Man, what a bummer. That is terrible news. Mitch Mitchell is one of the finest drummers in Rock history, he leaves a deeper legacy than he knows.
At least the JHE can all jam together now, in that Purple haze above, as they "kiss the sky"

One could tell Mitch Mitchell's drumming even without the music.
Fantasic, mixing his jazzy style with Hendrix' madness.
Man, I can't even pick a favorite MM/JHE tune.
Manic Depression's drum riff keep going through my head.
Mitch was brilliant.
RIP
