Jimi, Mitch and Noel - ultimate experience

Just heard the sad news of Mitch Mitchell's death.

Mitch was an outstanding player whose prodigious technique fuelled The Experience with some wonderful playing. When I hear all the reverential bull*** about the Weckl's and Coluita's et al (who are little more than shed demolishers to me) I think of how such as Mitch was a far, far superior player who really listened and added, as opposed to banging out one long drum solo chops-for-chopsake pap.

RIP Mitch. Another supreme member of the great jam in the sky.
