Editor’s Choice: Stanley Jordan Plays Jimi at The Emelin Theatre

World-renowned guitarist and four-time GRAMMY nominee Stanley Jordan returns to the Emelin to channel the late, great Jimi Hendrix in his show called “Stanley Jordan Plays Jimi.” This is a tribute show, but it’s not pure imitation. Instead Stanley builds on Jimi’s legacy in a myriad of creative ways. As Stanley explains it, “This is my fantasy Jimi Hendrix concert if Jimi were still alive and playing today. By re-imagining his music and channeling his persona I try to bring that fantasy to life.”

Saw this show before the pandemic – amazing on so many levels. Amazing how great Hendrix was. Amazing how great Stanley Jordan is. Amazing what Stanley with the Hendrix songbook.
