Discover Musician’s London Home at Hendrix in Britain
Hendrix in Britain offers music enthusiasts the chance to look back on the legendary guitarist’s history in a venue he once described as his “first real home”.
Plenty of people booked in at Hyde Park Hotels over the coming weeks will be familiar with at least a few of Jimi Hendrix’s tunes, which include Hey Joe, Stone Free and The Wind Cries Mary.
The exhibition is being held at the Handel House Museum to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the musician’s death.
It will focus on his performances and lifestyle in the English capital, with the display available to view until November 7th 2010.
Hendrix is not the only famous musician to have lived in the building - on Brook Street in Mayfair - with composer George Frideric Handel also having resided there for 36 years.
Die-hard fans may wish to get their tickets soon, particularly if they want to attend an additional event that will see the whole building open to the public for 12 days, which normally only occurs on special occasions.
Hendrix lived at 23 Brook Street with his partner Kathy Etchingham from 1968, with the musician passing away two years later on September 18th.
