Augusta, GA – Jimi Hendrix’s relationship with the Black Community has often been maligned, misunderstood, and misrepresented. Author Corey Washington wanted to develop a vehicle to address the complex relationship in its entirety. Jimi Hendrix – Black Legacy does that, and then some.
Washington’s journey to Hendrix all started with a wrestling entrance song for wrestler Hulk Hogan, which grew into 20 years of research. Finally, that research has been developed into a book that compiles a wide variety of documentation on Jimi’s impact on Black Culture.

Highlights of Jimi Hendrix – Black Legacy:

• In-depth interviews with family, friends, and admirers
• Examination of his impact on Funk, Jazz, R&B, etc.
• Comparison of Jimi and Prince
• Behind the scenes – Jimi’s induction into R&B HOF
• Mini Band of Gypsys Book (10 Chapters)
• Jimi’s Hidden R&B Legacy
• Jimi’s unsung impact on Black/Urban radio via musical conduits
