Very Nice
Found out this was just a few miles from my hotel, it is a small memorial park and very well kept. The grave site is beautiful and visited often as you can tell from the gifts left for this legend. Only takes a few minutes if you're in the area, worth the stop

Strange of course
Always revered Jimi Hendrix as I am also a guitar player. It was a solemn and wonderful experience visiting his grave all these years. I think I prefer it back when it was a simple gravestone. It was a simple Granite stone with his name and the date and the grass was worn and muddied all around it from people walking and paying their respects. There were always flowers and offerings at the site. However now, it's been turned into a bit of a temple and I don't think Hendrix would have approved. From what I understand he was a very simple down-to-earth guy. Remember, he was a hippie and really didn't care for Earthly possessions. The only reason I give this five-stars as out of my respect for the man himself. The shrine they have built is a bit ridiculous
