Product Information

Still, Hendrix always maintained the song was less about drugs and more about dreams, science fiction, and redemption. That’s Jimi for you. His loud and riotous music symbolizes the soul of the ’60s, but his artistic genius has transcended the decades. Born on November 27, 1942, Hendrix’s journey was a testament to the power of passion, determination, and talent. The journey was far from easy; he cut his teeth on the chitlin’ circuit, touring southern bars with bands like the Isley Brothers and Little Richard.

The vinyl set starts with a trio of all-time greats, including Jimi Hendrix as Purple Haze, and Elvis. Marking his iconic status, two versions of the "King" include 1950's Elvis and 1970's "Aloha" Elvis. Moving to a more theatrical look, the members of KISS are featured in their famous on-stage makeup. The original line of the song, “Purple Haze, Jesus Saves,” was later changed to fit the secular tone of the 1960s counterculture. As a self-taught guitarist, Hendrix was free from the constraints of traditional musical education.The addition of his signature round sunglasses adds a touch of authenticity, while his calm and composed expression truly captures his persona. Here, producer Chas Chandler discovered him and recognized the prodigious talent that had yet to bloom fully. He developed his style playing in small clubs in New York’s Greenwich Village, blending blues and R&B into a heady mix that turned heads and captured attention. He never sought approval, but his raw passion for music and commitment to freedom of expression resonated with global audiences. It is achieved by recording at half speed, showcasing Hendrix’s inventive approach to music production.

Though Hendrix learned from these pioneers, he was not a mere imitator. Instead, he absorbed their craft and their musical vocabulary and then reimagined it all in his own vision.You can almost hear the opening notes of “Purple Haze” looking at it. The vinyl figure brilliantly captures Hendrix’s style. And there, securely gripped in his hands, is the famed Fender Stratocaster, portrayed in a conventional position, true to the original.

It would be a valuable addition to the AC/DC collection!In this Funko Pop! figure, Jimi’s larger-than-life persona is neatly encapsulated in 3.75 inches of vinyl. He spun dreams and science fiction into a compelling lyrical tapestry while challenging the boundaries of electric guitar with experimental techniques. His on-stage antics, from playing his guitar with his teeth to setting it ablaze, may have raised eyebrows, but they also laid bare his unapologetic authenticity.
