I Don't Wanna Be in Front of Your Camera


 79 Years Ago Today

Friday 27th of November 1942
Guitarist and singer-songwriter Jimi James Marshall Hendrix is born as Johnny Allen Hendrix in Seattle, Washington, United States.
He moved to England 10 years ago. Marshall's music is composed of all his songs and he has won many awards for his work. In 1982 on an episode of "Jimi's Garage", he created the first original live album, "Jimi's Garage", which went on to be the first full length studio album and first album to be released in the United States. He also helped lead the production of many of the songs in a variety of different styles and produced many of the songs with his own vision. He started playing in the studio with the vocalist and later the acoustic organist in the band The Big Show, and is frequently seen in his band, Pink Pea, with Jimi and guitarist Bob Kelly in particular. Marshall is survived by his mom, and by his siblings, Betty Marshall and Jimi, and family, and and by his seven dogs.
Jimi is preceded in the song "Johnny Allen", with the line: Jimi: it's about you and me and my kids. Jimi sings: "Oh my gosh! I don't wanna be in front of your camera! How could you think this would be so boring! I'm really gonna love making this little shit of you!"
