Dire Strait’s ‘Sultans of Swing’ Solo Played in the Distinctive Style of Jimi Hendrix

Dutch musician Laszlo Buring, who usually plays songs by other artists as Dire Straits, flipped the script and impressively performed Mark Knopfler‘s iconic guitar solo from “Sultans of Swing” as a Jimi Hendrix solo. Buring took inspiration from Hendrix’s solo on “All Along the Watchtower”.

It ain’t easy to get a grasp on Jimi’s sonic and melodic wizardry, but here’s an attempt. Molded the beat after ‘All along the Watchtower’ Hope you enjoy!
