Jimi Hendrix

The most iconic, profound, inventive, masterful and downright best guitar player in the history of music. No one came close to playing guitar like he did. It was never about how fast or how well he played (even though he played exceedingly well). It was about the special connection he made through his guitar and his listeners/audience. In effect, the guitar was to Jimi what Excalibur would have been to King Arthur - A profound expression of the power within one individual. Hendrix did many things that made his music so meaningful. Amongst these he helped to popularize guitar feedback... a technique which was previously undesirable at the time, not to mention playing it with his teeth, executing mind- bending solo's, and even evoking a personality within the instrument itself: for example during his rendition of the Star Spangled Banner, where his guitar echoed the harsh nature of the Vietnam War through sound alone. He created a style of music which even to this day has remained unparalleled, and gave us one of the most awe- inspiring forms of music ever. Some of his most famous songs include Purple Haze, Voodoo Child, and his rendition of All Along the Watchtower. There will never be anyone like him again... and even if you did reach his playing standard, you still wouldn't obtain the expressionism, mind or soul he channelled into every performance. Long live Hendrix... we really could do with another time like yours in this day and age :/
Go watch Jimi Hendrix's version of the Star Spangled Banner on Youtube... and if those last few notes don't send shivers down your spine, then you might as well have no soul...

Hendrick

A smart, funny, and cute guy who is determined and works hard at what he does. Whether it’s school work or athletics. He is a great basketball player who has a bright future in the NBA. He can make you laugh whenever you’re feeling down and is a thoughtful person. Not to mention he respects tf out of women. He never call them Hoes, thots, bitches, etc. He has a soft side and can be sensitive. He’s a smooth talker with the ladies. He can be friends with anyone seeing as how he’s such a kind person. Also people call him ranch cuz he be dressin. So, all in all, yo boy Hendrick is basically the best person you can meet. Better than anyone named Jason.

Phil Hendrie

The almighty kicker of asses. He is God. I only wish i had 6.95 a month to subscribe to his bible. If you have not listened to him, you will probably go to hell. Every single night you will laugh too much.
And on the 6th day god created man. Then he rested whilst listening to KFI los angeles. After hearing his greatest creation, Phil Hendrie, he proceeded to laugh, and it was damn good.
