Originally named James Marshall Hendrix, he was born in Seattle, Washington on October 27th, 1942. Jimi Hendrix grew up in a poor black family. He was the greatest electric guitar genius in rock history and the victim of the destructive power of the record industry in the late 1961s. Hendricks taught himself guitar when he was at school, and he was keen to listen to the works of southern blues singers, from Robert Johnson to B.B. King. In 1961, while serving as an American paratrooper, he played music in the army club and got to know the bass player Billy Cox. He helped Hendricks a lot in his later career. After retiring, Hendricks participated in some musicians' performances. Before he moved to new york, he also worked with LittleRichard, Ike and Tina Turner. When he accompanied the "IsleyBrothers", King Curtis and other bands in the black club in new york, he was discovered by industrialist Ed Chaplin, and signed a recording contract with him, which also made him the lead guitarist of the "Curtis Knight" band. At the same time, Hendricks' great talent as a guitarist was appreciated by former bassist Chas Chandler of Animals, and he made a wish to train him to be a top singer. Hendricks was moved by him and went to England with him in 1966.

In London, the band "Jimi Hendrix experience" was formed, which is a magical three-person band with lead guitar and lead singer Hendrix, bass player Noel Riding and drummer Mitch Mitchell. The band became famous almost overnight, especially Hendricks attracted great attention from the British pop music circle. It is reported that Eric Clapton and PeteTownshend watched all his performances that winter. In the summer of 1967, he successfully toured Britain, Germany and Scandinavia, and recorded the hit singles "Hey Joe" and "Purple Haze" and the album "Have you experienced it? 》（AreYouExperienced? Under the strong recommendation of Paul McCartney, he attended the Monterrey Music Festival, and his success made him among the world's top singers.

As a black singer, people noticed that his audience was almost all white, and he was the first black singer to win all white audiences. In 1969, he faced great political pressure-black unity, but he didn't understand politics, so he felt puzzled and nervous. In business, 1968 was the most successful year. Both Axis: Bold As Love)(1969) and ElectricLadyand became gold records, and he also earned a lot of money from concerts and his undisputed status as a superstar. At the end of 1968, he was regarded as the originator of other "radical rock" guitarists. His melancholy and exciting unique style embodies the strong emotion of blues music. Miles Davis of fats waller even predicted that he would become a great jazz guitarist. His performance has a strong experimental color, which brings the skills and effects of electric guitar to an incredible level.

But when he succeeded further, trouble followed. In October, 1968, he was detained for arguing with bass player Noel Reading, which marked the dramatic deterioration of the relationship between the band members. A month later, in his second tour around the United States, he gave up all the fancy and gimmicks in the stage performance and directly expressed his complicated music. This move was opposed by the audience. In order to escape this reaction, Hendricks canceled 54 performances in 47 days and drugged himself with a frenzied lifestyle of taking a lot of drugs. He lost a lot of weight and accused his manager of mismanaging his money.

In addition to the great influence of his magic on the public, 1969 was a bad year. His manager Chase Chandler was fired, the band "Jimi Hendrix Experience" was dissolved, and a drug dealer in Toronto controlled him. For a whole year, money was spent like water, and his private life became more disorderly. At the same time, he also faced great political pressure from the black audience to form an all-black band. Although he made an appearance at the Newport Music Festival, reactivated Mickey Mitchell and invited his friend Billy Cox as the bass player, his live performances were greatly reduced compared with before. A month later, he appeared at Woodstock Music Festival, which was the last climax of his musical career. In February of the same year, his all-black band ("Band of Gypsies") was finally formed, but he was not satisfied with the band's 1 th album. Soon after the concert in Madison Square Garden in new york, the "Gypsy Band" was dissolved. At this time, he is still preparing his next two-part album, FirstRays of the New Rising Sun. Hendricks reorganized the Gypsy Band, which was composed of Hendricks, Cox and Buddy Miles, and went to Hawaii to make movies, give more concerts and record in the newly-opened "Electronic Daughter Country" recording studio. In August, he left the United States for the last time to attend the Isle of Wight Music Festival. At that time, public opinion thought that his performance was not high, but in retrospect, the performance was still excellent, and the subsequent European tour was shortened. Hendricks returned to England in mid-September.

