Jimi Hendrix (November 27 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/November_27), 1942 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1942) – September 18 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_18), 1970 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970)) was an American (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States) guitarist (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guitarist), singer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singer) and songwriter (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Songwriter). Hendrix is considered one of the greatest and most influential guitarists in rock music (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_music) history. After initial success in England, he achieved worldwide fame following his 1967 performance at the Monterey Pop Festival (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monterey_Pop_Festival). Later, Hendrix headlined the iconic 1969 Woodstock Festival (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodstock_Festival).
Jimi Hendrix helped pioneer the technique of guitar feedback (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_feedback) with overdriven amplifiers, incorporating into his music what was previously an undesirable sound. He built upon the innovations and influences of blues stylists such as B.B. King (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B.B._King), Muddy Waters (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muddy_Waters), Albert King (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_King), and T-Bone Walker (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-Bone_Walker), and derived style from rhythm and blues and soul guitarists Curtis Mayfield (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtis_Mayfield), Steve Cropper (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Cropper), and Cornell Dupree (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornell_Dupree), as well as from traditional jazz. Part of Hendrix's flamboyant stage persona may have been inspired by rock pioneer Little Richard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Richard), with whom he toured as part of Richard's back-up band, "The Upsetters." Hendrix is also widely thought to be influenced by Pete Townshend (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pete_Townshend) of The Who (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Who), who performed in London when Hendrix started his career there in 1966. Carlos Santana (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlos_Santana) has also suggested that Hendrix's music may have been influenced by his Native American heritage.
Hendrix strove to combine what he called "earth", a blues (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blues), jazz (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazz), or funk (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funk) driven rhythm accompaniment, with "space", the high-pitched psychedelic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychedelic_music) sounds created by his guitar improvisations. As a record producer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Record_producer), Hendrix also broke new ground in using the recording studio as an extension of his musical ideas; he was one of the first to experiment with stereophonic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereophonic_sound) and phasing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phasing) effects during recording.
Hendrix was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock_and_Roll_Hall_of_Fame) in 1992 and the UK Music Hall of Fame (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_Music_Hall_of_Fame) in 2005. His star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollywood_Walk_of_Fame) (at 6627 Hollywood Blvd.) was dedicated in 1994. In 2006, his debut album, Are You Experienced (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Are_You_Experienced_%28album%29), was inducted into the United States (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States) National Recording Preservation Board's National Recording Registry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Recording_Registry). Rolling Stone (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_Stone_%28magazine%29) named Hendrix number 1 on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_Stone%27s_100_Greatest_Guitarists_of_All_Time) in 2003.
