I saw 'Experience Hendrix', the tribute concert to Jimi, last year. It was great. Mick Taylor was phenomenal. I thought Mitchell looked rather old and was shocked to read he was only 61.
Unfortunately, time & "recreational" pursuits take their toll....RIP.
I love Mick Taylor.....how's he looking? It's a matter of genes and luck for some. Look at Clapton. He looks a health nut that never did anything on the wild side. If affects us all differently.

I was shocked to hear the sad news about Mitch Mitchell. I knew he had just completed a short tour with the Experience Hendrix tribute and hoped that I would get a chance to see him perform some day.
The Jimi Hendrix Experience has been a huge part of my life.
Rest in peace, Mitch, and thank you for all the great music!
Mitch Mitchell
