Jimi Hendrix Quiz: Guess the Song & Test Your Trivia
The Jimi Hendrix quiz is a guitar-tone test: the feedback, the wah-wah and the whammy bar name him before the vocal does. Guess the Jimi Hendrix song from 'Purple Haze', 'Foxy Lady' and 'Voodoo Child (Slight Return)', then test your trivia on the covers he owned, since his 'All Along the Watchtower' outran Bob Dylan's original and his Woodstock 'Star-Spangled Banner' rewired the anthem. Place it in a four-year run that ended at 27, and find out how well you know rock's greatest guitarist.

Uma carreira para explorar em quiz
The tone that gives him away (easy points)
Hendrix is the rare guitarist you can name from tone alone: the fuzz of 'Purple Haze', the swagger of 'Foxy Lady' and the wah-wah of 'Voodoo Child (Slight Return)' land before a word is sung. These are the quick points that open a round.
The covers he made his own (the Dylan trap)
Some of his signatures started elsewhere. 'All Along the Watchtower' is a Bob Dylan song Hendrix rebuilt so completely that Dylan adopted his arrangement, and 'Hey Joe' was a much-covered tune before him. Spotting the original author is where the quiz bites.
Woodstock and the live legend
The stage is half the story. At Woodstock in 1969 he bent 'The Star-Spangled Banner' into feedback and dive-bombs, and at Monterey in 1967 he set his guitar alight. A live clip can sound nothing like the studio cut you know.
Four years and the 27 Club
His fame lasted barely four years, from the 1966 Experience to his death in 1970 at 27, though he had spent years before that as a sideman backing other acts. With so little solo catalogue, the challenge is telling an early single from a late 'Electric Ladyland' track by ear.
