Eclectic Electric

Fender strung upside down big hands pressing strings to frets. Woodstocks’ last scheduled act, Jimi exercized his “Right to Free Speech.” The world heard an eclectic electric version of “Star Spangled Banner.” Those notes still reverberate “All Along the Watchtower.” “Hey Joe,” “Are You Experienced?” “WELL, I AM !” *To honor Jimi Hendrix in Raul Moreno's contest.
