Rest in Peace Jimi Sept. 18, 1970
I try to use my music as a machine to move these people to act - to get changes done. -- Jimi Hendrix


Jimi-Hendrix's Lyrics - Angel Lyrics
Angel came down
From heaven yesterday,
Stayed with me just long enough
To rescue me....

And she told me a story yesterday;
About the sweet love
Between the moon and the deep blue sea.

Then she spread her wings high over me.
She said,’i’ll come back again to see you tomorrow....

And I said fly on, my sweet angel.
Fly on through the sky.
Fly on, my sweet angel.
Tomorrow I’m gonna be by your side....

Sure enough,
This woman came home to me.
Silver wings silhouetted against a child’s sunrise....

And my angel,
She said unto me,
’today is the day for you to rise.’
Take my hand, you’re gonna be my mind,
And she took me high over yonder.....

And I said fly on, my sweet angel.
Fly on through the sky.
Fly on, my sweet angel.
Tomorrow I’m gonna be by your side....

2. Jimi was being tailed by COINTELPRO for his antiwar stance
as an air force veteran too he had the goods on the administration's secret and immoral wars.

I saw Jimi on New Year's when he recorded the Band of Gypsys album.

Very antiwar. Very dangerous to the Nixon administration (and remember Bush and his Nazi spooks were running the republican party around this time - with deep inteligence ties going back to the Bay of Pigs and the JFK assassination).

Jimi was anothe victim - murdered by the BFEE - asphyxiated in an ambulance on the way to the hospital!

How does someone asphyxiate in an ambulance"

It was a political hit and our giant was murdered for promoting peace in a world of greed.
