Did prince learn from jimi hendricks?

More than you even know. Prince's animalistic guitar screams all pay homage to Jimi Hendrix. Even when Prince is playing the guitar he copies Hendrix's stage presence. By this I mean, Hendrix would play a chord then sweep his left hand in the air and Prince does the same thing except sweep his right hand in the air. Prince also pretends to have sex with his guitar on stage, an act Hendrix made famous during his brief time. So basically Prince learned a lot from Hendrix.

Says! ~> "insufficient evidence of circumstances", open verdict." let me add some more information from the medical examiner for all you that know/think Jimi was a Heroin Addict! ~> To determine the cause of death, the coroner, Gavin Thurston, ordered a post-mortem examination on Hendrix's body, which was performed on September 21 by Professor Robert Donald Teare, a forensic pathologist.[63]Teare reported that Hendrix was "well nourished and muscular", and he identified a quarter-inch scar on Hendrix's left wrist.[64][nb 15] He said that there were "no stigmata of [intravenous] drug addiction. Once these marks are there [in the skin], they never go away. In this case, there were no marks at all."[66]Although Teare observed that the right side of Hendrix's heart was widely dilated, he found no evidence of valvular heart disease. He discovered a partially collapsed left lung and 400 ml of fluid in Hendrix's chest.


How did Jimi Hendrix get started?

Jimi Hendrix's first major recording was with the Isley Brothers (known for the original "Twist and Shout" later covered by the Beatles) but was eventually fired out for his stage antics, and tendency to draw the crowd to him, instead of the Isley Brothers. Afterwards, he joined Little Richard's band, and was fired for the same reason. After moving to England and making the Jimi Hendrix Experience, he gained major popularity in the United States after his Hit single "Hey Joe", followed by his appearance at the Monterey Pop Festival during the Summer of Love.
