Have you ever been re-experienced? The original bands are no longer going concerns, but the music of Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix and other classic-rock heroes is evergreen, with younger generations discovering music known well by parents and grandparents. And so, serving nostalgia and new crowds alike, touring road shows Experience Hendrix, Jason Bonham’s Led Zeppelin Experience and Classic Albums Live do big business.

Experience Hendrix members, including Ernie Isley, Chris Layton, Johnny Lang, Steve Vai, Eric Johnson and John McDermott, will be the featured guests on the nationally syndicated radio show Rockline with host Bob Coburn on Wednesday October 27, 2010 at 8:30pm PT / 11:30pm ET.

In a feature article, CNN spoke with Janie Hendrix and others about Jimi Hendrix’s impact on music, and discussed how some of the recordings on “West Coast Seattle Boy” may give listeners more insight into how Jimi was evolving as an artist.

Jimi Hendrix’s new single, an alternate version of “Love Or Confusion,” has jumped up Billboard’s Hot Singles Sales Chart to No. 4 from No. 25 in the magazine’s October 16th issue. The track also will be included in the upcoming release of “West Coast Seattle Boy – The Jimi Hendrix Anthology” 5-disc boxed set, which hits stores on November 16th.
