Jimi was a native on my hometown and is buried here. His family is here, sadly still fighting over his Estate/etc. Still, an amazing talent that wasn't around long enough. Great pick.

Happy MM!

The greatest guitarist who ever lived. I am listening to
'Crosstown Traffic' right now.

Fuji:
Jimi inspired many people over the years to do exactly that.



Moi:
He spoke softly but made one hell of a noise.



Java:
...and still is.



K9:
Thank you.



A.B.:
That era is littered with the good ones going too early.



Selma:
Oh Selma, you have just redeemed yourself... there may be hope for you and I yet. :)



Gypsy:
Great pics...

Now that's high praise coming from you Gypsy, thank you.



Aunty:
I agree... and I want those shoes.



Thank you all for your kind comments. Happy MM

The incomparable Hendrix. I nearly posted a link to his 'Hey Joe' for my MM but it had the extra 'e' :) Happy MM x
