Jimi Hendrix Live At Berkeley Button
Hendrix helped develop the technique of guitar feedback with overdriven amplifiers.
He was influenced by blues artists such as B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Albert King, and Elmore James, rhythm and blues and soul guitarists Curtis Mayfield, Steve Cropper, as well as by some modern jazz.
In 1964, Hendrix's father told pioneering R&B producer Robert "Bumps" Blackwell that his son idolized Little Richard and desired to play in his band, although he was playing B.B. King-style blues at the time.
By 1966, following playing and recording with Little Richard, Hendrix stated, "I want to do with my guitar what Little Richard does with his voice."
