guitar legend
I'm a guitarist, Jimi Hendrix was a musical role model for me, I studied his music like I was in college, I can really say I learned to play the guitar with freedom to create from Mr Hendrix

A nice set of tracks to listen , and to learn.

Hendrix soared in the short time he was around, what a loss
It's Jimmi
Some of his best. What more can you say?

An excellent collection...
An expanded collection of the Hendrix classics with a few excellent later compositions included.

In some cases, we all know the truth, e.g., Van Halen didn't write and first record "(Oh) Pretty Woman"; a guy with much more conservative hair and glasses penned and originally performed… more »
Icon: Jimi Hendrix
By Lenny Kaye
Jimi Hendrix stands at the apex of 20th century guitarists, atop the pyramid of a hundred-year span in which that simple stringed instrument became the defining sound tool of several musical generations. In one left-handed upside-down human, all the innovations and genres that the guitar helped engender came together in a solo career that lasted, surprisingly, less than half a decade. He bridged blues, folk, rock and jazz; acoustic filigree and electric feedback; showmanship, sprawling… more »
