I had the Honor of giving Mitch Mitchell a Massage backstage just over a week ago at the Paramount in Denver, CO. He was ,,,,,such a beautiful man and so Happy to have a Massage that he mentioned it onstage.
I can’t express how sad and heartbroken I am to hear of his passing. Although I only knew him briefly, He left such an impression on me as no one ever has.
Peace

Need date of Jimi’s Harley and date of Mitch Mitchell’s death, I’m doing some research on
deaths of American Icon Artists and how they could possibly relate to terrorists attacks on famous musicians, or America. Yamaha started in 59. Elvis rode a 59 harley then in 77 elvis dies, the same year Yamaha makes another corporate office in the USA. That was before AMF! John Bohnman was also a brittish drummer wasn’t he?
