I do play instruments, and I appreciate his skill on the guitar, but at the end of the day I can only enjoy a song if it sounds good. No amount of appreciation can change that. Likewise, I appreciate the skill that it takes to perform classical music, but it's not terribly enjoyable to me. There's just something about it.

Yeah, to be honest I feel the same way about classical music. Doesn't stop me from having it on the radio when I drive though. It doesn't stop me from playing it either. I totally get what you're saying though.

gordonz88, I've listened to more Hendrix songs, and I've changed my mind, I sort of like his music now.

Haha, thanks for the followup. I try to be open minded about music and by extension I don't ever feel "you don't like what I like? How could you!!", so don't think I felt that towards you. Also, Hendrix is by no means my favorite artist either. More of a guitarist that I aspire to be, at least when I'm not on the classical guitar.
