r.i.p. jimi

the barman reminded me this a.m. that today's the day jimi hendrix checked out 38 yrs ago. my mom, who'd taken me to see the woodstock movie (bless her), came and picked me up from school to tell me the news. as i was telling teague the other night, when i first got are you experienced?, i couldn't even comprehend that some of those sounds were _gtr_. jimi changed the sound of _music_ as much as coltrane or stravinsky did. fly on, baby.
