Jimi Hendrix’s Spirit Took Over on Acid — A New Understanding

This is a story from a formative psychedelic experience that I had. Playing guitar while tripping was more than just a jam session. It was a vortex of cosmic energies, primal instincts and expression. It wasn't until this experience that I understood the psychedelic essence of jimi hendrix, who truly represented what the 60's american counterculture was about. There is something otherwordly about his music, like he came here from some cosmic exoplanet. But that's the thing, the Earth is a cosmic place and he just showed it to us.

Being interested in this topic, you often hear many of the same ideas being recycled. That was not the case in my conversation with @TheTripWhip from Australia! He genuinely had an original perspective that was intriguing to hear, and it was very refreshing. Check out the chapter titles to see some of the fascinating areas we got into in our discussion! Feel free to contribute to this conversation like you're part of it too. I'd love to know if any of this resonated with you or if it gave you some more thoughts.
