About Me

Me, Myself, and I
James Marshall "Jimi" Hendrix (November 27, 1942 – September 18, 1970) was an American musician, singer, songwriter, guitarist, innovator, and cultural icon. Lauded by music fans and critics alike, Hendrix is considered by many to be the most influential and talented electric guitarist in rock music history. He achieved worldwide fame in 1967 playing at the Monterey Pop Festival, then headlined the iconic 1969 Woodstock Festival before his sudden death in 1970, at the age of 27.

A self-taught musician, the left-handed Hendrix played a right-handed Fender Stratocaster guitar turned upside down and re-strung to suit him. As a rock guitarist, Hendrix exploited the sonic tools of feedback and distortion to an extent that previous pioneers (such as The Kinks' Dave Davies, The Yardbirds' Jeff Beck and The Who's Pete Townshend) never achieved. He built upon the innovations and influences of blues stylists such as B.B. King, Albert King, Buddy Guy, T-Bone Walker, and Muddy Waters etc.

  • little wing

    Well, shes walking through the clouds
    With a circus mind
    Thats running wild
    Butterflies and zebras and moonbeams
    And fairy tales

    Thats all she ever thinks about...

    Riding with the wind

    When Im sad she comes to me
    With a thousand smiles
    She gives to me free

    Its alright, she says,
    Its alright
    Take anything you want from me,
    Anything

    Fly on, little wing

    Check out www.bebo.com/elpband. Jimi Hendrix joined this band as a side project but died bfore he could record or perform with them. Also Mitch Mitchell the drummer was considered to be the drummer for them. Wicked alternative band.
