    Oh my.. this is HUGE news. I've actually never looked into Hendrix aside from what I've heard on the radio. I'm really excited that I'm gonna be able to discover his classic albums through Rock Band. :D

    This definitely confirms we'll be getting all of Are You Experienced? and Electric Ladyland~ and some post-humous songs as well.

    Also the possibility of a Hendrix in game avatar, replica instruments, and maybe his own Rock Band game?! Wow... just wow~
