Titles in Collection & Description
Discover the extraordinary life, music and legacy of Jimi Hendrix with Biographic: Hendrix, a visually engaging biography from the innovative Great Lives in Graphic Form series. Combining fascinating facts and figures with colourful infographics, this book offers a fresh and entertaining way to explore the artist behind some of rock music''s most iconic performances.
Jimi Hendrix (1942–1970) was a pioneering guitarist and songwriter whose innovative electric guitar playing and unforgettable performances helped define the sound and culture of the 1960s. Despite his short career, Hendrix became one of the most influential musicians in rock history.
But there is much more to Hendrix than his music.
Biographic: Hendrix presents 50 defining facts, dates, thoughts, habits and achievements from his life and career in vivid visual snapshots. Discover that Hendrix trained as a paratrooper in the US Army, and that his first guitar cost just $5.
His legendary stage performances also became part of rock history. The guitar he famously set alight at the Monterey Pop Festival later sold for $380,000. The book also explores the brief but hugely influential career of the Jimi Hendrix Experience, who recorded just three studio albums.
Hendrix died in 1970 at the age of 27, becoming one of the most famous members of the so-called 27 Club of influential musicians who died at that age.
