It only goes to show what a cool muthafucka Hendrix was. Emerson's work is so different from his, yet they've been compared on more than one occasion (just coz both showboaters with lotsa technique.)
But can you imagine the ego clashes? Keith and Jimi on stage trying to out-showboat each other? The volume wars as they keep cranking their amps ever higher to be heard over the other guy . . .
But if had kept Greg Lake from singing, it might have been worth it.
