you sound like you read teen beat one time and think you have a clue about guitar playing. Have you ever picked a guitar and played something besides Wonderwall?

Jimi changed the way the guitar was played literally everyone who came after him was standing on his shoulders.

If you watched the video, youd realize that he plays a bunch of guitar riffs from his music, not just Eruption.
 
Which he didn't invent.

IMO EVH was a far better musician than SRV his playing sounded original and creative. SRV 's didn't
What did Hendrix invent? Playing with his teeth maybe? Thats about it.
