It may have been centuries a part but did you know that the extremely different musical talents, Hendrix and Handel lived in neighbouring houses on Brook St in London's Mayfair District?

| English Heritage Hendrix Marker |
According to these English Heritage markers Rock guitarist,
Jimi Hendrix lived at No. 23 Brook Street between 1968 and 1969, while composer,
George Fredric Handel lived at No. 25 between 1723 and his death in 1759.
The
Handel House Museum was set up at No. 25 about 10 years ago. I guess it will be a couple of hundred years before Hendrix gets his on the site.
The things you learn on a Saturday morning stroll around London...
