Jimi Hendrix is widely recognized as one of the most creative and influential musicians of the 20th century. He pioneered the explosive possibilities of the electric guitar. He was born Johnny Allen Hendrix on November 27, 1942 at 10:15 a.m. at Seattle's King County Hospital. He was later renamed James Marshall by his father. His name became Jimi Hendrix when he started performing. Jimi Hendrix was unable to read or write music, so it is nothing short of remarkable that his meteoric rise in the music industry took place in just four short years. He played at the Woodstock Music & Art Fair in 1969. Some of his songs are Hey Joe, Foxey Lady, Fire, Are You Experienced, The Wind Cries Mary, & Purple Haze.
