See I'd rather listen to Jimi, because his sound is so unique.

SRV would always say he wasn't anything compared to hendrix, and that he was essentially doing the same thing. maybe he was being a tad modest, but in a way i agree. SRV also drew from a lot of other influences, like albert king.
i think jimi was definately more revolutionary, but i also think he was much better in terms of pure musical talent. his music was more soulful. SRV wins in technique/technical skill.. he also played the thickest strings and fattest frets he could find - not easy. but jimi hendrix's music gets to me so much more.
