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....

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.

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.

[Classic Rocker]

Jimi Hendrix. He rules

[ZebraRampage]

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.

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

[Dyne]

Haha, Puppy Hendrix..
