Jimi Hendrix 1942–1970

Notes

James Marshall Hendrix, born Johnny Allen Hendrix, was born on 27 November 1942 and died on 18 September 1970. Both of those names are already stored as aliases on this Echo, and the years read 1942–1970. The summary names a guitarist and singer-songwriter regarded as one of the most influential guitarists. In 1992 the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducted him with his band, the Jimi Hendrix Experience. The same public introduction reports the hall’s description of him as arguably the greatest instrumentalist in the history of rock music. That description is the hall’s wording as reported there, not a ranking invented on this sheet. This note does not reprint a lyric, and it does not add a city, an army post, or a studio. The official site and the two Wikipedia articles below are the reading list. This research sheet is the page reached by jimihendrix.si.
