The Experience Hendrix Tour
September 26, 2007 by Jo Minor
Fans of the legendary Jimi Hendrix can rejoice ? to some extent. No, they haven?t reanimated Jimi, or created a hologram of him of some sort. The Experience Hendrix Tour will showcase some of the greatest musicians of our time in honour of the music and the legacy of Jimi Hendrix.
?
The Experience Hendrix Tour will feature artists who will perform music written by and associated with Jimi Hendrix, including blues giant Buddy Guy, pedal steel innovator Robert Randolph, contemporary guitar greats Jonny Lang and Kenny Wayne Shepherd.
?
Special guests include Robby Krieger, guitarist of The Doors, Rolling Stones veteran guitarist Mick Taylor and Hubert Sumlin, the Mississippi-born guitarist who worked with both Howlin’ Wolf and Muddy Waters. Most remarkably, Mitch Mitchell (drums) and Billy Cox (bass), the same Jimi Hendrix Experience rhythm section that played behind Hendrix at Woodstock is the will be on hand for the Experience Hendrix Tour dates as will Chris Layton and Tommy Shannon, a/k/a Double Trouble, the late Stevie Ray Vaughan’s highly regarded rhythm section.
