Jimi’s tragic passing was an absolutely shattering experience for all who loved him & his incredible music… it was as if your closest friend or one of your family had died… that was the depth of grief we felt. I’m 73 now, and I’m still missing him every day.
Jimi changed my life with his incredibly sublime music that captured my imagination and his message of peace love and brotherhood that stole my soul. But he told us what life was all about with his Beautiful song "Drifting" of Cry of Love. The remake is a disgrace that they put out changing the beginning etc. He got no respect in life or after he passed. So,... Jimi was by all counts a musical prophet for only being connected to the other side in the manner he was could you possibly do what he did,..period end of story. He had a heavenly touch on guitar whether he was playing Machine Gun or something like Drifting or May This be Love,...MY GOD,...... is "May This be Love" just music fit for the angels. Sublime touch. I'm 72 and still listen to him constantly for no other musician touches me in the way my brother Jimi does.
During his autopsy, they noticed his stomach was filled with wine yet there’s was no alcohol in his blood. They said his hair and clothes were filled with red wine. His manager was a piece of shit with connections to mafia , and Jimi was gonna leave him . The manager made more money from his death.
Thought this for years , Plus the girl who was with him that night " Monika " her story never added up and kept changing until she took her own life. Plus Jeffery never went to his funeral i wonder why.
@@brandonterzic Yeah exactly , He didn't go into the church there for he didn't go to the funeral, He watched the coffin go into the church then drove off. very strange indeed.
@@celephais5748 Yeah i see what you are saying and normally i don't believe them, But i've been a life long fan of Jimi and there was motive, He was trying to leave his contract with Jefferey plus Jimi was getting very political at that time. He also knew it was coming maybe Jefferey said if you leave you're a dead man, How else would Jimi know he wouldn't make it to 28? . Plus you don't get wine in your lungs and hardly any in your blood stream when it's an accident. Food for thought. x
Im 63 yrs.old To me Jimi Hendrix will always be if not the most creative & inspiring individuals that I have ever had the privilege of living in the same time era.
Over the years the media portrayed him as a drugged out maniac. Years ago I was surprised to find out he was nothing like that and that before he passed he was at odds with the industry and was taking a much needed break from the chaos. If you look into it his death was very suspicious.
The atmosphere back then..I was a kid, but that post-assassinations era-it was hyper repressed. The war machine that had taken over US govt. That jedgar-fbi/Dulles CIA era. Jimi drew such attention, he would’ve been a huge threat, as he held youth enthralled. Bear in mind-no media like present-day. It moved slower.
He was murdered. Imagine having such a gifted soul in our presence and he gets taken out by low life's. His music and lyrics changed my way of thinking and my direction in life at 20 back in 1972. 72 now and I still listen to him all the time. No one before him, while he was here, or yet to come will ever possess the touch he had. Whether playing lead or rhythm,.....his playing will remain light years ahead of all,..... till the end of time,...period,...end of story!
I have to disagree. For many years i didn't know what the pills he took the night he died were. As soon as i found out that it was a barbiturate i said well no wonder. Mixing that with alcohol is deadly.
Machine Gun is like THE most astonishing work of creativity I've ever encountered. And I mean out of ALL art, not just music. Castles Made Of Sand is high up there on the list also. But MG was improvised live with no studio enhanced rework. Just amazing
"If I don't meet you no more in this world, then I, I'll meet ya on the next one and don't be late, don't be late" - Jimi Hendrix "I won't be late, I promise" - #1 fan!!!
He had already told his friends, 'When I die, just keep playing the records.' Jimi had already had a premonition that he would soon die, and that red wine would be involved.
His lungs were filled of wine as well. Like some one holding you down pouring wine down your throat while being passed out. A year a 2 later Jeffery died in a plain crash! What goes around comes around!
@@LeftyandFriends I've seen hour long studies on this,..tons of his friends talking about it,...I know the history and I believe what the emergency room doctors and techs said about wine flooding out of his lungs when they rolled him over. RED wine which he did not drink. So I don't believe Oswald shot Kennedy nor do I believe things just because I'm "suppose" to when there is "significant" evidence against what is pushed by those in power. You have no idea how corrupt this world is and what happens when "power" gets involved in publicity. You believe what you want and I'll do the same.
For me, Jimi is still the most advanced human being of the 20th century. He played the music of the spheres. He had a direct connection to another dimension. His death wasn’t an overdose or accident. He was killed and he could sense it was coming.
Oh, sure... He puts people like Isaac Asimov into shame (irony). Obviously Im a big Jimi Hendrix fan since I was little, but he was nowhere near to be "the most advanced human being of the 20th century..." And he would agree with that statement xDxD
@@gabrielp9646 Maybe Kurt Godel! But, if music is Math, the improvisational invention of Jimi’s playing was other worldly. I cite the version of Red House from the In The West album. It’s blues, but I’ve never heard anything, by any guitarist that comes close. Most people have never heard this, because it’s a bit obscure. Give it a try
@@gabrielp9646 Obviously? Funny, I didn't take that from your entry. Also, Isaac Asimov doesn't do shit for me. Jimi, on the other hand; has been by my side for 45 years. So, in MY mind, Jimi is way more advanced.
Jimi was really special and almost other worldly to me. I have read many books about him and I don't understand what happened to him .It may have not been a accident. He had a lot of users and evil managers etc..
Jimi came to me in a dream one night. While cycling through Europe in 1977 I had a short dream so vivid that I could not return to sleep. A phone rang, I answered, and it was Jimi, "Your mother has had a heart attack." I called Australia the next morning and was told mum was ok. On returning home to Australia12 months later, I was told mum indeed had had a heart attack and was in hospital at the time of my call. I was 18 when he died and I remember the tears rolling down my cheeks when I was told.
At the final few weeks of his life, Jimi was becoming evermore weary and paranoid about the future. His problems were compounded by the excessive touring, pressures and expectations, and just his willingness to change his new direction. He was just surrounded by snakes and leeches, trying to get a piece of him.
I’ve seen my whole life, unfortunately I see it from the point of view of being a child so I interpret future stuff as something that happened in the past and shit gets all fuckn confusing
Jimi was my Hero, he died 200mt from where I was sleeping in Ladbroke Grove, London....I still remember the day, it blew me and my young new wife away in sorrow.
Best friend predicted his own early death. He was a talker. He called me one night not wanting to talk, just to hear me. Massive heart attack the next day.
THATS HEAVY BRO.ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO A FRIEND OF MINE HAD A HOMELESS FRIEND.I MET HIM,HE WAS COOL GUY IN HIS LATE 60s THAT LIVED IN A TENT.AND ONE DAY MY FRIEND WAS IN HIS FRIENDS TENT AND WAS TOLD ABRUPTLY GET OUT HERE NOW MY FRIEND THOUGHT IT WAS SOME KIND OF HIM WANTING HIS OWN SPACE SO HE LEFT.BUT AFTER HE LEFT HIS FRIEND DIED.THIS GUY TOLD MY FRIEND TO LEAVE BECAUSE HE KNEW HE WAS GOING TO DIE AND WANTED TO BE ALONE.ANYWAY,JIMI WAS THE BEST EVER
I can't think of anyone who's predicted their own death being wrong about it. I recall my older brother waking me up to say "goodbye" (as though it would be the last time he did so) when I was a teenager--he was going camping and ATV riding. He ended up dying at age 33 and left a wife a 3 kids behind. His wife later told me that he had mentioned to her several times that he'd always known he would die young. Jimi was also right in predicting his upcoming passing away. That's what I believe.🙏
Most healthy people do not memorize dates to things that happen to them, and they especially don't remember things that happened to someone else 50 years ago. If he got the dates correct it would be far more suspicious then if he got them wrong. Because if he made them up he would have fact checked before hand but if he was being honest and just relying on memory these date discrepancies are exactly what you would expect.
