Jimi Hendrix JIMI HENDRIX BIOGRAFIA Jimi Hendrix não foi um músico excepcional no sentido exacto da palavra. Autodidata e canhoto, tocava de maneira completamente estranha uma guitarra Fender Stratocaster para destros, com as cordas invertidas. Revolucionou a maneira de tocar guitarra, desenvolvendo o uso da alavanca e principalmente dos pedais conhecidos como wha-wha. Mais do que isso colocou a figura do guitarrista como principal personagem nas bandas de rock. Seus solos e riffs foram uma das principais raízes para o nascimento do heavy metal. Johnny Allen Hendrix nasceu em Seattle, Washington, em 1942. O seu nome foi posteriormente alterado pelo pai ainda durante a infância para James Marshall Hendrix. Aos 16 anos começou a tocar violão, participando num grupo chamado Velvetones. Aos 17 recebeu do pai uma guitarra eléctrica e entrou para o grupo Rocking Kings que mais tarde mudaria de nome para Thomas & The Tomcats. Jimi resolveu abandonar a escola e entrar para um batalhão de pára-quedismo do exército, de onde foi logo desligado em virtude de uma fractura no joelho. Sem a escola e não podendo mais seguir carreira no exército decidiu dedicar-se exclusivamente à música, tocando em bares e clubes com o amigo Billy Cox em numa banda chamada King Kasuals. Em 1963 Mudaram-se para Nova York, onde actuou também como músicos de estúdio, gravando e tocando com os Isley Brothers, Jackie Wilson e Sam Cooke. Em 1965, numa de muitas apresentações ao vivo como acompanhante de bandas diversas, Jimi chamou a atenção de Little Richard, grande astro e pioneiro do rock and roll dos anos 50. Apesar da excelente recepção por parte do público e da boa química surgida entre o vocalista e guitarrista, o ego imenso de Little Richard não permitiria que um guitarrista talentoso ofuscasse a sua presença no palco. Com a desculpa de que Hendrix havia perdido o autocarro da banda após um show em Nova York, Little Richard demitiu-o, felizmente não antes que alguns dos shows houvessem sido devidamente gravados. Devido à excelente repercussão das suas performances com Little Richard Jimi consegue um contrato de dois anos com a editora Columbia. Rapidamente deixa de ser figurante e monta a sua própria banda, Jimmy James and The Blue Flames. O jovem guitarrista canhoto chama a atenção não apenas pelos solos imprevisíveis e de estilo inédito até a época, mas também pela extrema habilidade em tocar a guitarra com os dentes ou nas costas. Chas Chandler, baixista do grupo The Animals, ouve a banda e impressionado pede a Jimi para ser seu empresário e passa a divulgar a banda em Inglaterra. A única condição de Hendrix foi a de que, chegando a Londres, fosse apresentado a Eric Clapton, no que foi prontamente atendido por Chandler. A admiração entre Hendrix e Clapton foi mútua, apesar dos estilos diferentes. Mitch Mitchell é chamado para ser o baterista da banda, rebatizada de The Jimi Hendrix Experience. Logo gravam três singles, Hey Joe, Purple Haze e The Wind Cries Mary, seguidos de extensa divulgação em rádios e tvs inglesas. Em abril de 1967 sai o seu primeiro LP, Are You Experienced, um clássico do rock de todos os tempos. Após uma tournée como banda de apoio na Europa fazem a estreia na America no Monterey Pop Festival na Califórnia, logo após seguindo em tournée americana como banda de abertura dos Monkees. Ainda em 1967 sai o segundo álbum, Axis: Bold as Love, logo seguido por Electric Ladyland (em janeiro de 1968) que continha o hit All Along the Watchtower de Bob Dylan. Segue-se uma fase de muitas participações de Hendrix como músico ou compositor em discos de artistas diversos. A banda Experience é desfeita e Hendrix monta uma nova banda com Mitch Mitchell, Billy Cox, o segundo guitarrista Larry Lee e os percursionistas Juma Sultan e Jerry Velez. O novo nome da banda é Gypsy Sons. Logo Mitch Mitchell seria substituído por Buddy Miles e a banda mudaria de nome para Band of Gypsys. 1969 e o festival Woodstock marcam igualmente um dos pontos mais altos na carreira deste virtuoso guitarrista conferindo-lhe o estatuto de mito. Em 1970 a banda Experience seria reformulada e lançariam The First Rays of the New Rising Sun, logo depois mudando novamente de nome para Cry Of Love. Em 18 de setembro de 1970 Jimi Hendrix entrou em coma num quarto de hotel de Londres, sozinho, sendo encontrado inconsciente por uma equipa de paramédicos. A caminho do hospital foi constatada a sua morte em virtude de sufocamento por seu próprio vómito. Existem muitas controvérsias sobre a real causa da morte, mas provavelmente Hendrix terá sofrido uma overdose de pílulas tranquilizantes.

