who was he again?

I feel bad I didn't even know Noel Redding was dead. I remember him on Howard Stern about 10 years ago.
Mitch was a great drummer, but never part of Band of Gypsies. That was Jimmy, Buddy Miles and Billy Cox.
Mitch returned to Jimi after Band of Gypsies with Billy Cox on bass. Jimi and Noel had a falling out.

What freaks me out most is that I'm 26 now.
Hendrix died at 27 and had achieve so much, changing the face of guitar forever?What have I achieved so far??
I suppose I've wasted more time on the internet than Hendrix could even dream of doing- if Hendrix had the internet he'd be on it all day watching videos of star-trek and bad sci-fi flicksdoesnotexist

So sad that there's no more experience left. Amazing trio, way ahead of their time.
Mitch was a great drummer, the fact that he was still drumming for the band of gypsies (predominantly a black group) is testament to that. I preferred him to buddy miles.He does a great solo in the woodstock concert, I think with his bare hands
- buddy miles was solid at keeping time, but all together just an average drummer.7point34
- buddy was great as well, just a different sort of drummer. Mitch challenged jimi, where buddy let jimi soar...TheBlueOne