Arthur Rimbaud was Jim’s favorite poet. There was an old story that gunrunners were out to kill him. So Rimbaud faked his death, left Paris, and went to Africa. And lived there until his death at the age of 90. Did Jim do the same thing? “Remember when we were in Africa.” ~ Wild Child, 1969 On the morning of July third, a man claimed he saw Jim Morrison board a plane at the airport. That plane went to Africa. Jim had told friends, “Brian, Janis, Jimi - you’re drinkin’ with number four”. Jim had heard the “Paul Is Dead” story. On the anniversary of Brian Jones death, did Jim fake his own death, and split to Africa, telling Pam he would send for her later? "Last words, Last words out." ~ Those were the last words Morison wrote in his notebook in Paris. So was it Premonition, Suicide or Splitsville? “I’ve never been so broke that I couldn’t leave town… I'm leavin' town on the midnight train… I’m a Changeling… see me change" ~ The Changeling, 1971 According to Alain Ronay: “I returned with them to Paris and moved into the apartment. Pam had her own life entirely. She wasn’t always around, but for the whole of June I lived with Morrison, practically 24 hours a day. I won’t deny he was a dark and complicated person, or that Pam was a basket case. But strike the fact that Jim was despondent, or drug addicted, or terminally depressed. He was living his dream, and that had nothing to do with rock. He was delighted at the success of L.A. Woman, but his pleasure lay elsewhere.” Likewise, Chauvel did not believe Morrison was in the club to buy drugs. “He didn’t need to buy in there. I never saw him take drugs, but he was always alcoholised, heavy on his words, a bit emotional. He’d be silent then he’d get up and say something really loud. You could see in his eyes, he had something important he wanted to say with a lot of energy, but it wouldn’t get past his mouth. It went through his eyes for a moment. That was it. He was fed up. He was not in a good place.” “The first official who saw Morrison’s dead body was Alain Raisson, the French fireman/paramedic… he confirms the story of his arrival at the apartment with a team of five. The body was warm, so the team hurriedly tried to revive the singer. “We carried him onto the bed, to do cardiac massage,” he says. “We tried to revive him and failed. It was a short, intense, very real and brief encounter.” The warmth, they realised later, had come from the still warm bath.”
“The doctor who arrived a few minutes later was amazed when told that the man dressed in a Moroccan gown was only 27. “HE LOOKS MUCH OLDER. I WOULD HAVE SAID A 57 YEAR-OLD,” the doctor exclaimed. He was happy to suggest that the patient had died of natural causes. Heart failure, possibly brought about by respiratory problems, was his verdict. No need for an autopsy. When Bernett wrote his book he contacted Raisson and the chief paramedic. “The fireman told me he knew Morrison died much earlier. He said ‘This guy’s been dead for a couple of hours, at least’.’ The police commissioner told me the same thing. ‘We knew there was something wrong with the story’, he said. ‘But, look it’s summertime and I’m going on vacation tomorrow’. He wanted to wrap it up quick so he signed the papers. He didn’t believe the story he was told in the apartment. He said it was strange and phoney, but he let it go.” By 9am that Saturday the local police were swarming all over Rue Beautreillis and a small crowd of onlookers had gathered on the street. Courson and Ronay managed to leave the apartment on two occasions: to contact an undertaker, and to secure a Death Certificate at the Town Hall - much to the Chief of Police’s annoyance. Before he arrived, Pamela managed to flush her stash of heroin down the toilet and burnt a selection of Jim Morrison’s letters and notes. “Why?” she was asked later, as the grate smouldered. “THEY MUSTN’T READ THIS... THIS STUFF,” she announced.” So if Jim left any message of leaving town alive - Pam destroyed it. James Douglas Morrison’s final notebook read: “Regret for wasted nights & wasted years - I pissed it all away - American Music”. “Last words, Last words. Out”. To quote Ray Manzarek: “How do you even know Jim was in the coffin? How do you know it wasn’t 150 lbs. of f ing sand?”
I last saw Jimi Hendrix at the Swing Auditorium in San Bernardino late June 1970. It was just a few months before he passed over. He looked gone that night. I told my friends he didnt have long and looked dead
Ya, strange but I guess it wasn’t an unlikely picture at the time. I talked to someone who saw him at the Atlanta Pop Festival in 1970 and they said nearly the same thing: he looked like he didn’t have much time left. Him and friends made the comment to each other at the show. I think maybe at this point in the game he was overbooked and really exhausted. Awesome you were able to see the concert in San Bernardino by the way.
There's a video on YT of a young lady interviewing her grandmother who spent Jimi's last day alive with him and Monnika Danneman. Jimi and Monnika spent part if that afternoon with the now grandmother who was in her early twenties at the time, a young male English aristocrat, and another young lady. They had invited Jimi and Monnika to come hang out with them at the wealthy man's mansion. The now grandmother said that Jimi was relaxed and lovely, but Monnika was uptight, unfriendly, and restless. She later saw Jimi and Monnika arguing in the garden of the home. It appeared that Jimi was trying to get away from Monnika but she refused to separate from him. Also, Jimi told the lady who recounted this story that he looked forward to playing the guitar with her in the near future, once he learned she had a guitar. I believe Jimi felt he would die soon and was exhausted, but it's too bad he couldn't have been with someone other than Monnika when it happened. She seemed to have forced herself upon Jimi. Sad.😢
There are several photos from the day before he died, in a garden, having tea. They're supposedly taken in a hotel's backyard garden. He looks pretty content, smiling with his black strat, picking flowers, holding a flower basket. I like to think of him like that on his last day, ... happy, in a sunny garden.
My Dad met Jimi in 1969 at Madison Square Garden. The whole encounter lasted about 15 seconds, but they spoke and shook hands. My Father saw Hendrix about 6x, MSG, Woodstock, Atlanta Pop Festival, and multiple times at the Fillmore East. My Dad saw everyone in those days and he said without question that Jimi was the very best, the Babe Ruth of rock guitarists. Back then as now, many young people thought they were going to die. Many of them even had death wishes. I don’t believe for a second that Jimi truly knew he was going to die. What I do believe is that Jimi burned the candle at both ends and he was running out of gas. I think that sort of superstardom makes one think, where the hell do I go from here? While I respect Mike’s experiences, I don’t think Hendrix truly knew he was going to die young beyond what most people think at 27. I think Hendrix was very spiritual and in-tune, but he couldn’t have foreseen dying by asphyxiation on his own vomit (if that’s how he really died). Granted the cause of death would have been irrelevant, it would be the foreshadowing of death he saw that mattered. I think Hendrix was often exhausted and totally out of energy. I think he knew he couldn’t keep it up. RIP Jimi.
Mike's going on about his "mothers" in an interview about Jimi Hendrix as though it had any baring on anything. Dude's zonked out. Wouldn't take his word for very much. Clearly a super nice guy but he's quasi out of touch.
@morriypoulsen1238 I can't tell you how many people at that age say the same thing, and nothing ever happens. It just happened to sadly come true for Jimi.
