In this context, he made the leap to England, to a London that welcomed with open arms the blues that came from the other side of the ocean and made it his own. During the 1960s, many of the voices of that time in North America were dedicated to protest song, but Jimi took another path, from the beginning he dedicated himself to pay homage with his voice to peace and love. He was so surprised that he abandoned his music career to become his manager. His big moment came when the bassist of the group The Animals, Chas Chandler, discovered him playing in a New York bar in 1966. Curiously, after his death, a bust of him was placed in the school. However, the principal insisted that it was actually because of his continued absences and poor school performance. Jimi said he was expelled from school for holding his white girlfriend’s hand.
