JIMI HENDRIX ELECTRIC LADYLAND 1968 RAR MOVIE

As young as the age of 10, Hendrix used a broom as a guitar until his father bought him a real one. Hendrix was born into a stressful environment, with two alcoholic parents who fought so much it forced him to hide in the closet. Instead of calling him a вЂњmusical madmanвЂќ or something like it, can we acknowledge that this man probably had a lot of previous trauma and mental health issues in a time that mental health was not even a thing? And being shot into fame by his early 20s probably only worsened his mental health? But I really canвЂ™t help but think about how young Jimi Hendrix was through his career, and yet how much he had been through beforehand. It is a story we hear a lot, especially about musicians from the вЂ60s and вЂ70s: someone incredibly talented rose to fame in a short amount of time, but the music, fame, and drug addiction eventually drove them mad and consequently either ruined their career or took their life at too young an age. By the time the album was finished, Jimi Hendrix lost his manager/producer and his bassist, both of whom said they couldnвЂ™t take it anymore. It would force the staff to say in the studio for long hours every night of the week. He always wanted it to sound exactly how it sounded in his head, but Hendrix could never get there. When it came to mixing a song Hendrix would play it 300 times over and over, not letting anyone else touch it, yet never being happy with the sound. When he did arrive heвЂ™d bring in an entourage so large that the staff had difficulty getting around the control room. He showed up late to the recording studio, hours after everyone else showed up. Sure enough, when he took a comb, put cellophane across it and blew through it, this kazoo made the perfect high pitched noise to coincide with his guitar and create what can only be described as the sound of the вЂ60s.ДЄnyone that worked with Jimi Hendrix on this album tells the same story. He asked people in the studio for a comb and cellophane. While he was creating this song, Hendrix couldnвЂ™t get the sound that he was hoping for on the track.
