After 42 years of learing to play guitar, I've gone thru a Hendrix, phase when all I played was his stuff. Other infuences were Larry Carlton, Eric Clapton and other players ... Al Dimeola, Phil Keaggy, Hadley Hockensmith, Jeff Beck, Wes Montgomery, Still keepin the chops up having returned to my first love, MUSIC after near 7 years without playing. Just like riding a bike, you don't forget how.
