This review is from: Jimi Hendrix a Visual Documentary (Paperback)

Tony Brown has painstakingly put together what appears to be a quite accurate almost day by day diary of Jimi's brief career. He lists the dates Jimi went into the studio, the various concerts he played and other activities Jimi did such as specific days of when he was interviewed or on TV. It is in calendar form so it goes from beginning to end, obviously mainly from 1966 to 1970. This is a great way to read about Jimi's life. It has less opinion and more statement of fact, as best as Mr. Brown could reconstruct from his research. There's always some controversy here and there when books about Jimi are published but this book seems to provide a very sensible presentation of Jimi's life as it actually appears to have happened. As a big Jimi fan I was delighted to find this book and delve into it. Based on going over a few other Jimi books this one appears to be right in step with others, that is, it does appear to be a quite realistic reporting of how Jimi's life went, pretty much day to day in his famous years. Thanks Mr. Brown, a great read. [e-mail]
