The original photograph of Hendrix was taken in London, 1970, a day before he died. It is a great photo, Hendrix looks relaxed and at peace. Certainly not like a man about to take his own life as some people suggest. Most people know Hendrix only as a crazy guy who burned his guitar on stage or else smashed it up. But Hendrix was much more than an act, he was a great artist and a kind man.