If you listen to the lyrics of Georgia blues he’s says ‘I was born in Georgia 27 years ago’ and ‘I don’t think I can go on anymore’ , ‘goodbye everybody’ . That’s so eerie to me
His dates are a little off. Hendrix flew to England at the end of August to play the Isle of Wight on 8-31-70. He played a few more shows in Europe in the first 2 weeks of Sept and returned to London several days before his death on September 18th. He couldn't have been in New York 4 days before he died, He'd been overseas for at least 3 weeks.
Sounds more like Hendrix was simply referring to a career change and not revealing a death prediction. "I don't know how much longer I'll be doing what I'm doing", fits in with all of the accounts of him by that time being sick and tired of the music business due to being worked like a dog by his Manager. So, he's pondering a change of direction which takes him out of that situation, but isn't sure yet how or when that will happen so doesn't talk in specifics. Bear in mind he was at the time of the conversation one of the biggest Rock Stars on the planet, one of the highest paid, and was tied into that job with contracts and commitments. That's not something he could just walk away from on a whim no matter how much he may have desired it. "I don't know how much longer I'll be needing clothes". Bear in mind he's talking to the guy who designs his stage outfits. The clothes he wears when *performing* on stage. Which would seem to confirm him considering leaving the music business as a performer - because he'd then have no more need for custom made stage clothes.
I’m not saying he wasn’t murdered, but what u said is 100% facts, I got the sane thing….like, he said “Jimi told me three things”, then he names those two nothing- burgers, & im thinking, “ok, the third thing must be crazy”, & then he forgot the third thing, lol…..yeah, I totally agree.
I knew Jimi very well. I met him when I was 14. I saw him driving to St Pete, the night before he headed to the UK. He invited me to a party, but I said, next time Jimi, I have to work in the morning. Next time never came and my heart was broken when I heard of his death. I lost a dear friend.😢
Hendrix was released from a Purgatorian prison in September 2010. And on his way to Heaven he saved the life of Michael Savage who was about to be killed by a bicyclist in San Francisco. Out of no where, he said to Michael and the bicyclist "civility". And the bicyclist got back on his bicycle and left. Dr. Savage looked to thank Hendrix, but he was gone.
This is a good example of a "Pull out of my Ass story" to get some attention. People , please never ever lower yourself like this to get some attention.
I remember hearing Jimi Hendrix at a very young age and me and my friend CARL loved him and his music ! We collected all of his Albums . Jimi was different than other black musicians at that time ! Jimi Hendrix experience was rock not soul music back in those days most blacks listened to the Temptations , four tops and defonics but Jimi Hendrix experience was different . He broke from the mode of soul music and created a sound that no one else till this day was unable to copy ! There will never be another JIMI HENDRIX !
For us, the history of the world is divided into two distinct parts: BEFORE CHRIST/AFTER CHRIST; while the History of MUSIC can be divided rightly into BEFORE JIMI HENDRIX/AFTER JIMI HENDRIX ...JIMI IS the most INNOVATIVE and UNREACHABLE guitarist in History: I don't know if subsequent musicians would have managed to reach his SOUND in the studio with the equipment used by him in the YEARS 1966/67/68 and above all I believe that the other guitarists would not have been EVEN CREATIVE having only THREE YEARS of recording activity at their disposal as happened instead for the legendary EXPERIENCE...!!! 🎸✌💔❤
Interesting parallel for you: I was told that music changed after Jesus's resurrection. It was once all played in minor keys (I'm not a musician so excuse my terminology). But after his death and resurrection the world came alive and music thereafter became vibrant and enthusiastic. Well, Jimi revolutionized the electric guitar and rock-genre music by introducing feedback, and all other techniques attributed to him. That's why Jimi's called a genius--because he changed the world through music. He made music, and therefore life, more vibrant, rhythmic, and joyous than before he lived. Peace and joy to the world❣️🙏🙌
I have known a few people in my time that KNEW they weren't gonna be here for long. And each one was right! Their stars ⭐ burn hot & bright. And then...🌌 Super nova!🕊
Jimi wrote songs about Angels, muses, Mary, I mean obviously he had a strong spiritual side, and inspiration. "Someone" might have warned him his life would end much sooner than expected, because it was already "written in his destiny". Jimi had eventually hidden powerful antagonists, that is my theory, because these things existed in the US at the time.
Jimi seemed to be very prophetic. In his lyrics, he tells of things that haven't happened yet, but will; many times he speaks of his own death 😪 In "Up From the Skies", he said "I have lived here before, the days of ice; and of course this is why I'm so concerned. And I come back to find the stars misplaced and the smell of a world that's burned." He foresaw climate change back in '67.
Mike Jeffreys stood to make a fortune from Jimi's music if he died or lose it all of he changed managers.. which he wanted to. So the motibe is established. The circumstances very suspicious for several reasons.. So the simplest explanation would be he was offed by Mike Jeffreys.
Said he felt like he was surrounded by wolves and was losing trust for the people around him like everyone wanted something out of him. He could sense that there was some bad energy goin on, bad vibes. Plus he did drugs which could have effected his best judgements. He was planning to switch management. Felt like a hostage of Michael Jeffery, his shady manager with debts to the mob.. The guy took out life insurance policy on jimi right before he died. Pretty obvious if you ask me. On a side note, did it bother anyone else that this dude just kept talking about motherly figures instead of hendrix like wtf was that??
@Spencer Henderson the signs of the time of drugs, he's old, and his talking is like stream of consciousness connected with his own personal experience with death - I can relate with that, emotions come up and he's obviously a talker so with all that, I'm just guessing it's his way of telling a story.. It didn't stick out to me, in fact I found him interesting.
4:24 He’s talking about the original Jungle Book movie. I love that movie, with Sabu, the wild boy as Mowgli. The story is very different from the Disney movie. After being raised by wolves he is found and reunited with his mother. But living with people in the village doesn’t work out, and it ends in a war between all the animals in the Jungle against all the men of the village. Mowgli calls his knife his tooth, and asks his mother for one because he wants one to kill his enemy Shere Khan the tiger.
I was a Freshman in high school when I learned of Jimi Hendrix 09-18-70 passing on and barely a month later Janis Joplin 10-04-70 and being unfamiliar with drugs used at the time I couldn't understand how a person over doses on drugs that we knew like aspirin and vitamins which were always in abundance.
Saw him in Memphis, April '69, soldout. Again in '70 July 2 months prior to death; in 11000 seat coliseum with 2000 in attendance, never understood until the end. He and Terry Kath (Chicago) were wanting to change places in their next music, Kath band without horns and Jimi band with horns. John 3.3, 33-34.
Jimi's manager owed the mafia thousands of dollars. He had Jimi kidnapped once! What kind of crazy shit is that from someone who is supposed to be helping him?? Wtf!? And then Jimi had just taken out a multi million dollar life insurance policy. How the FVCK can you random dudes here that know very little about his life say that you're sure he killed himself?? Shut it unless you know what you are really talking about
@Leonard Weisfeld He talked too much about his future plans for him to do that , He had just built Electric lady studios and wanted to work with loads of people.
I remember back in the early 2000's Eric Burdon was at the Booksmith in San Francisco for a book signing and he was talking about how that girlfriend Monika Dannemann was a jealous girlfriend and very obsessive woman, and Eric Burdon said that it dawned on him later that she was the one who killed Jimi by slipping him some extra Vesparax so that Jimi would stay in London and miss his flight back to the states the next morning.
