Jimi Hendrix: Hear My Train A Comin', the documentary about the life of guitar legend Jimi Hendrix that aired on PBS late last year, has received two Emmy nominations.

The film which is now available on DVD and Blu-Ray was nominated for the Emmy for "Outstanding Picture Editing For Nonfiction Programming" and also for the "Outstanding Sound Mixing For Nonfiction Programming" Emmy.
