(SLIGHT RETURN)

They grow up and die so fast, don't they? Hendrix was just twenty seven when he died. If he were alive, he'd be seventy one. Just think of the wild shit he could have done. This is just a heads up about an upcoming PBS special that's on Tuesday night, a new one, Jimi Hendrix - Hear My Train a Comin'. A two hour documentary with unseen footage and what not. If you don't get PBS where you're at, it's being released as DVD.  Either way, here's some Hendrix stuff, bar pretzels really, but interesting to hear.  Heavy on the oddballs. Stevie Wonder on drums? Yes, and on another, backing Jayne Mansfield.

Hendrix, backing Buddy and Stacy, 1965. Check him out on the far left, doing his over the top thing at 1:48