I first heard Jimi in 1966. The song was Hey Joe. I was 11. I next heard Purple Haze and Foxey Lady. I could not relate to the psychedelic sound effects. I told myself I would come back later and catch up on what he was about. Four years later I am 15. I was a freshman in high school. I came home and turned on CBS news. it was an Indian summer type day in SE Texas where I lived. I heard Walter Cronkite say that Jimi Hendrix had died. I felt numb. It was the same feeling I had when JFK, MLK and RFK were killed. Hard to explain. Just before or just after I heard Band of Gypsies for the first time. I suspected it was Hendrix but I wasn't certain. Heavy rock was a new thing for me. I was a young black kid who mostly heard soul and R&B. When I heard machine gun I thought to myself 'this is a black guy, probably Hendrix, cause there is a lot of funk and soul in this along with top of the line heavy guitar. I've been a solid Hendrix fan ever since. I really wished I could of seen him in person.
His music had run its course ...dont try and argue here Jimi knew it and is widely documented. This is why he had turned to the blues so hard...Not dissing the guy but any real musician will tell you there is a big middle and end in the creative cycle.
What was that long digression about mothers included for? And what I heard about his cause of death was that he was staying in the U.K. with a woman and asked her for a sleeping pill or tranquilizer for sleep. The ones in the U.K. were much stronger than the ones in the U.S. so he overdosed. If he had wine in his lungs, but no alcohol in his bloodstream, he could have used it to wash down the sleeping medication, quickly vomited and aspirated his vomit, which of course will kill you.
There's a story where Jimi set up a jam session with the Grateful Dead and Quicksilver Messenger Service on a houseboat in San Francisco Bay. Even though they had a gig at the Avalon Ballroom that night, the Dead went to Sausalito after and waited for Hendrix to show up... and waited... and waited. He never showed up. Ghosted a jam session he himself set up. Deeply disrespectful to his fellow musicians. So he shows up at the Avalon the next night expecting to jam with them onstage. Chet Helms (the promoter at the Avalon) asked what the hell happened last night. Jimi replied along the lines of "oh me and some chick dropped acid and f*cked all night" Chet reminded him that he had 8 musicians waiting around all night for him but he flaked, and they were rightfully pissed. Jimi was not asked onstage that night. That story made me lose alot of respect for Jimi. You don't flake on your fellow musicians. I rarely listen to his music nowadays, I find the Experience stuff mostly corny and dated and his playing over the top. I'll will put on Band Of Gypsys occasionally tho, the guy definitely had chops.
Seemed like the Mob was giving Jimi a hard time for Electric Lady Studio. The news ?, Huge fan. I'm starting Jr High at a new school. Friends are asking "Did you know Jimi died?" oh, really ? I was numb. I get home and 5 minutes later, my eldest sister call to see how i was doing. 'I miss him but i'm ok'. Took until GFR's I Can Hear Him In The Morning where i cried for him.
No disrespect but there are other video's that talk about his murder in greater detail with facts and situations than this shallow assessment. This guy is saying nothing other than having it being all about him. Again,.."NO" disrespect but this is not really informative at all about the scenario of Jimi being murdered.
This is all blurred busllshit, Hendrix played in July 1970 in Miami, in August he flew to Europe and died in September.. this guy doesn’t know what he is talking about
Jean Claude Debussy fractured music and took it below the line of despair. Jimi fixed his mess up. Not phased by the death of Modernity. Shredding Postmodernity for fun. Like no other. If you can just get your mind together, then come on across to me. We'll hold hands then watch the sun rise from the bottom of the sea. But first are you experienced. Have you ever been experienced? I have. Quite a thinker..
“What was it like, where were you when Hendrix died” Drugs from the past or just age, But he’s drifting way off subject after a minute from both questions asked. ..His 5 mothers??
Jimi’s tragic passing was an absolutely shattering experience for all who loved him & his incredible music… it was as if your closest friend or one of your family had died… that was the depth of grief we felt. I’m 73 now, and I’m still missing him every day.
me too..but He Knew
-EVERY DAY!! ✌🏼
Jimi changed my life with his incredibly sublime music that captured my imagination and his message of peace love and brotherhood that stole my soul. But he told us what life was all about with his Beautiful song "Drifting" of Cry of Love. The remake is a disgrace that they put out changing the beginning etc. He got no respect in life or after he passed. So,... Jimi was by all counts a musical prophet for only being connected to the other side in the manner he was could you possibly do what he did,..period end of story. He had a heavenly touch on guitar whether he was playing Machine Gun or something like Drifting or May This be Love,...MY GOD,...... is "May This be Love" just music fit for the angels. Sublime touch. I'm 72 and still listen to him constantly for no other musician touches me in the way my brother Jimi does.
❤
During his autopsy, they noticed his stomach was filled with wine yet there’s was no alcohol in his blood. They said his hair and clothes were filled with red wine. His manager was a piece of shit with connections to mafia , and Jimi was gonna leave him . The manager made more money from his death.
Thought this for years , Plus the girl who was with him that night " Monika " her story never added up and kept changing until she took her own life. Plus Jeffery never went to his funeral i wonder why.
@@richardbeaton7324 Jeffrey actually went to the funeral, but waited outside in his limo. Very strange behavior.
@@brandonterzic Yeah exactly , He didn't go into the church there for he didn't go to the funeral, He watched the coffin go into the church then drove off. very strange indeed.
Jeffrey was connected way higher than the Mafia.
@@celephais5748 Yeah i see what you are saying and normally i don't believe them, But i've been a life long fan of Jimi and there was motive, He was trying to leave his contract with Jefferey plus Jimi was getting very political at that time.

Plus you don't get wine in your lungs and hardly any in your blood stream when it's an accident. Food for thought. x
Im 63 yrs.old To me Jimi Hendrix will always be if not the most creative & inspiring individuals that I have ever had the privilege of living in the same time era.
Over the years the media portrayed him as a drugged out maniac. Years ago I was surprised to find out he was nothing like that and that before he passed he was at odds with the industry and was taking a much needed break from the chaos. If you look into it his death was very suspicious.
The atmosphere back then..I was a kid, but that post-assassinations era-it was hyper repressed. The war machine that had taken over US govt. That jedgar-fbi/Dulles CIA era. Jimi drew such attention, he would’ve been a huge threat, as he held youth enthralled. Bear in mind-no media like present-day. It moved slower.
Add Monika Danneman self deleting later in life. The only person who was with him when he died. Guilt perhaps?
He was murdered. Imagine having such a gifted soul in our presence and he gets taken out by low life's. His music and lyrics changed my way of thinking and my direction in life at 20 back in 1972. 72 now and I still listen to him all the time. No one before him, while he was here, or yet to come will ever possess the touch he had. Whether playing lead or rhythm,.....his playing will remain light years ahead of all,..... till the end of time,...period,...end of story!
@@bobhara7656 yeah. When I looked at it it seemed super suspicious. The whole thing is fishy.
I have to disagree. For many years i didn't know what the pills he took the night he died were. As soon as i found out that it was a barbiturate i said well no wonder. Mixing that with alcohol is deadly.
Machine Gun is like THE most astonishing work of creativity I've ever encountered.
And I mean out of ALL art, not just music.
Castles Made Of Sand is high up there on the list also. But MG was improvised live with no studio enhanced rework.
