DVD Uncovers JIMI HENDRIX's Guitar Work

April 24, 2007

The Associated Press reports that Guitar World magazine will release a special 16-page Jimi Hendrix tribute and an instructional DVD that shows how to play each memorable note and string-bending lick on his classic 1967 album, "Axis: Bold As Love". The DVD-magazine package hits newsstands Tuesday.

"Not only are you going to learn some of Jimi Hendrix's greatest licks," the magazine's editor-in-chief, Brad Tolinski, says on the DVD's introduction, "but we also hope to provide you with a little bit of history on the making of 'Axis: Bold As Love', as well as some insight into his creative musical genius."

The magazine tribute includes a complete biography of the guitarist and replicas of concert posters. The DVD includes original photographs and studio footage of Hendrix at work, as well as three hours of instruction covering the 13 songs on "Axis", which Tolinski describes as "the disc that captures a perfect moment in the life and career of James Marshal Hendrix."
