* DiedDuringProduction: Hendrix died in the middle of putting together a double album titled ''First Rays of the New Rising Sun''. The material recorded for it was subsequently released over three posthumous albums: ''Cry of Love'', ''Rainbow Bridge'', and ''War Heroes''. In 1995, producer Alan Douglas attempted to complete the album as ''Voodoo Soup''. Two years later, the Hendrix family regained control of his estate and withdrew these albums, putting out a re-compiled ''First Rays of the New Rising Sun'' (based mostly on Jimi's notes) as an "official" Hendrix album. Thanks to the longer storage capacity of the UsefulNotes/CompactDisc format, both ''Voodoo Soup'' and the 1997 version of ''First Rays of the New Rising Sun'' are on one disc each.

* PopCultureUrbanLegends: A persistent legend about Hendrix is that he was once asked in an interview what it was like to be the best guitarist in the world, and his response was "I don't know, ask [another guitarist]." The most persistent version is that the guitarist Hendrix named was Phil Keaggy, who at the time was playing with the psychedelic band Glass Harp and would later become a respected Christian rock finger-style guitarist. Keaggy, for his part, says the legend isn't true and there's no way Hendrix could have heard him play because Glass Harp only used Hendrix's Electric Lady Studios shortly after his death. Other names that have been bandied about for the quote include Music/EricClapton, Rory Gallagher, [[Music/{{Chicago}} Terry Kath]] and [[Music/ZZTop Billy Gibbons]], the latter of whom's early band the Moving Sidewalks had opened for Hendrix. In actuality, there is no evidence that Hendrix ever said this quote, and it doesn't appear in his interviews on ''Series/TheTonightShowStarringJohnnyCarson'' and ''Series/TheDickCavettShow'' where it's often claimed he said it.

The sentence makes no sense, and is also now four years out of date, the entry doesn’t lose anything by deleting it

* ArchivePanic: He only released a handful of (very influential) studio albums in his lifetime, and one all-original LP recorded live (''Music/BandOfGypsys''), but the amount of released demos, live recordings, alternate takes, rehearsals, runthroughs and incomplete studio outtakes seems staggering. New Hendrix releases still arrive on store shelves more than 40 years after his death, a staggering amount given his short lifespan. And there's more that as of 2018 await release, like the ''Black Gold'' demos.
