Hendrix. Tricky. Early stuff for both. Without them, I wouldn't have bothered trying to make my own music. These two made me feel like I could do something important musically... not because these pro's weren't good, but because they didn't have a classical background.
Hendrix:
because, self taught, he took a regular guitar, flipped it upside down, altered the fingering, and yet still made music that I think is relevant today... awesome.
Tricky:
he made his first 2 albums using a crappy Yamaha QY10 as a recording tool. All he did in the studio was add vocals? And yet "Maxinquaye" became a platinum hit?.... awesome.
