Yesterday i read an article in Rolling Stone Magazine about Jimi Hendrix and his last days and lost music.
It got me thinking... music's just not made how it used to be. Jimi Hendrix is by far the greatest guitarist of all time, a true Voo-doo child of his era. While having such following and success while alive, he became even more popular after his untimely death in 1970. A great loss to the world of Rock 'n' Roll for sure.

In the article it says a CD has just been released in 2010 called "Valley of Neptune," a collection of all his unreleased material. Even though he died more than 30 years ago his music still lives on strong. I wasn't even close to being alive in 1970 but my friends and I still listen to his music all the time as if he were in town, still alive and we were gearing up to see him in concert. I was brought up on all Classic Rock (which, by the way, i think is what music is really all about.. haha). It brings a smile to my face to still hear his music played on the radio and to see articles about him in magazines.
Hopefully Rock 'n' Roll artists of today can take a page or two from Hendrix's book and become a 2010 version of the Voo-doo child himself. Hendrix once said, "Music doesn't lie. If there is something to be changed in this world, then it can only happen through music." Personally, I couldn't agree more Jimi!
