One of the most talented artists ever to grace the musical sphere. He was pure genius.

He was also highly prolific. His close circle said for every one song he recorded, there were 40 others waiting in the wings and they were amazing. That all died with him.

Too bad he lived in a time when illicit harmful drugs ravaged the entertainment industry.

RIP Jimi.

Do you know how he got out of the Army early? He claimed he was a homosexual, to which the Army agreed and discharged him.

I look forward to hearing him and Beethoven together in Heaven, but not in a hurry to get there.

Hi to late Freeper Windflyer.
Hope you are enjoying the show up there.

Ditto for Prince, they'll be releasing stuff from his vaults for years.

For really prolific in the guitar virtuoso realm, check out Buckethead. He released over 300 albums in 2015 alone.
