able to capture him yet. Once I heard Jimi, I could listen to anything he'd ever done, because it made sense. It took me listening to The Wind Cries Mary to really start paying attention, but when I finally bought Axis and heard the intro to Little Wing, I was with him. I haven't heard Dilla's Little Wing yet.

I think Dilla's peers that really appreciate him saw: him work, create, the passion, the pain... they loved him. To them, there may
never be another Dilla... likewise, to Jimi's peers, there will never be another Jimi.
