40 Years Ago: Jimi Hendrix Died
Forty years ago today, rock guitarist Jimi Hendrix died in London of barbituate intoxication under mysterious circumstances.
I remember that day and the shock that many of my generation felt.
Hendrix is buried in Renton, Washington. At left, is a photo of Jimi Hendrix's grave that I took in February 2005.
The man may be gone, but his music is as popular as ever with new generations of fans discovering his genius.