Just amazing
I love the song
It might have even got him killed
Machine gun
Band Of Gypsys is the only Hendrix I listen to these days. Most of the Experience stuff sounds quite corny and dated to my more mature ears.
"If I don't meet you no more in this world, then I, I'll meet ya on the next one and don't be late, don't be late" - Jimi Hendrix "I won't be late, I promise" - #1 fan!!!
He had already told his friends, 'When I die, just keep playing the records.' Jimi had already had a premonition that he would soon die, and that red wine would be involved.
To be fair all 27 year olds have a premonition they would die soon
"So what was it like when you found out Jimi Hendrix died?"
"I have five mothers."
Just a mess!
Lol what in the fuck was that about
Dude obviously took lots of acid in the old days, I know a few old hippies like this guy, they have cryptic thought jumps
Hey I'm here for it. The guy knew jimi when he died he can remember as many mothers as he wants
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"But all I'm saying to you is that . . ."
Buddy said it.. literally right after I read your comment. Ha
You caught that too uh?
That’s his “wrapping it up” phrase.
😂😂😂😂😂he loves saying that man 😂😂
I literally say this all the time after seeing this guy some time ago…all I’m
saying to you is, he made a big impression 😂
His lungs were filled of wine as well. Like some one holding you down pouring wine down your throat while being passed out. A year a 2 later Jeffery died in a plain crash! What goes around comes around!
sounds like Jimi was water boarded
@@frankdeleo8214 No,.... he was murdered ,..big difference!😡
Stop believing and sharing nonsense. Go read the autopsy report.
@@LeftyandFriends I've seen hour long studies on this,..tons of his friends talking about it,...I know the history and I believe what the emergency room doctors and techs said about wine flooding out of his lungs when they rolled him over. RED wine which he did not drink. So I don't believe Oswald shot Kennedy nor do I believe things just because I'm "suppose" to when there is "significant" evidence against what is pushed by those in power. You have no idea how corrupt this world is and what happens when "power" gets involved in publicity. You believe what you want and I'll do the same.
Yeah, but did you know that they never found Jeffery's body. Interesting.
For me, Jimi is still the most advanced human being of the 20th century. He played the music of the spheres. He had a direct connection to another dimension. His death wasn’t an overdose or accident. He was killed and he could sense it was coming.
You are not alone.
Oh, sure... He puts people like Isaac Asimov into shame (irony). Obviously Im a big Jimi Hendrix fan since I was little, but he was nowhere near to be "the most advanced human being of the 20th century..." And he would agree with that statement xDxD
@@gabrielp9646 Maybe Kurt Godel! But, if music is Math, the improvisational invention of Jimi’s playing was other worldly. I cite the version of Red House from the In The West album. It’s blues, but I’ve never heard anything, by any guitarist that comes close. Most people have never heard this, because it’s a bit obscure. Give it a try
@@gabrielp9646 Obviously? Funny, I didn't take that from your entry. Also, Isaac Asimov doesn't do shit for me. Jimi, on the other hand; has been by my side for 45 years. So, in MY mind, Jimi is way more advanced.
Jimi was really special and almost other worldly to me. I have read many books about him and I don't understand what happened to him .It may have not been a accident. He had a lot of users and evil managers etc..
Jimi came to me in a dream one night. While cycling through Europe in 1977 I had a short dream so vivid that I could not return to sleep. A phone rang, I answered, and it was Jimi, "Your mother has had a heart attack." I called Australia the next morning and was told mum was ok. On returning home to Australia12 months later, I was told mum indeed had had a heart attack and was in hospital at the time of my call. I was 18 when he died and I remember the tears rolling down my cheeks when I was told.
wow !!!!!
I've never heard a guy talk so much and say so little.
I was thinking the same thing
@@bartrobinson2103
me too. Nothing but a blow hard
Really a sketchy guy.
@@timjohle8876 he's in on it
Dude probably listened to Jimi Hendrix on LSD and thinks he knew him.
At the final few weeks of his life, Jimi was becoming evermore weary and paranoid about the future. His problems were compounded by the excessive touring, pressures and expectations, and just his willingness to change his new direction. He was just surrounded by snakes and leeches, trying to get a piece of him.
"Then he starts tuning his elbow" lolololol. Thats gold
It's not uncommon for people to see the End Coming, Jimi was very spiritual in tune..
I’ve seen my whole life, unfortunately I see it from the point of view of being a child so I interpret future stuff as something that happened in the past and shit gets all fuckn confusing
Jimi was my Hero, he died 200mt from where I was sleeping in Ladbroke Grove, London....I still remember the day, it blew me and my young new wife away in sorrow.
Best friend predicted his own early death. He was a talker. He called me one night not wanting to talk, just to hear me. Massive heart attack the next day.
THATS HEAVY BRO.ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO A FRIEND OF MINE HAD A HOMELESS FRIEND.I MET HIM,HE WAS COOL GUY IN HIS LATE 60s THAT LIVED IN A TENT.AND ONE DAY MY FRIEND WAS IN HIS FRIENDS TENT AND WAS TOLD ABRUPTLY GET OUT HERE NOW MY FRIEND THOUGHT IT WAS SOME KIND OF HIM WANTING HIS OWN SPACE SO HE LEFT.BUT AFTER HE LEFT HIS FRIEND DIED.THIS GUY TOLD MY FRIEND TO LEAVE BECAUSE HE KNEW HE WAS GOING TO DIE AND WANTED TO BE ALONE.ANYWAY,JIMI WAS THE BEST EVER
I can't think of anyone who's predicted their own death being wrong about it.
I recall my older brother waking me up to say "goodbye" (as though it would be the last time he did so) when I was a teenager--he was going camping and ATV riding. He ended up dying at age 33 and left a wife a 3 kids behind.
His wife later told me that he had mentioned to her several times that he'd always known he would die young.
Jimi was also right in predicting his upcoming passing away. That's what I believe.🙏
Jimi flew to England Aug 30 to play at the Isle Of Wight. He could not have been in Fla. two weeks before he died. I suspect most of his stories.
Most healthy people do not memorize dates to things that happen to them, and they especially don't remember things that happened to someone else 50 years ago. If he got the dates correct it would be far more suspicious then if he got them wrong. Because if he made them up he would have fact checked before hand but if he was being honest and just relying on memory these date discrepancies are exactly what you would expect.
Arthur Rimbaud was Jim’s favorite poet. There was an old story that gunrunners were out to kill him. So Rimbaud faked his death, left Paris, and went to Africa. And lived there until his death at the age of 90. Did Jim do the same thing?
“Remember when we were in Africa.” ~ Wild Child, 1969
On the morning of July third, a man claimed he saw Jim Morrison board a plane at the airport. That plane went to Africa. Jim had told friends, “Brian, Janis, Jimi - you’re drinkin’ with number four”.
Jim had heard the “Paul Is Dead” story. On the anniversary of Brian Jones death, did Jim fake his own death, and split to Africa, telling Pam he would send for her later?
"Last words, Last words out." ~ Those were the last words Morison wrote in his notebook in Paris.
So was it Premonition, Suicide or Splitsville?
“I’ve never been so broke that I couldn’t leave town… I'm leavin' town on the midnight train… I’m a Changeling… see me change" ~ The Changeling, 1971
According to Alain Ronay: “I returned with them to Paris and moved into the apartment. Pam had her own life entirely. She wasn’t always around, but for the whole of June I lived with Morrison, practically 24 hours a day. I won’t deny he was a dark and complicated person, or that Pam was a basket case. But strike the fact that Jim was despondent, or drug addicted, or terminally depressed. He was living his dream, and that had nothing to do with rock. He was delighted at the success of L.A. Woman, but his pleasure lay elsewhere.”
