I was too young when Jimi Hendrix was popular, but I do listen to his music when it's played on the classic rock station :)

Good music Artists, good authors, good sportsmen, good filmstars ( could go on forever) never die, they live on and we remember them, but by the third generation (grandchildren) they don't know who we are talking about! The purple swirl is very cool- imagination and fascination swirls with this haze and brings back memories of bands and singers we enjoyed! Warm regards and hugs Paul. Jenny.

Thank you so much for these insightful comments, Jenny. It is true that in time many famous people will be forgotten, except for the few whose influence will last many many years. ~ Warm regards & Hugs my friend. // paul
