Jimi Hendrix’s career has seen him working with other legends like Bob Dylan, Little Richard, the Isley Brothers and Eric Clapton. Hendrix is very much talented with the electric guitar earning him the admiration of the likes of Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney, John Lennon, and Brian Jones. Hendrix is talented, determined, innovative and a bit of a showboat, wearing colorful, flamboyant outfits, and is one of the first musicians to smash their instruments on stage or light them on fire. Many others have destroyed their instruments earlier, but an image of Hendrix burning his guitar in a 1967 performance was legendary.
The height of his career lasted only four years, but he’s considered one of the most influential and is even described as arguably the greatest instrumentalist and guitarist in the history of rock music by the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.
