Psychedelic rock

Jimi Hendrix is a Psychedelic rock act. Their sound grew out of Bob Dylan, Chuck Berry, The Who, Cream and Bob Babbitt.

They run in the same orbit as Cream, Big Brother & The Holding Company, Derek and the Dominos, Jefferson Airplane and Ten Years After, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Red Hot Chili Peppers, Queen, The Who, The Police and Lenny Kravitz, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