Likewise, Chauvel did not believe Morrison was in the club to buy drugs. “He didn’t need to buy in there. I never saw him take drugs, but he was always alcoholised, heavy on his words, a bit emotional. He’d be silent then he’d get up and say something really loud. You could see in his eyes, he had something important he wanted to say with a lot of energy, but it wouldn’t get past his mouth. It went through his eyes for a moment. That was it. He was fed up. He was not in a good place.”
“The first official who saw Morrison’s dead body was Alain Raisson, the French fireman/paramedic… he confirms the story of his arrival at the apartment with a team of five. The body was warm, so the team hurriedly tried to revive the singer. “We carried him onto the bed, to do cardiac massage,” he says. “We tried to revive him and failed. It was a short, intense, very real and brief encounter.” The warmth, they realised later, had come from the still warm bath.”
“The doctor who arrived a few minutes later was amazed when told that the man dressed in a Moroccan gown was only 27. “HE LOOKS MUCH OLDER. I WOULD HAVE SAID A 57 YEAR-OLD,” the doctor exclaimed.
He was happy to suggest that the patient had died of natural causes. Heart failure, possibly brought about by respiratory problems, was his verdict. No need for an autopsy. When Bernett wrote his book he contacted Raisson and the chief paramedic. “The fireman told me he knew Morrison died much earlier. He said ‘This guy’s been dead for a couple of hours, at least’.’ The police commissioner told me the same thing. ‘We knew there was something wrong with the story’, he said. ‘But, look it’s summertime and I’m going on vacation tomorrow’. He wanted to wrap it up quick so he signed the papers. He didn’t believe the story he was told in the apartment. He said it was strange and phoney, but he let it go.”
By 9am that Saturday the local police were swarming all over Rue Beautreillis and a small crowd of onlookers had gathered on the street. Courson and Ronay managed to leave the apartment on two occasions: to contact an undertaker, and to secure a Death Certificate at the Town Hall - much to the Chief of Police’s annoyance. Before he arrived, Pamela managed to flush her stash of heroin down the toilet and burnt a selection of Jim Morrison’s letters and notes.
“Why?” she was asked later, as the grate smouldered. “THEY MUSTN’T READ THIS... THIS STUFF,” she announced.” So if Jim left any message of leaving town alive - Pam destroyed it.
James Douglas Morrison’s final notebook read: “Regret for wasted nights & wasted years - I pissed it all away - American Music”. “Last words, Last words. Out”.
To quote Ray Manzarek:
“How do you even know Jim was in the coffin? How do you know it wasn’t 150 lbs. of f ing sand?”
this topic is about Jimi Hendrix...but I guess u don't care
The Greatest Ever in Rock and Roll. Period
I last saw Jimi Hendrix at the Swing Auditorium in San Bernardino late June 1970. It was just a few months before he passed over. He looked gone that night. I told my friends he didnt have long and looked dead
Ya, strange but I guess it wasn’t an unlikely picture at the time. I talked to someone who saw him at the Atlanta Pop Festival in 1970 and they said nearly the same thing: he looked like he didn’t have much time left. Him and friends made the comment to each other at the show. I think maybe at this point in the game he was overbooked and really exhausted.
Awesome you were able to see the concert in San Bernardino by the way.
There's a video on YT of a young lady interviewing her grandmother who spent Jimi's last day alive with him and Monnika Danneman.
Jimi and Monnika spent part if that afternoon with the now grandmother who was in her early twenties at the time, a young male English aristocrat, and another young lady.
They had invited Jimi and Monnika to come hang out with them at the wealthy man's mansion.
The now grandmother said that Jimi was relaxed and lovely, but Monnika was uptight, unfriendly, and restless.
She later saw Jimi and Monnika arguing in the garden of the home. It appeared that Jimi was trying to get away from Monnika but she refused to separate from him.
Also, Jimi told the lady who recounted this story that he looked forward to playing the guitar with her in the near future, once he learned she had a guitar.
I believe Jimi felt he would die soon and was exhausted, but it's too bad he couldn't have been with someone other than Monnika when it happened. She seemed to have forced herself upon Jimi. Sad.😢
There are several photos from the day before he died, in a garden, having tea. They're supposedly taken in a hotel's backyard garden. He looks pretty content, smiling with his black strat, picking flowers, holding a flower basket. I like to think of him like that on his last day, ... happy, in a sunny garden.
Jimi had a traumatic children, his mother once dropped Jimi at a friends' house, his diaper was frozen and his hands and feet were blue. Facts.
My thoughts exactly. To me Hendrix always came off as someone who was badly abused as a child. Quite likely worse than we know.
Eat another lude dude.
Was it necessary to say facts afterwards tho? Even if what you claim is true? What does saying facts after your own statement do? It's weird.
Facts? Really? Might want to proofread that first.
what does that even mean. they put him in the freezer? lol
He wrote "I Hear My Train a Com'n" for a reason. Like Prince say'n "Don't waste your prayers on me." Seems they had a real sense of it.
“Sometimes it snows in April”….
Na, that's a typical blues cliche
My Dad met Jimi in 1969 at Madison Square Garden. The whole encounter lasted about 15 seconds, but they spoke and shook hands. My Father saw Hendrix about 6x, MSG, Woodstock, Atlanta Pop Festival, and multiple times at the Fillmore East.
My Dad saw everyone in those days and he said without question that Jimi was the very best, the Babe Ruth of rock guitarists.
Back then as now, many young people thought they were going to die. Many of them even had death wishes. I don’t believe for a second that Jimi truly knew he was going to die. What I do believe is that Jimi burned the candle at both ends and he was running out of gas. I think that sort of superstardom makes one think, where the hell do I go from here?
While I respect Mike’s experiences, I don’t think Hendrix truly knew he was going to die young beyond what most people think at 27. I think Hendrix was very spiritual and in-tune, but he couldn’t have foreseen dying by asphyxiation on his own vomit (if that’s how he really died). Granted the cause of death would have been irrelevant, it would be the foreshadowing of death he saw that mattered.
I think Hendrix was often exhausted and totally out of energy. I think he knew he couldn’t keep it up.
RIP Jimi.
Mike's going on about his "mothers" in an interview about Jimi Hendrix as though it had any baring on anything. Dude's zonked out. Wouldn't take his word for very much. Clearly a super nice guy but he's quasi out of touch.
Jimi knew he was going to die before he reachedthe age of 28,he told a few close friends.
@morriypoulsen1238 I can't tell you how many people at that age say the same thing, and nothing ever happens. It just happened to sadly come true for Jimi.
@@matthewlawton9241 Agree. He meanders.
If you listen to the lyrics of Georgia blues he’s says ‘I was born in Georgia 27 years ago’ and ‘I don’t think I can go on anymore’ , ‘goodbye everybody’ . That’s so eerie to me
His dates are a little off. Hendrix flew to England at the end of August to play the Isle of Wight on 8-31-70. He played a few more shows in Europe in the first 2 weeks of Sept and returned to London several days before his death on September 18th. He couldn't have been in New York 4 days before he died, He'd been overseas for at least 3 weeks.
Rip James Marshall Hendrix.. we love you and miss you
Sounds more like Hendrix was simply referring to a career change and not revealing a death prediction.
