eBook Jimi Hendrix: Voodoo Child: The Stories Behind Every Song ePub

Series: Stories Behind Every Song. Paperback: 144 pages. It really fills in the gaps on some of Jimi's songs, such as on Castles Made of Sand.

Series: Stories Behind Every Song. I didn't know that the first verse was about Jimi's mom and dad fighting and eventually splitting up. Or the second verse was about his troubled brother Leon.

Adding to the tedium is Stubbs's overweening adoration of Jimi Hendrix. Any negative assessment of a song is immediately, breathlessly corrected by something like "of course Hendrix's genius shines through on," ultimately making it clear that Stubbs is utterly unable to criticize any of Hendrix's work because he is just too infatuated with him. He makes it clear that he considers Hendrix "rock's only genius" and I rolled my eyes so hard at that line that my glasses broke.
