Details of the Artwork

Four instruments are portrayed separately. Drums, rhythm guitar, and bass are shown as a landscape. Treble in front, bass in back. Earlier notes on left. Red spires are rhythm guitar and the black and blue spires are the bass notes. Drums are the stratified silver and copper spires. Jimi's electric guitar lead has been lifted above the other parts and is shown as a vertical lattice.

Notes about the Music

Expressive instrumental solo improvisations have always fascinated music fans. James Marshal Hendrix was capable of some of the best. His musical powers were almost unlimited. Jimi was fiery and “bad” in Voodoo Child’s opening, solos, and choruses, but his optimism and playfulness come through in later sections of the lyrics. These portraits are of the fire and brimstone sections.
