According to Hiphopdx.com, Seattle's Experience Music Project/Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame (EMP/SFM) announced the opening of the second original installment of the exhibition dedicated to the legendary JIMI HENDRIX.
Jimi Hendrix: An Evolution of Sound, set to open April 26, 2008, focuses on how Hendrix affected popular music across the world using his unique guitar sound and his influence on culture, nearly 40 years after his death.
"This new exhibition will illustrate Hendrix's musical evolution in five stages, from his early days in Seattle, to his time as a journeyman musician touring the southern "chitlin' circuit" and in New York City, to his explosion on the popular music scene in London and beyond," said Jacob McMurray, senior curator at EMP|SFM. "The exhibition will weave together the various musical styles and cultures that Hendrix soaked up throughout his all-too-short journey."Read more here.
