Please enough with the greatest guitaristmusician of all time crap   Ive changed the opening paragraph to qualify the statement about Hendrixs greatness and influence  While its practically without dispute that he was great and that he was one of the most influential guitarists if not the most influential electric guitarist note the distinction this needs to be qualified Why Because like it or not there do exist very many genres of music which are as comparable as apples and oranges Great What about Andres Segovia John Williams Paco de Lucia Stanley Jordan Influential What about Les Paul Chet Atkins  See the problem I think that however the lead paragraph ends up reading it should carefully couch its use of these superlatives so as not to fall to the level of uncritical adoring fanzine talk This by the way from a confirned lifelong Hendrix fan who actually got to see him live once
