Mitch Mitchell, the drummer for the Jimi Hendrix Experience, and longtime fixture in the music business, was found dead this morning in his Portland hotel room.

Mitchell, 61, apparently died of natural causes, the Multnomah County Medical Examiner said. Mitchell was found dead at appoximately 3 a.m. in his room at the Benson Hotel in downtown Portland.


R.I.P Mitch, May you float to the see, eventually...
Even though 61 is relatively young, I'm glad to know he died of natural causes. Too many of his generation self-medicated themselves to death. Today, the wind cries Mitch.
