Wozza Woz V The Jimi Hendrix Experience

tim posted this 13th November 2008 12:44pm

At the the do lectures i had the pleasure of meeting the local legend known as `wozza `woz. A true hip hop head and a fella with an unhealthy interest in 12 vinyl and bmx bikes, and also a good friend of the cardigan howies crew.

After chatting for some time about our record collections he promised me a remix. Well this morning when i woke up miserable with a sore throat, a dangly bell in the back of my throat and a spazzy back i was sure not much was going to make me smile, well when the postman came with a little square pack i sure was suprised, the little bugger had finally sent it. I put it on straight away and it’s fantastic, smiles started coming fast.

Then i started to feel better, checked my emails, nothing out of the ordinary, then checked out my morbid fascination with the obituaries columns in the dailies. Mitch Mitchell one of the greatest drummers of all time had passed away, a bummer for any music fan.

Jimi hendrix was backed by englishman Mitch who is a incredible percussionist and matched on bass by another other english lad called Noel Redding who passed away in 2003. So there’s no one left from that band, now all we have is the music. So off comes the wozza cardigan crew remix  and here come the boys who rocked the world.

    Good on ya Tim.
    I love it that you (like myself) are not as near to our youth as we would possibly like, but we can spread the love of Bikes, Music, Film and just living life to the next generation – my son is now discovering music and although I don’t wanna influence his choices – I’d be gutted if Jimi and crew were not in his playlists.

    Loving ya work.

    quite right markie, someone has to be in charge of quality control and influence is good, they’ll appreciate it. Stealing from them is good too i have learned. saw clinic at the thekla on friday, brilliant. all the best and have a great weekend
