Biography of Jimi
Hendrix

He was an American musician. Although his professional career lasted only four years, 

he is considered one of  the most influential guitarists in the history of rock. The 

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame describes him as "Unquestionably one of the

greatest musicians in rock history."

He was born in Seattle, Washington and began playing the guitar at 15 years of age.

 In 1961, he enlisted in the United States Army as a paratrooper in the 101st Airborne

 Division and graduated the following year. In a matter of months, Hendrix had 

already won three Top 10  singles in the UK with his band The Jimi Hendrix

Experience: "Hey Joe," "Purple Haze," and  "The Wind Cries Mary." It jumped 

to the fame in the United States after its performance in  Monterrey Pop Festival

of 1967. The following year, in 1968, its third disc of study,  "Electric Ladyland",

arrived at the first position of the American list of successes;  It was his biggest

and only number one commercial success in that country.

Hendrix's musical influences were inspired by the American rock and roll 

and electric blues.  He is known for using amplifiers with distortion, high 

volume and gain, in addition to being  an innovator in taking advantage 

of the coupling generated by the guitar.

Jimi died on September 18, 1970 at the age of 27 in Notting Hill, 

London, England, United Kingdom. 

How did JIMI HENDRIX feel when he became famous?

It is a feeling of pride at the same time that music and guitar are what he liked

most since he  was a child, and when he became famous thanks to his talent

with the guitar, was  the greatest happiness of his life.

Personal opinion

For me, this is one of the best guitarists in the world, because 
although he had no money and was looking for ways to fulfill
his dreams in an unstoppable way until he fulfilled them, 
that's why I admire him so much.