"I don't know how much longer I'll be doing what I'm doing", fits in with all of the accounts of him by that time being sick and tired of the music business due to being worked like a dog by his Manager. So, he's pondering a change of direction which takes him out of that situation, but isn't sure yet how or when that will happen so doesn't talk in specifics. Bear in mind he was at the time of the conversation one of the biggest Rock Stars on the planet, one of the highest paid, and was tied into that job with contracts and commitments. That's not something he could just walk away from on a whim no matter how much he may have desired it.
"I don't know how much longer I'll be needing clothes". Bear in mind he's talking to the guy who designs his stage outfits. The clothes he wears when *performing* on stage. Which would seem to confirm him considering leaving the music business as a performer - because he'd then have no more need for custom made stage clothes.
I’m not saying he wasn’t murdered, but what u said is 100% facts, I got the sane thing….like, he said “Jimi told me three things”, then he names those two nothing- burgers, & im thinking, “ok, the third thing must be crazy”, & then he forgot the third thing, lol…..yeah, I totally agree.
He wasn't. He took too many sleeping.
Jimmy hendrix had a recording studio which still exists in New york called electric Lady it is in manhattan
I knew Jimi very well. I met him when I was 14. I saw him driving to St Pete, the night before he headed to the UK. He invited me to a party, but I said, next time Jimi, I have to work in the morning. Next time never came and my heart was broken when I heard of his death. I lost a dear friend.😢
How was Jimi as a person? I read that he was always playing. Like constantly or 24/7😅
Jimi and his guitar were as one
"If six turned out to be nine, i dont mind".......... (I know when its time for me to die"
for him it was all about meeting his angel in the skies ... who came down from heaven ´to see him once ...
Jimi was such an amazing person
Hendrix was released from a Purgatorian prison in September 2010. And on his way to Heaven he saved the life of Michael Savage who was about to be killed by a bicyclist in San Francisco. Out of no where, he said to Michael and the bicyclist "civility". And the bicyclist got back on his bicycle and left. Dr. Savage looked to thank Hendrix, but he was gone.
If I hung out with Jimi Hendrix my brain would be a little scrambled too
Rest In Paradise Jimi Hendrix 💘
This is a good example of a "Pull out of my Ass story" to get some attention. People , please never ever lower yourself like this to get some attention.
I wish these videos included some of the clothes designs and talked about the clothing inspiration and how they were made but it’s still great!
I remember hearing Jimi Hendrix at a very young age and me and my friend CARL loved him and his music ! We collected all of his Albums .
Jimi was different than other black musicians at that time ! Jimi Hendrix experience was rock not soul music back in those days most blacks listened to the Temptations , four tops and defonics but Jimi Hendrix experience was different .
He broke from the mode of soul music and created a sound that no one else till this day was unable to copy ! There will never be another JIMI HENDRIX !
albert king said he could play jimis songs but jimi couldnt play mine
@@dancingtrout6719 Because Jimi didn't live long enough !
I have fond memories of going to Morrison's with my grandma in the late seventies.....
But Morrison died in 1971 🤓✌️🚀
For us, the history of the world is divided into two distinct parts: BEFORE CHRIST/AFTER CHRIST; while the History of MUSIC can be divided rightly into BEFORE JIMI HENDRIX/AFTER JIMI HENDRIX ...JIMI IS the most INNOVATIVE and UNREACHABLE guitarist in History: I don't know if subsequent musicians would have managed to reach his SOUND in the studio with the equipment used by him in the YEARS 1966/67/68 and above all I believe that the other guitarists would not have been EVEN CREATIVE having only THREE YEARS of recording activity at their disposal as happened instead for the legendary EXPERIENCE...!!! 🎸✌💔❤
Interesting parallel for you: I was told that music changed after Jesus's resurrection. It was once all played in minor keys (I'm not a musician so excuse my terminology). But after his death and resurrection the world came alive and music thereafter became vibrant and enthusiastic.
Well, Jimi revolutionized the electric guitar and rock-genre music by introducing feedback, and all other techniques attributed to him.
That's why Jimi's called a genius--because he changed the world through music. He made music, and therefore life, more vibrant, rhythmic, and joyous than before he lived. Peace and joy to the world❣️🙏🙌
What did the mother story have to do with anything about hendrix dying? I was trying relate it the best I could but it wasn't making sense to me
It all I’m saying to you is that this interview is all over the place.
What is this dude even talking about
Some celebrity deaths bring out my inner skeptic
Examples
Jimi Hendrix
Tupac shakur
Sam cook
Their deaths Really seem off to me
I feel privilaged by picking this video to watch...thanks for posting this one...hope all at Koncrete KLIPS are doing well.
I have known a few people in my time that KNEW they weren't gonna be here for long. And each one was right! Their stars ⭐ burn hot & bright. And then...🌌
Super nova!🕊
Wow! Great insight to the creativity that was just spilling out of him.
I have it on good authority that Jimi was hoping to fly to Iceland to play a show someday.
1:20 It seems it was about two & a half months before Jimi died.
He played the Fronton in Miami in early July & he died on September 18, 1970.
Jimi wrote songs about Angels, muses, Mary, I mean obviously he had a strong spiritual side, and inspiration. "Someone" might have warned him his life would end much sooner than expected, because it was already "written in his destiny". Jimi had eventually hidden powerful antagonists, that is my theory, because these things existed in the US at the time.
JIMI Hendrix is not dead at all his Spirit and his Creativity live on in his Music.
Jimi seemed to be very prophetic. In his lyrics, he tells of things that haven't happened yet, but will; many times he speaks of his own death 😪 In "Up From the Skies", he said "I have lived here before, the days of ice; and of course this is why I'm so concerned. And I come back to find the stars misplaced and the smell of a world that's burned." He foresaw climate change back in '67.
Hendrix went to a tarot card reader who told him that he was soon to die. Hendrix cried knowing death was near
i love hearing testimony of old people who were witness of great historical events in rock, not many left from the 60s of course
Mike Jeffreys stood to make a fortune from Jimi's music if he died or lose it all of he changed managers.. which he wanted to. So the motibe is established. The circumstances very suspicious for several reasons.. So the simplest explanation would be he was offed by Mike Jeffreys.
Said he felt like he was surrounded by wolves and was losing trust for the people around him like everyone wanted something out of him. He could sense that there was some bad energy goin on, bad vibes. Plus he did drugs which could have effected his best judgements. He was planning to switch management. Felt like a hostage of Michael Jeffery, his shady manager with debts to the mob.. The guy took out life insurance policy on jimi right before he died. Pretty obvious if you ask me.
On a side note, did it bother anyone else that this dude just kept talking about motherly figures instead of hendrix like wtf was that??
Wild Thing ,Made His heart sing...
@Spencer Henderson the signs of the time of drugs, he's old, and his talking is like stream of consciousness connected with his own personal experience with death - I can relate with that, emotions come up and he's obviously a talker so with all that, I'm just guessing it's his way of telling a story.. It didn't stick out to me, in fact I found him interesting.
@@marysalvi242 Same here. It's the way I talk, so perhaps that's why Michael's stories made perfect sense to me. Others are much quicker to judge.
