Jimi left us on this day, 1970.

Jimi would have done so much more musically, and loved so many of the great players that came along after he passed.

just a few days ago, and not even knowing the date, was wondering who Jimi would have liked to play with, had he lived on.

I would love to have heard Jimi's take on Buckethead, among others. I suspect he would have sent him a guitar.

I suspect Jimi would have played with pretty much anyone he found interesting musically. After all he did use Miles Davis on rainy day dream away.

I watched a documentary last night about his questionable death, and the timing of leaving his money grubbing manager who was
milking Jimi for everything he could before the contract expired. Jimi had met with another manager for a dinner party the night
he died. When he left that party, that was the last time anybody saw him. The amount of red wine in his lungs that had not been
absorbed into the body was very suspicious. The documentary was titled "Jimi Hendrix: A Prefect Murder?" I believe it was on
the Nat Geo channel.

I never knew how much greed his manger had. Jimi and the band got crumbs, while this rat manager filled his offshore bank accounts.
If his murder was orchestrated by this scum, I can only hope that cosmic karma will prevail/prevailed. I did not see anything about his
managers status presently. I don't even know if he's dead or alive. RIP Jimi.
