HAPPY 'DEATH'DAY TO...JIMI HENDRIX
18th September, 1970
Controversy still surrounds his death, but then everyone loves a good conspiracy and shouldn't let facts get in the way...
apparently his then girlfriend Monika Dannemann could have been a bit more 'pro-active' in phoning for an ambulance a little earlier than she did...but hey, we weren't there, so we'll never know.

HAPPY 'DEATH'DAY TO...MARC BOLAN
16th September, 1977
In what continues to be a highly popular month for rock stars to make a dramatic, early exit, we wish a happy deathday to Marc Bolan.
And we don't need the old gag about "what was Marc Bolan's last hit...?" do we....!

THE STAR SPANGLED BANNER...
14th September, 1814
On this day, The Star Spangled Banner was born...Francis Scott Key wrote the lyrics. But, let's face it, the truly definitive version is Hendrix's feedback-soaked rendition from Woodstock innit?!
Hendrix appeared on the Dick Cavett Show and was told to expect hate mail after 'daring' to play the song on his guitar. Hendrix replied, "well they made me sing it at school..."
When asked if he thought it was a little "unorthodox", Hendrix said, "Unorthodox? I thought it was beautiful..."

HAPPY 'DEATH'DAY TO...KEITH MOON
September 7th, 1978
One drink too many (or maybe about thirty-one drinks too many!) for Moon The Loon...another tragic waste of talent at 32 years old. Still, there probably wasn't much more to do after driving a Lincoln into a swimming pool - not a Rolls Royce...
