But thats just me..
Well without Jimi Hendrix, the guitar sound that everyone associates with "rock" wouldn't exist. I would think its really hard to overrate that. You might not like "Purple Haze" but it birthed a huge chunk of what would become 70s, 80s, and 90s rock - and that includes JY and Tommy Shaw - and to some extent, the prog rock keyboardist who approached the keyboard the same way Jimi Hendrix approached the guitar - which would include Dennis Deyoung.