4:24 He’s talking about the original Jungle Book movie. I love that movie, with Sabu, the wild boy as Mowgli. The story is very different from the Disney movie. After being raised by wolves he is found and reunited with his mother. But living with people in the village doesn’t work out, and it ends in a war between all the animals in the Jungle against all the men of the village. Mowgli calls his knife his tooth, and asks his mother for one because he wants one to kill his enemy Shere Khan the tiger.
I was a Freshman in high school when I learned of Jimi Hendrix 09-18-70 passing on and barely a month later Janis Joplin 10-04-70 and being unfamiliar with drugs used at the time I couldn't understand how a person over doses on drugs that we knew like aspirin and vitamins which were always in abundance.
Saw him in Memphis, April '69, soldout. Again in '70 July 2 months prior to death; in 11000 seat coliseum with 2000 in attendance, never understood until the end. He and Terry Kath (Chicago) were wanting to change places in their next music, Kath band without horns and Jimi band with horns. John 3.3, 33-34.
He told a lot of people he wasn't going to live long . New theory is his manager may have murdered him by pouring a bottle of wine down his throat .
Yup...
Jimi's manager owed the mafia thousands of dollars. He had Jimi kidnapped once! What kind of crazy shit is that from someone who is supposed to be helping him?? Wtf!? And then Jimi had just taken out a multi million dollar life insurance policy. How the FVCK can you random dudes here that know very little about his life say that you're sure he killed himself?? Shut it unless you know what you are really talking about
@@charlesbogle6544 yup' Charles everything you say is absolutely true unfortunately and Monicca played her part too....
ruclips.net/video/TK3LnmnE9Qc/видео.html
@Leonard Weisfeld He talked too much about his future plans for him to do that , He had just built Electric lady studios and wanted to work with loads of people.
Jimmi was NOT on heroin!!!!!
Starts tuning up his elbow 🤣🤣🤣 so funny
I remember back in the early 2000's Eric Burdon was at the Booksmith in San Francisco for a book signing and he was talking about how that girlfriend Monika Dannemann was a jealous girlfriend and very obsessive woman, and Eric Burdon said that it dawned on him later that she was the one who killed Jimi by slipping him some extra Vesparax so that Jimi would stay in London and miss his flight back to the states the next morning.
she called Burdon who arrived at her place right before the ambulance.
No matter ritchie blackmore Jeff beck or who ever else but hendrix was is and remains number 1 he deserves to call God of the guitars
I think Jimi took a piece of work like a god himself! really observable too! Leon is still making music!
These stories all grow legs over years
The brightest stars have the shortest life !
That's so TRUE !
I first heard Jimi in 1966. The song was Hey Joe. I was 11. I next heard Purple Haze and Foxey Lady. I could not relate to the psychedelic sound effects. I told myself I would come back later and catch up on what he was about. Four years later I am 15. I was a freshman in high school. I came home and turned on CBS news. it was an Indian summer type day in SE Texas where I lived. I heard Walter Cronkite say that Jimi Hendrix had died. I felt numb. It was the same feeling I had when JFK, MLK and RFK were killed. Hard to explain. Just before or just after I heard Band of Gypsies for the first time. I suspected it was Hendrix but I wasn't certain. Heavy rock was a new thing for me. I was a young black kid who mostly heard soul and R&B. When I heard machine gun I thought to myself 'this is a black guy, probably Hendrix, cause there is a lot of funk and soul in this along with top of the line heavy guitar. I've been a solid Hendrix fan ever since. I really wished I could of seen him in person.
His music had run its course ...dont try and argue here Jimi knew it and is widely documented. This is why he had turned to the blues so hard...Not dissing the guy but any real musician will tell you there is a big middle and end in the creative cycle.
If he new it, then he knew people were trying to kill him
Why...is all this coming out now?
i thought this was Roger Daltey
Jimi predicted his own death in the film Rainbow Bridge...
"Choking on a grape"...
What was that long digression about mothers included for? And what I heard about his cause of death was that he was staying in the U.K. with a woman and asked her for a sleeping pill or tranquilizer for sleep. The ones in the U.K. were much stronger than the ones in the U.S. so he overdosed. If he had wine in his lungs, but no alcohol in his bloodstream, he could have used it to wash down the sleeping medication, quickly vomited and aspirated his vomit, which of course will kill you.
27 Club is a bunch who's souls were collected as payment for the purchase of brief but extreme fame and legend
according to Ruth Mongomery it is the number of Lucifer
You've been a wonderful friend to me Mr Jimi Hendrix
I think it really confirms that he feared for his life!!!
There's a story where Jimi set up a jam session with the Grateful Dead and Quicksilver Messenger Service on a houseboat in San Francisco Bay. Even though they had a gig at the Avalon Ballroom that night, the Dead went to Sausalito after and waited for Hendrix to show up... and waited... and waited. He never showed up. Ghosted a jam session he himself set up. Deeply disrespectful to his fellow musicians.
So he shows up at the Avalon the next night expecting to jam with them onstage. Chet Helms (the promoter at the Avalon) asked what the hell happened last night. Jimi replied along the lines of "oh me and some chick dropped acid and f*cked all night" Chet reminded him that he had 8 musicians waiting around all night for him but he flaked, and they were rightfully pissed. Jimi was not asked onstage that night.
That story made me lose alot of respect for Jimi. You don't flake on your fellow musicians. I rarely listen to his music nowadays, I find the Experience stuff mostly corny and dated and his playing over the top. I'll will put on Band Of Gypsys occasionally tho, the guy definitely had chops.
Chet Helms tells it much better than I do.
his manager from what i understand was a bonafide “thug” & was harassing jimi beyond comprehension…cause jimi wanted out & away from him.
Loved this

When they tear the Blue Room down?
Sometimes, Louder is Better
Morrison's Cafeteria had very good food...! They were everywhere in Florida.
Yep... 20/20 perfect hindsight
Seemed like the Mob was giving Jimi a hard time for Electric Lady Studio.
The news ?, Huge fan.
I'm starting Jr High at a new school.
Friends are asking "Did you know Jimi died?"
oh, really ? I was numb.
I get home and 5 minutes later, my eldest sister call to see how i was doing.
'I miss him but i'm ok'.
Took until GFR's I Can Hear Him In The Morning where i cried for him.
There's usually some sign or just knowing they're going to die SOoN
No disrespect but there are other video's that talk about his murder in greater detail with facts and situations than this shallow assessment. This guy is saying nothing other than having it being all about him. Again,.."NO" disrespect but this is not really informative at all about the scenario of Jimi being murdered.
Truth is often stranger than fiction and theories aren’t always conspiracy…it wouldn’t surprise me at all if Jimi was killed.
jimi was definitely into alchemy
This is all blurred busllshit, Hendrix played in July 1970 in Miami, in August he flew to Europe and died in September..
this guy doesn’t know what he is talking about
He shouldn't have got involved himself with the black panthers
This guy did A LOT of drugs.
does he say anything foreshadowing Jimi's death during this clip.......I must've missed it?
Jean Claude Debussy fractured music and took it below the line of despair. Jimi fixed his mess up. Not phased by the death of Modernity. Shredding Postmodernity for fun. Like no other. If you can just get your mind together, then come on across to me. We'll hold hands then watch the sun rise from the bottom of the sea. But first are you experienced. Have you ever been experienced? I have. Quite a thinker..
ted nugent said hendrix offered him drugs which he declined and ted said he told jimi drugs were killing him.
“What was it like, where were you when Hendrix died” Drugs from the past or just age, But he’s drifting way off subject after a minute from both questions asked. ..His 5 mothers??
