…And Just Like That..He Was Gone

It was 49 years ago today. The details are still sketchy but one thing is certain, on September 18, 1970 the world lost a true musical genius. And far to soon.

On Sept 18, 1970 at 12:45 pm, after having been found breathing unconscious and unresponsive by then girlfriend Monika Dannemann, James Marshall “Jimi” Hendrix was pronounced dead.

Hendrix revolutionized the electric guitar during a solo career that spanned less than 5 years. His tragic death leaves fans to wonder “what could have been”?
