And the guy who wrote it couldn’t play it the way Hendrix did either.

“Jimi didn’t write ‘Hey Joe’.”

Nor was he one of the first 10 acts to record it.

/bingo

Zappa once said in interview that Hendrix hit his height with “Manic Depression”, and I used to think that was bonkers, but as I’ve gotten older I’ve begun to see what he means.

Sidebar: my list of fave Hendrix tracks include “Hey Baby” (originally on “Rainbow Bridge”, re-released as part of one of the titles from the family regime), but not “Hey Joe”.
