Part 1 of 2 - The Death of Jimi Hendrix

Jimi Hendrix was one of the most influential guitarists of the
1960s. His Rock and Roll Hall of Fame biography says
he "was arguably the greatest instrumentalist in the history
of rock music." But the details of Hendrix's death on
September 18th, 1970, are still unclear and widely disputed. The
official ruling is that Hendrix had aspirated his own
vomit and died of asphyxia while intoxicated
with barbiturates, citing "insufficient evidence of
circumstances." It was recorded as an open verdict. Was it an
accident, suicide, or murder? Learn more about your ad choices.
