A Film About Jimi Hendrix
The Story
Offstage he was withdrawn, almost shy. On-stage he strapped on his kiss-the-sky Stratocaster and shattered all notions of how a guitar could be played.

This definitive documentary was the first authorized effort to detail Hendrix's celebrated life and career. Hendrix's family and close friends are joined by such rock legends as Eric Clapton, Mick Jagger, Pete Townshend and Little Richard, each presenting their own memories of the greatest rock guitarist of all time.

For the first time, this look at Jimi Hendrix and his legacy includes the sonic richness of a new Dolby 5.1 soundtrack prepared by original Hendrix engineer Eddie Kramer plus over 75 minutes of rockin' DVD extras. Re-experience electrifying, full-length concert performances from the Monterey, Woodstock and Isle of Wright Festivals. London's Marquee Club and the Filmore East. From a blazing Purple Haze to a driving Machine Gun to a flamboyant Wild Thing to a soulful Hear My Train A Comin', Jimi Hendrix pulls out all the stops.
