Award-Winning Finalist in the "Biography: General" category of the 2011 International Book Awards

New York Times Book Review
“Hendrix’s career as a superstar has been well chronicled; the more interesting details of how he became one are told here…[Becoming Jimi Hendrix] makes a case for the preparation that every originator should go through: follow your passion obsessively, so that when you encounter the person or thing that will change your life, you’ll be ready.”

Steve Coates, New York Times
“It’s a fascinating book for the story it tells, but I would pay the cover price just for its amazing photographs.”
