Hear my train a comin' : the songs of Jimi Hendrix

Books, Manuscripts
Although his activity as a recording artist spanned a period of just three years, from 1967, the year of his arrival in England from America to 1970, the year of his death, Jimi Hendrix created a body of work that has exerted a significant influence on a number of artists in the 20th century and beyond. A headline-grabbing, explosive performer, he is widely recognised as an innovative guitarist who broadened the vocabulary of his instrument through both his technique and daring use of technology. This book seeks to appraise Hendrix's legacy in different terms. His ability as a soloist is undeniable, but it is not necessarily the defining aspect of his genius. Le Gendre focuses on Hendrix the songwriter.
