Peter Schilling Major Tom coming home

ACCCK!! Heard this song on the Lincoln car commercial..... I know it's by Shiny Toy Guns in the commercial but there's nothing like the original!!!!

A new release for Jimi Hendrix?? Valleys of Neptune in March!!

Wow! I didn't know that Jimmy Hendrix had aspirations of being an artist before becoming a musician. Pretty cool. His father kept about 110 drawing he made in his high school years and they are using one of them for the album art. The final cover art is one of his drawings blended with a photo taken by Linda Eastman, better known as Linda McCartney. I ALSO didn't know Linda was a photographer or that she worked with Hendrix....must investigate that further.

I know it sucks that Jimmy doesn't know about this release. Isn't it questionable when there are posthumous releases of this sort? Who benefits exactly? I like that we get to listen to music that we didn't even know existed and enjoy some of our favorite artists creations years and years after their death. In this case, about 27 years later! Take THAT Michael Jackson! hehe....

Anyway, I will have to break down and get this... I know, I know, I'll just be making some fat cat's pocket's fatter.... but I do it for the music.... so shoot me..
