In Memory

Hey Joe, your mama weren’t home but the lights were on
A distant cloud clanged by with thunderous melody
Deep purple fell from the sky, raining down a dream
And, we all had to hide in our little yellow submarines
Oh death, where hast thou taken me, through love
Oh brother, where art thou , now cries the wind
Well, I’m standing next to a mountain, give me shelter
Brown sugar, just like I knew you would, in the ghetto
Give me shelter, and a little tea and sympathy
As we watch tears, and red balloons, go by

(If you behave, maybe I’ll put it on a t-shirt, later! )

Music:

Hey Joe
Addicted to Love
The Wind Cries Mary
Purple Rain
Purple Rain
Purple Haze
Running Down A Dream
Deep Purple Dream
Oh Brother, Where Art Thou (the whole movie)
Oh Death (from the above mentioned movie)
Voodoo Child
As Tears Go By
Yellow Submarine
Stand Next To Your Fire
99 Luft Balloons
Brown Sugar
Give Me Shelter
In The Ghetto
Let It Bleed

Though, not necessarily in that order!

You know, I just realized that Jimi Hendrix had wonderul posture! Which is odd, considering many guitarists claim that you HAVE to have bad posture to be good! lol I guess you don’t need it to be friggin’ phenomenal, though, so straighten up boys!

I also realized, even officially, that is on books and records and such, there is at least three ways to spell Jimmy, Jimmie, Jimi’s name and it’s no wonder I get confuzzled!

MUSICAL ART PEOPLE: There is a musical instrument, musical notes, and a musical man, and a poem regarding musical history. Deal!

Other people: learn the definition of homage, and “not what it seems” because this is not who you think it is, or about whom you think it is. The variety of music should give you a clue. This is a pile of digitalized paint which is my memory, my feelings, and of my originality.

    Woo Woo Woo- Most AWESOMENESS- I think Jimi would approve xxxx

  • Arletta replied

    lol It’s all your fault, you know? Well, except for what is his. I mean, I keep running into your t-shirt of him- or the print version of same. It’s very inspirational! Only, as you see, yours is monochrome and mine is .. insane? lol

  • Arletta replied

    PS: I am pretty sure at some point in his life, Jimi not only approved, but, he saw it crawling across his ceiling, being escorted by purple dwarves!
