Jimi Hendrix
Of all the artists to emerge in the late 1960s, none inspired greater awe than Jimi Hendrix. After touring with numerous R&B bands, the guitarist moved to London in 1966 and assembled the Jimi Hendrix Experience. His U.S. return at the Monterey Pop Festival, an intense star-making performance, began a rollercoaster of fame, drugs, and musical triumph that ended with his death at 27. In his short lifetime, Hendrix completed three remarkable studio albums and brought a fire and emotion to rock music that no one had heard before, leaving the world to wonder what he might have done had he had a little more time.

    Funny that Jimi Hendrix is known for so many covers of other artists: like Bob Dylan "All Along the Watchtower." He really did make the song his own. Hedrix was the master of distortion and feedback he influenced so many artists. Hendrix has a place in history as argueably the best. If he had lived a full life............ Who knows what we would have heard.

    i'd almost forgotten how good star spangled banner was, until seeing the Kronos Quartet @ this year's WOMAD festival in the UK when they played it via some electronic trickery on violins / cellos - mind blowing (better than skunk, man!)