The Racialization of Jimi Hendrix Abstract The period of history immediately following World War Two was a time of intense social change. The nde of colonialism, the internal struggles of newly emerging independent nations in Africa, social and political changes across Europe, armed conflict in Southeast Asia, and the civil rights movement in America were just a few. Although many of the above conflicts have been in the making for quite some time, they seemed to unite to form a socio-political cultural revolution known as the 60s, the effects of which continues to this day. The 1960s asw a particularly intense time for race relations in the United States. Long before it officially became a republic, in matters of race, white America collectively had trouble reconciling what it practiced versus what it preached. Nowhere is this racial contradiction more apparent than in the case of Jimi Hendrix. Jimi Hendrix is emblematic of the racial ideal and the racial contradictions of the 1960s.

  • Some Economics of Flag Burning and Jimi Hendrix
    THE C RITERION J OURNAL ON I NNOVAT I ON Vol. 1 E E E 2016 Some Economics of Flag Burning and Jimi Hendrix J. Gregory Sidak* President-elect Donald Trump caused consternation three weeks after his electoral upset when he tweeted that someone who burns the American flag should be imprisoned for a year or lose his citizenship.1 Constitutional law scholars have written much about flag burning before and since the Supreme Court’s 5-4 decision in 1989 in Texas v. Johnson finding that the First Amendment protects such activity.2 President-elect Trump’s comments will probably renew debate and legal scholarship over whether the Court’s deci- sion was properly decided, whether there is any regulation of flag burning that could survive constitutional scrutiny, and, if not, whether the United States should amend its Constitution to empower Congress to punish desecration of the flag. My purpose is not to wade into those controversies, but rather to explain an economic rationale for why this particular tempest illustrates why the Court should, as a general rule, interpret the First Amendment to protect speech to a greater extent than conduct. Virtually every rule has exceptions. My focus here concerns the general rule that words tend to be clearer than actions. I. Articulate Speech My starting point is the economic theory of language. Judge Richard Posner— joined at times by William Landes—has shown how language manifests * Chairman, Criterion Economics, Washington, D.C. Email: [email protected]. I wrote most of this essay in 1989, when Texas v. Johnson was pending in the Supreme Court, but never published my thoughts before now.

  • In the Middle of 1970, Curtis Mayfield Quit the Impressions and Began One of the Most Groundbreaking and Successful Solo Careers in History
    In the middle of 1970, Curtis Mayfield quit the Impressions and began one of the most groundbreaking and successful solo careers in history. Nothing happened to force his hand—no dramatic falling out or heated argument. In his customary seat-of-the-pants way, he simply picked up the phone one evening, called fellow Impression Fred Cash, and said, “Fred, I’m going to try to go on my own and see what I can do. You and Sam [Gooden] can do the same thing. Y’all go on your own and see what you can do.” Fred called Sam and told him the news, and that was it. My father left the group. Fred, Sam, and the Impressions, three of the most important forces in my father’s life for more than a decade, no longer occupied his mind. The boyhood dreams, the endless miles traveled on tour, the lonely nights trying to steal sleep in motel beds, the harmonizing and fraternizing all came to an end. Dad struggled with the decision. For years, the three Impressions were so close that if you saw one of them, you usually saw the other two. They spent more time with each other than they did with their own wives. Yet, my father had the ability to turn off his emotions and make cold, calculated business decisions when he felt it necessary. Recalling this side of him, my brother Tracy says, “You saw a good and evil. The evil part came out when it was about business. I always separated the parent from the businessperson.
