Davis, California musician Tony Ranier of Blue Cheer, who was the guitarist on their 80s Megaforce label comeback album "The Beast Is Back," has passed away, it looks as though he died one year ago and it wasn't even posted in the Blue Cheer group on Facebook until a year later.

The Jimi Hendrix Axis: Bold As Love heavily bootlegged outtake that is supposedly w/ Brian Jones but is really w/ Dave Mason and Noel Redding, alternately titled "Hey Little One" or just "Little One." https://t.co/kAIaP0IPx6

@crockpics His Mom was Lucille. They also gave up their children after Jimi and Leon for adoption and fostering.

@crockpics It's recently come to light that Leon Hendrix is Jimi's half brother, on their Mom's side. Looks like she had an affair but Al Hendrix still raised Leon as his son. Jimi and Leon's stepsister Janie Hendrix still has Leon cut out of Jimi's publishing and royalties revenue.
