I was born in 1997 that style has died far before my time yet Jimi Hendrix is the only old school musician that I am a fan of. A few songs here and there for other old school artists but an actual fan of Jimi Hendrix and i can guarantee you it has absolutely nothing to do with style.

I take more from disliked comments than upvoted because youre all crazy brainwashed idiots that i troll the fuck out of. This isnt s troll, more of a blowing steam rant of annoyance,
