re: Would Jimi Hendrix be a famous musician today?

Billy strings seems to be doing alright... Was playing small venues just 3 years ago. Multiple friends have met him Now he has a Grammy wrote the music to a grateful dead song at the request of Billy Kreutzmann and every Jam band front man has sat in to play with him because he is quite possibly the best guitarist touring the world right now and a bluegrass musician at that.
