In celebration of what would be Jimi Hendrixs 80th birthday, this ultimate tribute to one of the most legendary musicians in rock-n-roll history will be published on his anniversary in November 2022. Although Jimi Hendrix lived to be only 27 years old, he accomplished more in five years than most musicians do in a lifetime. Songs like "Hey Joe," "Purple Haze," and "Voodoo Chile" are classic rock staples. His innovation on the electric guitar has influenced generations. This monograph, made in collaboration with his sister Janie Hendrix and John McDermott, is a large-format coffee-table book that includes essays, quotes, photographs, handwritten lyrics, memorabilia, and more.
Jimi Hendrix, 19421970, is a rock-'n'-roll legend. Although his mainstream career spanned only four years, he is widely regarded as one of the most influential electric guitarists in the history of popular music, and one of the most celebrated musicians of the 20th century. About Janie Hendrix: Janie Hendrix is Jimi Hendrixs sister and is in charge of his estate. About John McDermott: John McDermott is an author and filmmaker. Both Janie Hendrix and John McDermott work for Experience Hendrix, LLC, the exclusive copyright holder to all Hendrix material.
