The moment Jimi Hendrix "graduated from rumor to legend"

When Jimi Hendrix set his guitar on fire at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival he created one of rock's most perfect moments. Standing in the front row of that concert was a 17-year-old boy named Ed Caraeff. Caraeff had never seen Hendrix before nor heard his music, but he had a camera with him and there was one shot left in his roll of film. As Hendrix lit his guitar, Caraeff took a final photo. It would become one of the most famous images in rock and roll.
Author John McDermott commented: "Hendrix left the Monterey audience stunned and in disbelief at what they'd just heard and seen." According to Hendrix: "I decided to destroy my guitar at the end of a song as a sacrifice. You sacrifice things you love. I love my guitar."

Hendrix gained his popularity in Europe opening for bands like Pink Floyd (Syd Barrett era) and The Who. How crazy would it have been to be at one of those shows (which probably cost about $5) where the Hendrix Experience was the OPENING act

Hendrix's legacy gets worse as idiot millennials bash his guitar skills to prop up Taylor Swift.

No I'm just drawing a comparison to doogs tarnishing Don James' legacy in an attempt to support the current shitty coach.CFetters_Nacho_Lover said:
