    I've just recently been getting into a Hendrix phase... watched a biopic, and that sent me scrambling for some info and video (seems like a lot of the old footage has been cleaned up... looks and sounds great!!)

    Was just watching some interviews with BB King regarding Hendrix... I loved seeing him at Crossroads 2007.

    BB King, Buddy Guy, Jimmy Vaughn, and Eric Clapton...

    BB can't be replaced and will be missed.
