NEW YORK CITY CO-NAMES WEST 8TH STREET “JIMI HENDRIX WAY”

(John Anthony): “As an educator and a guitarist, I’ve always asked myself, what can I say writing lessons that wasn’t already said by every rock musician, every rock historian, and every Guitar World magazine that has come before me. And I thought to myself, it’s not necessarily the music. It’s not necessarily the playing, but it was Jimi’s ability to create something out of nothing, out of sheer curiosity, because he knew that it was going to be great, and he knew it was going to touch so many people.”
