Why do people make stupid comments ie He was high as a kite-- Jimi is not forgetinfg the words, hes in key, hes having fun with his showmanship and humor "kiss this guy". In less than 4 years,he created steller albums, 500+ concerts, built a studio, produced several bands including: Cat Mother, Love, Erie Apparant. A drug addict does not show this kind of drive, determination,ambition and a work ethic that most people do not achieve in a life time of 80 years. GIVE THE MAN A BREAK
You, sir, are absolutely right ! Very well put ! It´s time to kill the myth about all the drugs Hendrix was supposed to be doing. I think Hendrix liked to party, quite often drank wine and smoked some marihuana....and only occasionally experimented with some heavier stuff. He got high through music...
look here JIMI MADE THESE THINGS UP TO GET ALL THE ATTENTION AND YOU ARE STILL COMMENTING ON THAT AS WELL HE DID IT ALL ON PURPOSE SO PEOPLE WOULD TALK ABOUT HIM HE MADE HIS OWN STORY UP EVERY MINUTE OF IT HE DID NOT FORGET ANYTHING HE DID IT ALL ON PURPOSE AS YOU SE HE WAS ALWAYS SAY THAT AT MOSTLY ALL SHOWS OR DOING VERY STRANGE THINGS
@debashs I agree with you.Jimi Hendrix's drug usage was way over exagerated.He rocorded so much that they are still releasing his unheard music 40+ yrs later.He died accidentally taking an over dose of sleeping pills.Could have happened to anyone.alot of people around him at time believed he was nurdered by his manager.he did after all have a huge life insurance policy on Jimi.there are alot of questions surrounding jimi's death to this day
@smithdsmit Not so sure, in the film "Jimi Hendrix" his friends said he would always do double the drugs of everyone else. He was smoking hash and did two hits of Owsley LSD before his famous Monterey Pop performance. He cancelled a New York concert on the spot because he was too wasted to preform. Drugs were so common. It was a MAD magazine Alfred E. Newman "What, me worry?" era.
Ja ja very gut

Sounds like King Kong choking the life out of a T-Tex. I mean that in the most respectful way. Jimi was and still is Very Amazing!

That was his point, to create visual imagination through something you're supposed to only hear and ddance too. He was creating films!

He took LSD very often. At Woodstock he was also in the key and he was on LSD because someone poisoned the water with it.

young people are confused when they see a performer taking some freedom instead of mechanically playing the song start to end like a robot.
