About this listen

A quarter of a century after his death, Jimi Hendrix's popularity is undiminished, his place as the preeminent electric guitarist of the age unrivaled. Back in print, with a new introduction, a new epilogue, and an updated discography, The Jimi Hendrix Experience gives the whole story of his legendary life and career, the virtuosity and madness, the genius and the rush to self-destruction, as well as the fierce ongoing battle for control over his estate that has been waged since Hendrix's death.

I enjoyed this. I hadn't heard a lot of the story before. The narration is a bit dated with some amusing accents but didn't detract from the story. Worth it if you are a Jimi fan .

A good overview

ive just finished this, its very "of its time" i wasnt expecting the voices the narrator did for people. so avoid if people doing dated impressions and accents is going to offend you.

the information is also quite out of date as i think the book was from the 80s and is still in the Myth making process.
its quite a good book though, with a decent overview of the Hendrix story.

it might be worth trying to find a more recent one, as loads more information has come out since this was written

Very dated, but informative

Knowing very little about the life and legal battles of Hendrix I was fascinated by this story however the writing is poor and the performance is worse in doing offensive accents of people. Worth a listen seeing as it’s free but I’m sure there’s better works out there

Amazing story written and performed awfully
