Jimi Hendrix's greatness is unassailable.
Carefully researched, this beautifully illustrated edition is a thoughtfully written and curated look back at the too-brief life and career of the man many consider the greatest guitarist of all time. Seattle-based music journalist Gillian G.. Gaar examines Hendrix's upbringing in the Pacific Northwest, his service as an Army paratrooper, his role as a sideman on the chitlin' circuit, his exile in the UK, and his eventual reemergence in the US and the fame that followed him until his untimely death in 1970.
Featuring a selection of memorabilia and rare photography complemented by a beautiful design, this is the ultimate book tribute to rock's greatest guitarist.
