	 Overrated? Canonized? Whenever someone can make "timeless"
     music, much like the music James Marshall made, I think they
     should be rated great. Much of his studio stuff ranks up there
     with anything produced. Electric Ladyland has so many nice touches
     in terms of production, I don't think it's fair to criticize the ink the
     man got. Axis Bold as Love, the same. I'm not so hot on "Purple Haze"
     and "Foxy Lady" as most Hendrix fans but some of his less popular
     tunes, i.e., 1983 and Little Wing, show a genius which should be noted,
     talked about, ranted about and, as you call it, canonized. EXCLAMATION
     POINT.
