Jimi Hendrix- "Hear My Train Coming" On an Acoustic Twelve String

Jimi Hendrix playing an awesome and soulful song on a twelve string acoustic, which is about twice as hard as a Fender Strat, which is what he usually played. At the end, after "gotta leave this town," it cuts to a video of him in a car with some other hippies and he smokes a joint. So just look at something else when the scene cuts, but you can still listen to the song.

Well, okay, I listened to the song. And I think that each instrument has its own like....hardness, or difficulty, ya know? And since I don't play guitar....I wouldn't rly know if it's harder than the tocatta,LOL. But the tocatta is proving to be a bit easier than I expected! Which is a blessing.

I know what you mean. Toccata would probably be harder, I think, but it's hard to compare classical piano to blues guitar. The thing that would get me would be singing and playing.

LOL, yeah, I know what u mean. Like.....It's REALLY hard for me to sing while playing piano if I'm not playing the melody with the right hand,LOL. Something in my brain just can't click or something if I play harmony with the right hand. And seeing that guitar is pretty much all harmony, well....yeah, that'd be hard,LOL.
