Agreed. One of the holy trinity of great rock drummers, Bonham, Moon, and MItchell. Sad. Its a shame that most of this obit focuses on the differences between Noel Redding and Jimi, when it should really focus on how Mitch was one of the first drummers to make the the instrument the lead in a rock track. Mitch and Jimi's interplay was fabulous, and Redding provided the much needed backbone. (listen to some live Hendrix stuff to see what I mean) The first great power trio ever. RIP
