Yea, verily I say unto you that this immortal phenomenon briefly incarnated in part as the one and only Jimi Hendrix lives, for he comes alive, and thrashes the life out of my speakers, infuses my freaking plants, rattles the walls and windows with otherworldly vibrations, and makes me wriggle and writhe in sonic ecstasy every time RP puts him on! Not necessarily STONED, but, uhh...BEAUTIFUL...

If Trower was a glass of talent, Jimi was an ocean. Think not ? Just ask Clapton, Page, Beck (Jeff), B.B. King, Van Halen, or Trower himself. Hendrix was in a class of his own, not to be matched by mere mortals.

1. Jimi headlined first
2. Trower didn't die young
3. Jimi was American, home of the hyper-est-marketing record industry in the world. There was money to made from a black psychedelic rock-and-roll guitar player, especially after he died from drugs. Google his music rights and you'll see what I mean. 4. Trower's catalog doesn't include as wide a variety as Hendrix's. (Trower still isn't dead, as of February 5, 2011, when I saw him on stage, although he's got to be pushing 65.) |

or maybe they're just not fond of Jimi's brand/style/take of music? |

The segue from Billie Holiday was most appreciated. I was fixing dinner (late, it was) and just smiled..."Only on RP, I thought."
