6. SOUNDBITE (English) Bob Santelli/Executive Director of Grammy Museum:
"Well, the Grammy Museum''s newest exhibit, "Strange Kozmic Experience," is about the seminal artists in the late sixties rock and roll history. The Doors, Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin and together, these three artists really did a whole lot in the late sixties to create one of the most fertile, one of the most creative periods in all of rock history. The interesting thing about them and why the exhibit is taking place now is because we are celebrating the 40th anniversary of the death of Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin. Forty years ago, both at the age of twenty seven they passed. In 1971, Jim Morrison does too. You take these three artists out of the picture, rock and roll and rock in particular on the west coast was vastly, well stifled. It was stifled. It took a brand new direction in the 1970''s perhaps in wouldn''t have taken had these three artists lived."

9. SOUNDBITE (English) Bob Santelli/Executive Director of Grammy Museum:
"Well, Strange Kozmic Experience, a lot of people are asking, ''Where did you come up with that name?'' Obviously there is a connection to these three artists. Strange comes from ''People are Strange'', a Doors single, and one of the most important ones. Kozmic, relates to Janis Joplin. She had a Kozmic blues band at one time just after leaving Big Brother and the Holding Company. Of course, Experience, Jimi Hendrix''s first album, ''Are You Experienced'', and it was in Jimi Hendrix''s Experience. So, the idea was to connect the three artist musically, philosophically and in ways that highlighted their connection to the 60''s counter culture. So, when you walk around the exhibit you are going to see great photographs, seminal photographs from the era from some of the best photographers. You are going to see rare film clips and footage. You are going to hear music. You are going to see objects. Not just objects, for instance, what we are trying to do is reveal something about each of the artists in a way that the big fans of these artists didn''t know about them or hadn''t experienced before."
