Jimi Hendrix tribute rocks your PSP

Legendary


Who says the PSP can't have funk and soul? With Jimi Hendrix slated to come to your favorite handheld, let's see you change your mind. Most of you will probably be too young to even have an iota of a clue as to who this legend is. Trust us, he's cool. And as your parents most probably know him, they might turn out to be cool as well. Or not. But let's not get into that.

The famed Hendrix is considered as one of the most influential guitarists in rock music history, as well as songwriter and singer. If you're making good use of the GuitarHelper and Tuner 'brew on your PSP, and you feel like you could use some guiding light in your quest to becoming a rockstar via your PSP, then this could be the perfect opportunity for you.

Although none has been spotted in North American shores, a UMD disc released in tribute of Hendrix is already out in Japan. With eleven song clips like "Purple Haze" and the classic "Star Spangled Banner" Woodstock video, this should most definitely up your inclination for music. And it may very well inspire you, too. Hendrix, after all, is the guru himself.

Now, as the UMD is region 2 encoded, it will only work if you got your PSP from Japan or Europe. Ironic, isn't it, that America's very own legend can't be brought home.

Boy I can't wait to get it and for along time now I wanted to know what Jimmy Hendrix is like (Hahaha too lazy to take Jimmy's tracks from my bro's computer) and I hope it comes to Singapore... Besides everyone or at least my bro goes "His a Guitar Guru"...

to be fair, hendrix got his start in the UK. it wasnt until afterwards his music became popular in the us. at that time in the sixties, most american listeners would have labled him as just "black music" or really wouldnt have been ready for his music. in other words you could say he was part of the british invasion.
