 Jimi Hendrix: Voodoo Child

 Just as Jimi Hendrix: Voodoo Child by Harvey and Kenneth Kubernik https://amazon.com/Jimi-Hendrix-Voodoo-Harvey-Kubernik/dp/1454937386 Published by Sterling Books New York, goes to Press (along with other Hendrix 'Experts' before them, like the Ed Chalpin/Curtis Knight tag team, Alan Douglas and Harry Shapiro), the authors had become (what they saw as) these alluring illusive visionaries, whose benign, phony ecumenical practice (done before, as mentioned above) of speaking for Black Power, was at odds with the (what they saw as), disaffected outrage expressed by young African Americans. (They of course, already being very knowledgeable about Black People and Black Lives and Black Concerns). Hmmmm.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKn8IaF1Pjs  The authors feel that their message, seeps into the reader's consciousness, with the hypnotic charge of a Snake Charmer. Because they have carefully resisted acknowledging that their political beliefs are questionable at best, and because their reach is obviously overwhelmingly White (and impressionably young), their book will sell to a pre-planned audience that will accept the authors transposing of their personal beliefs onto Jimi Hendrix; concluding with, "those were HIS beliefs". Quite a sweet chalk, snowflake job. Nice collection of photographs though. I wonder.....https://observer1984.blogspot.com/2013/01/ultimate-hendrix-illustrated.html
