Talk:Majek Fashek

Jimi Hendrix
I question the Hendrix influence. Hendrix was heavily influenced by the blues and I don't hear the resemblance in the guitar playing. The guitar playing sounds more like Bob Marley's guitarist. In my personal opinion someone just put it there and it should be removed. I'll take it out.
