Tonight begins a month-long exhibition of Jimi Hendrix photographers in Beverly Hills. In fact, the 30 works, ranging from $1,500 to $40,000, by 17 photographers is one of the most extensive Los Angeles showings of famous musician.

Knight, Jerry Schatzberg, Herb Schmitz, Dezo Hoffman, Barry Peake, David Magnus, Baron Wolman, Dominique Tarle and Rob Bosboom.
