jesus dude, you really are the most negative person in the world. he did a hell of alot more than "popularize the wah pedal". he created a whole new style of playing. he was an innovator. thats what people dont understand. I always hear people say "why the fuck does everyone think jimi hendrix was the best guitar player ever?". people dont get it. when people say he was the best they don't mean he was the best technical player, they mean he was the most innovative, soulful, and creative. and he did alot of acid 
Guitarists nowadays (or any musician) have so much more technology to aid them in their music. Hell, most aren't even decent musicians. They let computers make sound effects. They let computers do the drumbeats. All these so-called musicians are just decent with a computer. Jimi, SRV, Duane Allman, Jeff Beck, Clapton, Jimmy Page, Alvin Lee, Johnny Winter, etc. never had the benefits of computer-enhanced music. The late 1960s had some of the most innovative music since the Big Band Swing Era of the 1930s/40s. Youngsters seem to forget that we didn't have all this technology 40-50 yrs ago. Granted, there's been some good music put out since. I thought Punk was good in the late 70s...the 80s sucked with the Glam/Big Hair/Spandex bands...but Grunge saved the day, bringing rock & roll back to its roots, with Stone Temple Pilots, Nirvana, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, etc. Anyway, Jimi will always be #1 in my book!!

nah, music's just been truckin' along fine, duder.
nothing wrong with anything and "youngsters" like expanding their minds on new music, they don't often feel like they have to stick to the old for any facetious reasons such as "it was more what i like" and "it had more soul" or "it was more talent; these guys don't even play there own instruments!"
lol, that old adage doesn't apply to anyone outside of really generic and overwhelmingly undesirable music. anywhere where anyone is innovating is perfectly better music then Jimi Hendrix because we're not all living in delusions about what music "should be to everyone".
it's just not reality. it's not how things work.
only for some people, that are either stuck in the past, or for people who are too blind, stuck-up or in many cases, just simply haven't found out about, been turn in the right direction for, or looked into music that is equally satisfying for themselves.
alot of the time though, people are just stuck up because frame of mind for what they enjoy in music is so narrowminded they can't even see how people life what they like, when all they like is a very marginal amount of music.
