Sorry, tovarish , but I'm not going to your reeducation camp to learn how to "reason" about all the great things Uncle Joe, Chairman Mao and other commie cocksuckers have done for the world. I don't want any of that Kool-Aid.

The photos are an inconvenient reality which utterly negate your moronic arguments about the "good intentions" of communist regimes. The "dishonor" to the victims is propagated by fuckheads like you who regurgitate disgusting leftist lies and moral relativist bullshit about how the communists have done "good things too". Fuck you, asshole.

The fruits of Iosif Vissarionovich's literacy and health care program. Something for the left and SC to be proud of! Accolades indeed.

More guitarists cite Jimi as an influence. More artists cover Hendrix songs. Clapton was influenced by Hendrix, for God's sake. In fact, two anecdotes are appropriate here: 1. Clapton gave up playing the Crybaby wah-wah peddle for some time because Hendrix did it so much better. 2. Eddie sent a tape to Clapton back in the day (circa 1978) with his solos, eruption-style finger-tapping, etc. Clapton was not in the least impressed, and called it basically uninspiring, technical rubbish with no feel. Clapton was a huge influence on Eddie (who learned and memorized all Clapton's solos by ear). Jimi->Clapton->Eddie. The chain does not go Eddie->Clapton, and Eddie was in diapers when Jimi was alive. 'Nuff said.

You're delusional. Jimi was much more influential. He came first, which gives him a huge advantage in this area. More people listened to him, and he changed everything. His style of rhythm guitar is unbelievable. And he arrived at the right time - in the golden age of rock and roll and the 60's. Eddie was also very influential, but not as broadly nor with as much impact. Because he came later, at the "wrong time", and there was far less for him to change, to impact. As for concrete proof, there are far more covers of Jimi songs than Eddie. And nothing, nothing, that Eddie wrote can come close to Voodoo Chile (slight return)

That's picture is obviously staged. Only Brits have teeth that bad.

No, not HIM. BLACK BUSH. No, not THAT. THIS: There's nothing else to do with this damn weather. :-)

Hail, hail to the good times 'Cos rock has got the right of way So pick up your balls and load up your cannons for the 21 gun salute

Dru, one of your better ideas. "Hey, Rob, how's your head? How about a nice cold, greasy porkchop? You can almost smell that rancid odor now. Sounds good doesn't it?" Rob, "Aaaarrrrgggghhhh", as he runs to pray to the great porcelain god. I think the quote was more like: "How about a nice greasy pork sandwich served on a dirty ashtray?"

so you swing both ways?

It depends on the day.

I'm a misanthrope: I hate all people equally.

ibuprofen, water - and sleep - always worked for me. once your headache is gone, do 30 minutes of cardio. That helps as well.

that gives a whole new meaning to Dark Side of the Moon

Well I guess a lot of beginning guitar artists do play that Smoke on the Water lick... that's Blackmore, not Iommi Shows what I know. In my defense, I was never much of a Black Sabbath fan. It was always hard for me to take seriously any guitarist sharing a stage with Ozzy Osbourne. They shared the stage with Ronnie James Dio, Ian Gillan, and others as well...

Spanish Fly is a lot more interesting jam to play. As are most Randy Rhoads solos.

Seriously, if you've never been to electic ladyland, you should go sometime and Eddie van Halen isn't even in the same league as Hendrix, though Van Halen I and 1984 do rock, I'll give you that, kevbro Axis: Bold as Love
