Jimi Hendrix: The Guitar Hero

Jimi Hendrix: The Guitar Hero contains all new and exclusive interviews with Dave Mason (Traffic), Eric Clapton, Mick Taylor (The Rolling Stones), Eric Burdon (The Animals), Paul Rodgers (Bad Company), Ginger Baker (Cream), Bev Bevan (ELO), Crosby, Stills & Nash, and others. Some of these musicians were his mentors, some his contemporaries, and some admirers of his incredible talent. Hendrix has influenced countless established and emerging artists, which is why his work remains at the zenith of rock music to this day.

Moving beyond the icon and the myth, this DVD brings alive the image and music that Jimi Hendrix elicited from his very soul. His art evokes a home-grown, raw, and uncensored sensuality, which indeed was his nature, as if he were his own muse. Narrated by Slash (Guns N' Roses, Velvet Revolver), a longtime Hendrix acolyte, this film is less a biography than the first film ever to focus on the music itself and the impetus of the master who created it.

Special features include a collectible 20 page booklet, Henry Diltz's 8mm silent footage "The Monkees," The Jimi Hendrix Experience performing at the Marquee, extended interviews, and photo galleries. Approximately 109 minutes.
