From the deep exploration of his musical evolution to the cast of characters who knew him well to the vivid portrayal of the world he moved in, this is a book that lets you meet the real Jimi once and for all, and it's mindblowing. In these pages, Jimi fans will discover that truth is stranger, more beautiful, and more soulful than mythology." --<i>Daniel Weizmann</i>--music historian and journalist<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Harvey Kubernik's work has been published nationally in <i>Melody Maker</i>, <i>Variety</i>, <i>Goldmine</i>, the <i>Los Angeles Times</i>, <i>MOJO</i>, and <i>Record Collector News</i>.
