A fact? Right, ok, based on what measurement? So you think back during his time, no MTV, no internet, no real mass media, Hendrix got more media attention than bands of today? Well, I guess if it's a fact we can't argue with it. :-s Wait wait wait wait, I never ever compared Hendrix's media attention to today's standard. Im saying since all the cameras were pointed at him in the day, it's only logical that in our age, he's one of the only guitarists we know about. Today it's even worse, Hendrix actually had some talent, now most bands which are on TV have absolutely no talent whatsoever.
