Mitch Mitchell was amazing. Great drummer, and as was already said - alot of jazz influence. Origional musician that guy. Truely a legend.

"Yeah, maybe on this board. I see too many people going crazy here for Jimmy Page, but compared to Hendrix, he's mediocre. Hendrix, every aspect of his playing is so amazing... his rhythm and lead..."

Jimmy Page was the top studio guitarist in the UK when he was 17 years old. Hendrix was great, but he was most definately not as good as Page. Just look at the Zeppelin and Yardbirds cataloge. The variety, musicianship, technicality... it's all there. I love Hendrix, but he simply cannot beat out someone like Jimmy Page.
