Angel, by Jimmy Hendrix

"I feel sad for people who have to judge Jimi Hendrix on the basis of recordings and film alone, because in the flesh he was so extraordinary. He had a kind of alchemist's ability; when he was on the stage, he changed. He became incredibly graceful and beautiful. What he played was fucking loud but also incredibly lyrical and expert. He was shy and kind and sweet, and he was fucked up and insecure. He made the electric guitar beautiful. It had always been dangerous, it had always been able to evoke anger."
