Jimi Hendrix Hoax Revealed

Jimi Hendrix had a son by a woman called Sunshine Story.Throughout the years Jimi Hendrix would visit his illegitamate son Jimmy Story. Sunshine believed that Jimi Hendrix was murdered by those who knew they could make more money with Jimi if he were dead than alive. This was an actual statement made by Hendrix himself. Was Jimi Hendrix murdered? And what about the lost Bolero tapes that he recorded in the livingroom of Sunshine Story's Miami Florida Apartment? Billy Yeager took a complex murder and conspiracie story, composed music that was given to the experts and dyed his skin black and convinced the press around the world that he was Jimi Hendrix's long lost son. Yeager then edited the hoax into his self- made film that he spent 25 years filming the struggle of his frustration of breaking into the music bussiness. Yeagers ingenious and complex hoax was a beautiful marketing plan that took planning and patience. Where others would have failed and given up, Yeager instead took his frustration and turned his life story into a feat of determination aand desire and allowing himself to laugh at himself and the vanity's of fame through his looking glass. The film established Yeager as a serious Independent Filmaker, Jimmy's Story has continued to capture the worlds attention and Yeager has pursued Independent filmmaking as a way of communicating with art, music, film and the message of " Film should and can make a difference". Jimi would be proud, one listen to the music and one would shiver thinking they are listening to the master himself"
