Jimi’s Coming To Rock Band… Maybe

Author: Vince | Date: February 22, 2010

In a recent interview with the LA Times Jimi Hendrix’s stepsister, Janie, about the future of Hendrix’s music in the face of the new album of unreleased material due out later this year, “Valleys of Neptune“.  During the interview she says that a Hendrix version of Rock Band will see the light of day before the end of this year. Before you explode with joy let me slightly deflate your bubble slightly, Joystiq did the legwork and contacted Harmonix to deny or confirm this startling announcement and got this reply:-

“While we have not made any official announcements regarding Jimi Hendrix and Rock Band, we are excited to say that we are in discussions to bring more of his music to our platform. Stay tuned.”

Seems like a no brainer to tie it into the release of the new album on March 9th if you ask me, but I guess we’ll see soon.
