Jimi Hendrix Had A Brother? Leon Hendrix Band Releases Their CD;
âKEEPER OF THE FLAMEâ Lyrics Touch On a Story of the Hendrix Brothers Childhoods in the Central District, History Is Made

The âKEEPER OF THE FLAMEâ CD is at last being released by
The Leon Hendrix Band! You can strip the long hair and the exotic Cherokee chiseled looks from Jimi Hendrixâs baby brother but you can't miss certain unmistakable qualities in that voice. With Leonâs own strong, powerful lyrics coming straight from the love in his heart and an art for keeping life real through his own style of music, the messages that Leon spells out as the KEEPER OF THE FLAME reflect the passion and truth that ribbon through the Hendrix Legend.

Leon Hendrix and his power drivin' band are rockin' stages from Seattle to Vegas, California and beyond

The four-member group is comprised of Leon Hendrix, lead singer and lead guitarist; Mark Stella on bass guitar and background vocals; JYPSYEYE a.k.a. Stefen Isaac on guitar; with Neil Kirkland handling the keyboard, percussion, and background vocals. Their music is deep, reflects the soul, and has a mystical array.

Lyrics Touch On Story of the Hendrix Brothersâ Childhood

Throughout the new KEEPER OF THE FLAME release, the listener is welcomed to a little "pow-wow!" As you sit on the branches of the Hendrix family tree, simply sway in the breeze and feel free to just rock out as Leon reveals story upon story of his true feelings. The touching Blue September is a heart warmer. It's almost as if you, the listener, are eavesdropping on a one-sided conversation between the two Hendrix Brothers as Leon pours out questions to his big brother about what it will be like when the two see each other in Heaven. You can almost feel older brother, Jimi Hendrix, rocking out with him in spirit! Leon often feels his brotherâs presence while playing, and the band members have felt chills while playing, as though Jimi is enjoying the music right along with them. While the CD was being recorded at Self Adhesive Records in Seattle, Washington (published by L Hendrix Music), a purple glow was reported seen by drummer Neil Kirkland.

KEEPER OF THE FLAME is more than Hendrix Legacy

Leon and the band also show their Patriotic American pride on the cut, FLIGHT 93, which starts off with a haunting melodic keyboard brilliantly played by Neil Kirkland. Then Leon speaks from his patriotic heart about his dedication to all the heroes on that dreadful day, as the band rips into the song with metal "balls to the wall" force! If music is truly the sound track of our lives, you can almost sense at which point in the music the heroes became... well, Heroes of FLIGHT 93!

My choice track on the CD really has nothing to do with it being "Hendrix" at all, except maybe for the "Cajun Gypsy" feel in the music that flows deep in the Hendrix blood from Leon and Jimi's Mama's side of the gene pool. It's a track called Voodoo River, and once again history is made in Leon's own right...Hendrix style!

May the "KEEPER OF THE FLAME" blaze on into a bright future!
