STARBIRD -- my latest album of original music is now available!

[adwitiyadixit]

Meanwhile, my guitar stares at me and says, "This could be us but you ain't playing."

[andystark]

The better I get at guitar the more I realize how insane this is. You're disgustingly good. I've watched this well over 50 times over the past few years. Great stuff dude

[Nomanners]

It is unusual to see a Hendrix cover that displays this level of originality on Youtube (or elsewhere). Too often the approach to Hendrix covers is the note for note approach, showing little emotion or originality... Ironic given Hendrix's style... So well done sir. Hendrix would be proud indeed.

8 years later and Corey is still the best acoustic guitarist on youtube.

[theloniouscoltrane]

Rhythm and Lead playing
(all at the same time) while
singing with an acoustic guitar
is the best ever!
A one-man band!
And no Ed Sheeran loop station.
Corey Heuvel is exceptional!

[Poiuy]

The people who disliked this are the same people who probably are :“Real Hendrix fans“ who somehow don‘t get that directly copying Hendrix is NOT how to cover him.
Great job by the way!

[vb]

All i can say is...Hendrix would be proud

[clarencebarton]

The more I listen to this guy, the more I respect I have for him. He’s incredible

Me: What is this wizardy?

Me: Throws phone at the wall

[michaelbennett]

You got soul brother. Hendrix would be honoured by this version. Your guitar and vocals are top class!

[GiProHD]

This is one of the best covers I've ever seen

[Jerid]

I totally clicked on this thinking it would be a waste of time, and man was I wrong. Very well done!! Jimi would say "i dig this cats playing" ;)

[justanotherguy]

Love the acoustic hybrid version no effects just pure imagination, you are truly at the top of the guitar playing world, thanks for sharing.

[jimmysupafly]

This was phenomenal. Have to admit when I saw an acoustic I thought oooof those string bends are gonna hurt. Then he started singing and now I'm looking for these tabs.

[RhysMallon]

Best 5 minutes and 48 seconds I've probably ever spent on YouTube, infact not probably. Definately.

[evrencangündüz]

Sonra neymiş abi çok güzel çalıyosun, bazılarına tepe, dağ gibi gözükür. Aha bir gün bizden biri gelirse bırakıyorum... ahanda çalmak budur kardeşim.
Dude great job. God bless your groove and also your soul.

[TheRHSman]

Corey. I mean this from the bottom of my heart and I look you in the eyes.
Take your own songs and go be the best version of yourself. Your covers are tremendous but I am 100% sure your own stuff is just timeless.
YouTube will survive with out your covers

[reefgeorge]

I never could have imagined an acoustic version of this song that I would like but this is friggin' awesome. Well done sir.

[Dafuro]

There are people who play music with their minds, some with their hearts and others with their souls.
But this man, this man...





Plays it with his hands.
