Father Told Jimi Hendrix 'You Can't Sing'
. The axe icon didn't rate his own voice � an attitude reinforced by his dad. But when he prepared to travel to the UK ahead of what would be his golden era, the star-in-waiting had a solution to the problem. Janie tells Music Radar: "Jimi never thought he was much of a singer. My dad was a decent singer and he could be brutally honest. He would say, 'You can't sing, so it's good you can play guitar.' He was very supportive of him in the guitar arena, but he was just being honest. Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