On September 8th, 1971, he died of severe vomiting and suffocation due to overdose of sleeping pills. At that time, Hendricks was under great psychological pressure, but there were various indications that he didn't commit suicide-his death was just a tragic event. Many people think that when Hendricks died, his inspiration had dried up. Rock stars should know how to protect themselves in this kind of career, but it's a pity that a person won't understand when he rises to the top, and when he does, it's too late. Hendricks never knew how to build a protective wall. We can't say that his works in the 1971s lacked creativity. Unfortunately, the profound significance of Hendricks' music has been completely changed for profit-most of the songs in the unfinished album "The First Light of the New Sun" were included in the two albums "Cry of Love" and "Rainbow Bridge" originally published by Hendricks after his death. Primal Scream's experience can be interpreted in many ways, just like British indie rock music in the 1981s and 1991s. Bobby Gillespie started his band in the mid-1981s, when he was still another noise rock band in Britain whose music style was totally opposite to Primal Scream, The Jesus &; amp; Mary Chain's drummer. After a period of punk hard rock creation, they completely transformed into a dance band in the early 1991s. Follow closely the Stone Roses and Happy Mondy's fusion of fashion and Acid－house.

In p>1991, with the assistance of producers Andrew Wertherall and Hugo Nicholson, Primal Scream created an album "Screamdelica" which completely combined indie pop music and dance music. Screamdelica broke the definition of British pop music in 1991s, and made dance music and Techno widely accepted by mainstream rock music. In 1981s, British underground music was dominated by the budding Acid－House. Primal Scream is also deeply attracted by this new dance music. Then they turned to their DJ named Andrw Weatherall to remix their old song I'm Losing More Than I'll Ever Have. Weatherall recreated this song, adding heavy bass and some echoes of reggae music, deleting most of the orchestration (even the guitar part) in the original song, and then adding a track of sampled sound effects (including a dialogue of "the wild angle" by Peter Fonda). The new remix version was named Loaded, and it was a great success. Come Together, the first single of their upcoming third album, has the same style as the previous Loaded one and has been widely praised. In Jefferson Airplane's early works, there are not only the theme of promoting fraternity and opposing war, but also their experience of drugs. In the later stage of the band's development, the theme of "love" was rarely used in the works, and some works with strong political inclination were replaced, which may be caused by the loss of the "hippie" movement. They added synthesizers to their later music and created electronic experimental music, which greatly enriched and expanded the expressive force of various electronic instruments. It can be said that they created a relatively high-level music in the rock music era dominated by noise at that time. What is particularly worth mentioning is the album Sorrealist Pillow that we just talked about. It is a rare masterpiece combining hippism with rock music. Let's listen to the Third Week in the Chelsea brought by other members of the band. This song is an absolute folk work.

After more than 21 years of vicissitudes, from the earliest Jefferson Airplane to Jefferson Starship and then to Starship, although the name of the band was constantly changing, their music was still successful from time to time even in the late 1981s. Finally, let's say goodbye in a familiar song Nothing's Ganna Stop Us Now. The band was formed in 1964. At first, the name of the band was "Warlocks", and later the members of the band began to take LSD military books; And created a precedent of "psychedelic rock". At the same time, they became the first band to improvise after taking drugs. It was also during this period that the band changed its name to "The Grateful Dead". In 1966, the band became famous in the underground music world, and their music covered everything from minor to hard rock. In the summer of 1967, the band participated in Raymond Music Festival and was praised as the best band in the music industry. In the same year, the band released its first album of the same name, which was called psychedelic rock sung by blues. In 1968, due to the bad relationship with the signing company, the second album "Anthem of the Sun" was not excellent. From 1967 to 1969, the band toured and released the third album "Aoxomoxoa", and the results were still not satisfactory. In 1971, the live double albums Live/Dead, Workingman's Dead and American Beauty were all successful, and the last two albums were the best-selling albums in the band's history. Since then, the band and its members have released many albums and have been touring. During this period, the album "In the Dark" was considered as the best work and won the first hit song "Touch of Gery" for the band. Jerry Garcia died in 1995 and the band broke up. The Grateful Dead system introduced a free music form into rock music, and their music showed that they were constantly developing their musical ideals.
