Jimi Hendrix Couldn't Escape The 27 Club Curse

Plenty of rock stars have died at a young age, interestingly enough, it seems that an eerie number of popular musicians have died at the age of 27.

I’ve read that he also had wine in his lungs. Meaning he drowned in wine. Some say he was murdered for insurance money. Forced wine down his throat with pills.

Jimi Hendrix was murdered by his manager that he was trying to part ways with. The guy had a million dollar insurance policy on Jimi. The guy cashed in and a couple years later was killed in a plane crash. When the ambulance came Jimi was already cold but they took him to the hospital and when they tried resuscitation on him they turned him over and wine poured out of his body for at least a couple gallons which is impossible to do without wine in your lungs. Two guys force-fed Jimi Hendrix bottles and bottles of red wine. They held him down and forced bottles down his throat, essentially drowning him. He was murdered for the insurance policy payout.
R I P. Jimi...

I can't believe he was only 27, seriously he looked like he was in his forties

A true musical genius way ahead of his time! Gone too soon.

[joeshaw]

The best music to clear your soul with a dooby in hand.

Recording contract dispute is always a death sentence, look into it

When I think of being a guitar player, I want to be colorful as Hendrix was. His fills are sweet man.

The first member of the 27 club was blues icon Robert Johnson..Unfortunately, , the members list continues to grow.

I wasn't born until 22 years after he died, but I miss him dearly. He's one of my biggest inspirations.

[mikem]

As a ten year old Jimmy was the man. My Idol ! Can't wait to see him again !

[bluzzedude]

Technically, no, Hendrix isn't as proficient as some players who came after him but there was NEVER a guitarist who was more influential for other guitar players at making themselves better players. To become "technically" better.

Musically One Of Rocks Greatest Guitarist. RIP. “TheChef”

My brother saw Hendrix live in Seattle late 60's later on everyone he told that to said he'd been in the presence of greatness

[Alaskanson]

Tragic loss, but he left so much for us humans to try to comprehend, his music, his energy, and persona to name a few! RIP Jimi❤

[tedjohnson]

I'm still not over it.
Sad day when we lost him...

[Greyghost]

Weird how all artist who fight the system die from a drug overdose

The RNRHOF is not an authority on anything.

[rbilleaud]

I don't think anyone has an issue with accusing the RnR HoF of hyperbole. Heck, they can't even get the definition of rock and roll right.

[joansmith]

I remember when this happened. Devastating to us fans.
