But the picture is AI. Jimi was a lefty and played right handed Strats flipped over mostly.

this is being done because youtube rewards it by paying for views. one channel I noticed the other day had posted dozens of vids in just a week or so, most obvious fakes

I recall Frank Zappa carrying on about time signatures live and on records.

Maybe that inspired what may be a canned script. I don't know. The picture looks authentic.

I was in the audience for the Filmore concert when John Lennon and Yoko showed up released as a live album.

I'm kind of curious that Zappa and Don Ellis never appeared to have any kind of interaction. Don was doing odd time signatures -- including Balkan and Indian rhythms -- back in the 60s, and continued that for the rest of his life.
