The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are you Experienced

Like most kids my age, I didn't start listening to Jimi Hendrix until after he was gone. I heard the older kids playing his music in the mid-70's and I really fell in love with this record when I made a brief attempt to play the guitar in th early 80's. I had the over sized Hendrix poster and the Hendrix live VHS that we wore out, but the funny thing is I never really learned to play any Hendrix. My guitar teacher was obsessed with Eric Clapton and used a lot of his songs as teaching tools. I guess that was for the best as Hendrix can't really be imitated.
