"I am Gabu, the pub's owner. Do you want some drink? Do you like it on the rocks? HEY! The drink, you moron!
The drinks are cheap, but I´m not. Did you hear that? In this pub we had some famous people visiting us, but now we have just the people around the corner. You missed the day when Jim Morrison played drums with Hendrix over that little wood stage and also the day when mister Clapton himself puked in my beautiful red dress.
Oh. I miss the past... Shhh... that ... that... noise... oh no, another spirit... They freak me out and scare me to death... and the worst - spirits and zombies do not pay! At least they all are famous people who have passed away. Hey mister, take your eyes away from me and just look the icons, THE ICONS I said. Get some famous people to your desktop and have fun talking to them... like I do... er... just kidding."

Miles Davis (1926-1991) grew up in East St. Louis, Illinois and began playing the trumpet when he was 13. Miles invented new ways of making music and in doing so he discovered many up-and-coming musicians. They include John Coltrane, Bill Evans, Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock. Besides making recordings with his own small jazz groups, Miles also had a great success with a large orchestra that his friend Gil Evans wrote the music for. In later years, he experimented with fusing rock and pop music with jazz. Miles remained an innovator of music throughout his career.

Pink Floyd is a mystical and eclectic mixture of love and lust, dreams and desires, mesmerizing and meaningful and an echo of things lost and things found. Like most successful bands, they have few middle of the road fans – you love them or you hate them.

Perhaps no other rock-and-roll trailblazer has been as original or as influential in such a short span of time as Jimi Hendrix. Widely acknowledged as one of the most daring and inventive virtuosos in rock history, Hendrix pioneered the electric guitar (he played a right-handed Fender Strat upside-down and left-handed) as an electronic sound source capable of feedback, distortion, and a host of other effects that could be crafted into an articulate and fluid emotional vocabulary. And though he was on the scene as a solo artist for less than five years, Jimi Hendrix is credited for having a profound effect on everyone from Miles Davis to Stevie Ray Vaughan.
