Like Hendrix, his dominating stage performance showed both decency and raw sex appeal with a dominating voice, captivating audiences around the world ("Muddy Waters", 2018). All these characteristics influenced Hendrix as a performer.]]> 2023-10-02 05:11:46 UTC https://padlet.com/1032244_3_2/8m4t5328q4lw0oc4/wish/2728001604 B.B.King 1032244_3_2 https://padlet.com/1032244_3_2/8m4t5328q4lw0oc4/wish/2728002200 King was a heroine in the development of blues. He played single-stringed guitar responses to his vocals whilst using a distinctive vibrato, with the use of microtones on both slide guitar and vocals. Like Hendrix and his blended genres, King created a fusion of blues, pop, and country that dominated the charts for years.

His style consisted of ringing major chords, which eventually became his trademark. He featured unusual microphone placement techniques, imaginative echo chamber effects, and overdubbing. His work became some of the most distinctive and influential work in rock music.

Diving into his Cuban roots, he mentored Gillespie in Afro-Cuban polyrhythms, modernising Afro-Cuban music. He later became a music director introducing several dance crazes, influencing the sounds of jazz and rock ‘n’ roll.

He used big bands to create a sound that unified many instruments into one voice.

(“Britannica”, 2023) After accidentally smashing his guitar on stage in 1964, the reaction of the audience gave him an irresistible urge to keep doing it. His stage presence and style influenced how Etheridge performed. ]]> 2023-10-02 05:26:16 UTC https://padlet.com/1032244_3_2/8m4t5328q4lw0oc4/wish/2728011683 Janis Joplin 1032244_3_2 https://padlet.com/1032244_3_2/8m4t5328q4lw0oc4/wish/2728012236 Joplin was a bold and spontaneous blues vocalist from the 1960s. Starting out as an unconventional “ugly duckling”, she transformed into a self-assured, sexually aggressive rock icon. Like Etheridge, her strength and intensity as a singer and performer broke the mould of how a “girl singer” should act.]]> 2023-10-02 05:27:11 UTC https://padlet.com/1032244_3_2/8m4t5328q4lw0oc4/wish/2728012236
