The great drummer Mitch Mitchell passed away in Portland OR. after the last show of the Experience Hendrix Tour. He apparently died of natural causes. Mitch was a friend and I will always be grateful for his incredible contributions to drumming.

That is some news, quite a life he had and that he was playing and touring with some of the greatest up to the end. He certainly left a legacy...
Interesting read on Wikipedia. Noted that his background was in jazz initially.
thoughts go out to those closest to him...

Michael, Sorry for the loss of your friend. For the rest of us that never knew him aside from his amazing musical contribution to the world, his spirit lives on forever in the music. Axis Bold As Love is a masterpiece.

Peace

For you, a friend, I have never met. I have always admired you drumming works. I am a fan of yours, from day one. You have, and always will be a inspiration for me and countless others. All I can really say, is thank the heavens for souls like yourselves.
