The amazing drummer Buddy Miles that played with Jimi Hendrix for a couple of years in the late 60s dies on February 28, 2008. He was probably my favorite drummer of all time and was a great singer as well. He and Jimi jammed together during the late 60s and they were good friends. They recorded the album Band of Gypsys at the Filmore East which is completely incredible.

 Check out Jimi, Buddy and Billy Cox doing Machine Gun at the Filmore New Years Eve 1970.
