I gotcha, but that's what everyone considers to be "the big deal" about him.

@BF, if you're trying to say that there are rock musicians who are entirely self contained, without any influences whatsoever, I can't agree with that unless I can be shown otherwise. And it's perfectly fine if Hendrix doesn't float your boat. But somewhere along the evolution of rock music, you won't find many players who's influences don't at least indirectly include JH. It's not insulting anyone for developing their own style, influence isn't automatically emulation.

Was thinking this a while back. 36 Chambers is great but I prefer OB4CL, Liquid Swords & Return to the 36 Chambers to the group debut. Not sure I could pick a single Ghostface album I like more than 36 Chambers. Gonna give Ironman a few plays.

Not sure if it is unpopular on here, but Bright Eyes is consistently boring and an artist I never wish to listen to again, even if he isn't necessarily bad.

Yeah, I listened to Digital Ash In A Digital Urn and just didn't feel it at all. I'm told it's one of their worst albums but I'm still not really in a hurry to check out their other stuff.

Now that you mention Bright eyes i remember seeing a great music doc about the omaha music scene (i think it was omaha) and Bright eyes was in it but i can't remember the name of the doc! ive been trying to find it for awhile now but had no luck.

But yea they are a little boring for my taste as well
