Amplified - Classic Rock & Music History

On this day (18th September) in 1970:
Jimi Hendrix (James Marshall) was tragically found dead in his London apartment after ingesting nine Vesparax barbiturate pills, which, combined with alcohol, led to a fatal overdose. May he forever rest in peace and power ☮️

RIP the GOAT, fuck the Hendrix estate, they’re still milking Hendrix recordings to this day, drop black gold. And I don’t think it’s a coincidence the only missing track on black gold is supposedly one where Jimi mentions his real daughter who couldn’t be genetically proven as his, but most likely is.

His manager got away with murder so sad. Electric Ladyland is amazing.

8 months before I was born and I was named James and ended up playing guitar, not like him though, not even a pale imitation.
