'Voodoo Chile'(slight return)..still makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.
The opening muted wah guitar just says it all
and then that phrase followed by a thunderous power opening...jeeze it just does it for me all the time

Is there anything besides glue to lick on the back?

I think it is really a statement about the human experience and our nation/culture that a guy who was considered a drug-addict-hippie-subversive by the government over 40 years ago is today honored by that same government.

Yeah, but he only gets a stamp; Jamaica has Marley on their freakin' money!

So how many of these would you need to send a postcard to the UK? I'd be interested in sending some cash to cover the costs if anyone's interested in playing along. Our stamps all feature the queen but it's the wrong one ! :-)

They are First Class Forever stamps.  Currently, first class here is $.49.  They come in sheets of sixteen for $7.68.  Send me your mailing address and I'll send you a sheet gratis.  Us Little British Car guys have to stick together!  lol

I would like them better if they looked more like Hendrix instead of Bernie Mac.

Bill. You are a star. Mailed you.  How did the upholstery on the TR turn out?

The back side of the sheet  that the stamps all stick to is a large version of the image and about 7X7 . It is suitable for framing .

The new interior turned out very nicely - as good looking as a Jimi Hendrix stamp (see, staying on topic!).  I'm now working on restoring a steering wheel for it.

Jimi has left the building.  Should arrive on your doorstep in 7-10 days.  Enjoy.
