I dont even think this is a contest.

Jimi Hendrix, he lived in Burnaby as a kid. Some of you dont know where that is, so i'll fill you in ( Its in Vancouver) score....

Well..there are still a few of us that like Creedence. Not sure if anyone but me likes them more than Hendrix..but whatever.

I thought he grew up in Seatle... I was in the American military after all...

Jimi Hendrix is truely phenominal... Love that guy. Have all of his CDs, several posters, and other memorabelia. Awesome guy.

I never said he grew up in Vancouver. I said he lived in Burnaby with his aunt. Ok, i didn'y say the "lived with his aunt", but i am now, so poo on you. ;) :p

Early in the evenin’ just about supper time,
Over by the courthouse they’re starting to unwind.
Four kids on the corner trying to bring you up.
Willy picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp.

Chorus:
Down on the corner, out in the street,
Willy and the poorboys are playin’;
Bring a nickel; tap your feet.

Rooster hits the washboard and people just got to smile,
Blinky, thumps the gut bass and solos for a while.
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out on his kalamazoo.
Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo.

Chorus

Chorus

You don’t need a penny just to hang around,
But if you’ve got a nickel, won’t you lay your money down?
Over on the corner there’s a happy noise.
People come from all around to watch the magic boy.

Jimi Hendrix. He rules

Re: Old Bands Round 1 Creedence Clearwater Revival vs. Jimi Hendrix
 

It's not a shut out though..CCR is still in there. But Hendrix will most likely win. He's going against The Beatles in Round 2 though, so all you Hendrix fans should watch out.

Re: Old Bands Round 1 Creedence Clearwater Revival vs. Jimi Hendrix
 

Haven't gotten into Hendrix yet so I shall vote for Creedence whom I like a fair bit.

Re: Old Bands Round 1 Creedence Clearwater Revival vs. Jimi Hendrix
 

Haha, Puppy Hendrix..

Re: Old Bands Round 1 Creedence Clearwater Revival vs. Jimi Hendrix
