Imagine: Imagine - Jimi Hendrix: Hear My Train a Comin'

PëRMBLEDHJE

Alan Yentob profiles the American guitarist who enjoyed just four years of mainstream exposure in the late 1960s, but who lives on thanks to his influential music. Jimi Hendrix was a true original, a private in the 101st Airborne who famously found an audience when former Animals bass player Chas Chandler discovered him and brought him over to the UK. He revolutionised the music scene and pushed his musical gifts to their extremes to become arguably the greatest rock guitarist of all time. Bob Smeaton's film features never-before-seen performance footage, home movies and family letters, as well as contributions by the Hendrix family, Paul McCartney and former bandmates Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell.
