Fabulous FRiday presents

JIMI HENDRIX

Born Johnny Allen Hendrix on November 27, 1942
in Seattle, Washington.
He was one of five children.

After initial success in Europe
with his group The Jimi Hendrix Experience,
Hendrix achieved fame in the United States following
his 1967 performance at the Monterey Pop Festival.

He is widely considered to be the
greatest electric guitarist in music history

Hendrix was considered one of the most
influential musicians of his era
despite mainstream exposure limited to four years.

Hendrix won several prestigious rock music awards
during his lifetime, and many more posthumously.

TRIVIA

In early life, Hendrix got into trouble
with the law twice for riding in stolen cars.

He was given a choice between spending two years in prison
or joining the Army.
Hendrix chose the latter and enlisted on May 31, 1961.

After basic training, he was assigned to the 101st Airborne Division
and stationed in Fort Campbell, Kentucky.

Private Hendrix received an honourable
discharge on the basis of
"unsuitability" on June 29, 1962.

Hendrix was well known for his unique
sense of fashion and wardrobe
and his Dylan-esque (c. 1966) hairstyle.

Early on September 18, 1970,
Jimi Hendrix died in London.

Hendrix might be a great guitarist, but watching him perform was painful! I guess it was the drugs, because he didn’t really make much sense....to me.... :)

Yeah, never did like watching him.
Drugs did to him what drugs have done to a lot of artist.
But to the music world and fans he was all that.
I liked many of his songs,
but there were some where he got totally lost in his drugged mind that I didn't like the sounds he got out of his guitar.

Good morning, Mayor.

Thanks for the GOOD WORD!

we need to be reminded that

"...But God doesn’t throw us away and start over. He redeems us and makes us better".

Happy Friday Everyone
Thank you for the thread, beachy.

Hope You Have A Great Weekend

Good morning dear ((HUGS))

Hey, I would think that 77 would require a sweater after being in the 100s.

Enjoy your FRiday and weekend.
