    Quality: Very rough, but historic!!!


    Notes: On this day 38 years ago Jimi Hendrix left this Earth. I went through and compiled some tapes I had from that day and the following days documenting this historic and tragic event. Alexis Korner has some interesting things to say that turne out to be spot on about Jimi's legacy. To me Jimi was the most talented and coolest rock stars that ever walked this Earth. His talent was amazing and unassailable....this was not some rich kid who emerged from an art school, rather a poor kid who rode the wings of his talents to the top of the world. Maybe commenters can give a thought or two on Jimi...maybe you were lucky enough to see him play and want to share what that was like. Jimi, we miss you...

  2. While living in florida i befriended a former member (Drummer lead vocalist) of a sixties soul group `The Winstons`. Hendrix had taught his guitarist how to play guitar. He also told me that there was foul play involved in the death of hendrix.
