The words mattered too!

Jimi Hendrix was such an incredible guitarist that it's easy to forget the creativity and pure poetry of his lyrics. Hendrix was a true lyrical innovator, exploring words hitherto unknown within the realm of pop music.

Jimi Hendrix The Lyrics is an extraordinary book that includes numerous examples of Jimi's handwritten lyrics, often scribbled on whatever paper was at hand, and photos of Jimi with every song. Includes experimental excursions from the gorgeous Little Wing to the psychedelic blues of My Friend to the surreal 1983 ( . . . A Merman I Should Turn to Be). Jimi's lyrics remain among the greatest in the pantheon of rock, infused with the same experimentation and virtuousity that informed his playing. Jimi Hendrix The Lyrics also includes classics like Purple Haze, Foxey Lady, Voodoo Chile, The Wind Cries Mary, Dolly Dagger and Are You Experienced?.

Hardcover with full-color and black & white photos and illustrations throughout. 186 pages.
