    Thanks to JAC for remembering it and to his mother for linking him.

    That's an awful likeness on the stamp ,I have to say.

    Jimi's so cool, he's on a stamp.

    Each one contains a hit of acid. That's why they cost so much.

    Jason, I'm going to hurry out, buy some Jimi stamps and test your theory. If you all don't hear from me from some time -- don't worry.

    I think Jimi was one heck of a man on the guitar. He burned out far more quickly than Ray Charles, which may be a comment on the physical impact of LSD vs heroin? Or maybe not.

    I think of the concert on the Isle of Wight with Jimi, cross eye'd Johnny Winter and the old crew - and it's really no wonder that they didn't last that long.

    They flowered just long enough to spread the seed.

    Jeebus, how come everybody who comments here wears shades?

    Is the light that bright?

    Where's my soft candlelight?
