Jimi Hendrix

    27. listopad 1942 – 18. září 1970

    Jimi Hendrix byl americký kytarista, zpěvák a skladatel, který je považován za jednoho z největších a nejvlivnějších kytaristů v historii rockové hudby. Svou hudbou, která čerpala z blues, R&B a soulu, posunul hranice kytarové techniky a využití nahrávacího studia. Hendrix experimentoval s efekty jako zpětná vazba a fázování, čímž rozšířil zvukové možnosti rockové hudby. Jeho inovativní přístup a jedinečný styl zanechaly nesmazatelnou stopu v hudebním světě.

      Kniha sestavená z autentických dobových rozhovorů a deníkových záznamů pomáhá vyvrátit spoustu mýtů a polopravd, které o Hendrixovi kolují, a předkládá ničím nepřikrášlenou osobní verzi jeho životního příběhu. Nejde ani tak o popis reálných událostí, jako spíše o zkoumání umělcovy vnitřní cesty a jeho názorů, které se postupem času proměňovaly a vyzrávaly. Díky této duchovní pouti, která tvoří jádro knihy, mají čtenáři možnost poznat skutečného Jimiho Hendrixe, geniálního amerického kytaristu, zpěváka a skladatele, který zemřel v pouhých osmadvaceti letech.

      A L.A. Times Non-Fiction Hardcover Best Seller Hendrix on Hendrix includes the most important interviews from the peak of Jimi Hendrix’s career, 1966 to 1970, carefully selected by one of the world’s leading Jimi Hendrix historians. In this book Hendrix recalls for reporters his heartbreaking childhood and his grueling nights on the Chitlin’ Circuit. He jokes with the judge and the jury on the witness stand, telling them that the incense in his bag was for hiding bad kitchen odors. He explains to an American TV audience that his concept of “Electric Church Music” is intended to wash their souls and give them a new direction. And in his final interview, just days before his death, he discloses that he wants to be remembered as not just another guitar player. In addition to interviews from major mainstream publications, Hendrix on Hendrix includes new transcriptions from European papers, the African-American press, and counterculture newspapers; radio and television interviews; and previously unpublished court transcripts—including one of the drug bust that nearly sent him to prison.Though many respected books have been written about Hendrix, none have completely focused on his own words. This book is as close to a Hendrix autobiography as we will ever see.

      Jimi Hendrix was such an extraordinary guitarist, it can be easy to forget that just as much passion, soul and precision went into his lyrics. Inspired by Bob Dylan, Hendrix was a fearless lyrical innovator, willing to let his imagination guide him to landscapes of words hitherto unexplored within the realms of pop music. This extraordinarily personal book includes numerous examples of Jimi's handwritten lyrics, often scribbled on hotel stationery, and photos of Jimi accompanying every song. From the existential euphoria of "I Don't Live Today" to the elusive beauty of "Little Wing" to the psychedelic blues of "My Friend" to the otherworldly "1983 (... A Merman I Should Turn to Be)," the lyrics of Jimi Hendrix remain among the greatest in the pantheon of rock, infused with the same inventiveness, virtuosity and courage that informed his guitar playing. Readers will of course also thrill to see such Hendrix classics as "Purple Haze," "Foxey Lady," "Voodoo Chile," "The Wind Cries Mary," "Dolly Dagger" and "Are You Experienced?". Jimi Hendrix: The Lyrics is sure to be one of the leading gift books of the season and a perennial favorite for Hendrix fans for years to come. Hardcover with full-color and b/w photos and illustrations throughout.

    • Jimi Hendrix is still widely revered as one of the most gifted guitarists in the history of rock. His fluency on an electric guitar was breathtaking, and he had a way with words that somehow paralleled his music. Fortunately, Jimi gave many interviews during his short life and this text contains many quotes from some of them.

      inch....this work is likely to become a standart work very quickly and is to be recommended to all schools where recorder studies are undertaken inch. (Oliver James, Contact Magazine) A novel and comprehensive approach to transferring from the C to F instrument. 430 music examples include folk and national songs (some in two parts), country dance tunes and excerpts from the standard treble repertoire ofBach, Barsanti, Corelli, Handel, Telemann, etc. An outstanding feature of the book has proved to be Brian Bonsor's brilliantly simple but highly effective practice circles and recognition squares designed to give, in only a few minutes, concentrated practice on the more usual leaps to and from each new note and instant recognition of random notes. Quickly emulating the outstanding success of the descant tutors, these books are very popular even with those who normally use tutors other than the Enjoy the Recorder series.
