JIMI HENDRIX - ARE YOU EXPERIENCED?
When I was 15 years old I saw a middle-aged fat chap sipping on a can of bargain super strength lager at 10am and wiping his grubby hands on an old fading Hendrix T shirt, 'Dad', I said, 'Who is Jimi Hendrix?'
This kept me away from Hendrix' music for years but luckily anyone who gets through life without hearing his genious will be a rarity, and over time I discovered Hendrix for myself. He is an essential member of anyone's music collection. Jimi brought to life the raw spirit of the blues and created work of such originality that nobody has ever come close to matching the respect that he commands. This guy oozes laid back cool while sweating emotion and breathing fire. His first groundbreaking release is not to be missed at any cost. (Personally I will never be able to wear a hendrix T shirt though!)
