A comprehensive visual celebration and ultimate tribute to the greatest guitar player in rock and roll history.

In the four years before his untimely death at age 27, Jimi Hendrix created a groundbreaking musical legacy that includes revered classics such as "Purple Haze" and "Voodoo Child."

In collaboration with Jimi’s sister, Janie Hendrix, and John McDermott of Experience Hendrix L.L.C., JIMI is an official tribute to his musical legacy. This book significantly expands on the authors' previously published titles, including An Illustrated Experience, and features:
  • A new introduction by Janie Hendrix
  • Extensive biographical texts
  • A trove of lesser-known and never-before-published photographs, personal memorabilia, and lyrics
  • Quotes by legendary musicians, such as Paul McCartney, Ron Wood, Jeff Beck, Lenny Kravitz, Drake, Dave Grohl, and others who have spoken about Hendrix's lasting influence
  • And more

JIMI is a must-have compendium for fans of Jimi Hendrix and a perfect gift for guitar, rock and roll, and pop culture enthusiasts.

4.0 out of 5 stars A lavishly illustrated biography, but lacking in analysis
Reviewed in the United States on August 19, 2023

Will the well of Jimi Hendrix ever run dry? Not for his sister Janie Hendrix and John McDermott, who are responsible for this lavishly illustrated and clearly-written book, which traces Jimi's life chronologically. As a Hendrix aficionado from the early 1970s, I tend to scrape for new insights or revelations about this large life so quickly lived out and lived up and then burned out so needlessly by recklessness.

The book moves year-by-year through Jimi's short life. The text is rather sparse, but the images are many--including posters from Hendrix concerts and many photos, some I had not seen in my many years of collecting books about the man. It is more of a report on his life and music than an interpretation of Jimi's significance for culture. It does not address his mystical-Gnostic-voodoo worldview, which was no small part of his appeal. Nor does it take seriously the controversy over why he was released from the military, which was taken up carefully in Cross's book, "Room Full of Mirrors" (2006). Jimi's story that he was injured as a paratrooper and released because of this is questionable, even if commonly assumed.

Jimi once said his religion was music, and his music was sometimes sublime. But music, even the music of the spheres, is a poor substitute for true religion, something Jimi could not provide for us.

Are you a real fan of Jimi Hendrix? Then don’t buy this. I thought it would be full of top colour photos but it’s not. It’s like someone’s badly organised scrap book with ticket stubs and posters. Not to my taste at all and was glaringly obvious the Hendrix estate wringing the last few dollars out of his memory
