Tracy Chapman talks about Jimi Hendrix

Jimi Hendrix died 40 years ago tomorrow September 18 2010, The San Diego Union Tribune asked some famous artists to say what he still means to them, Tracy Chapman answered:  “It’s a given that Hendrix was a very talented guitarist. He was doing his own thing, instead of what was expected of black musicians at the time. Having listened to his records for a long time, I have a great appreciation for his technique and innovation.”
