| Heaven Goes to 11 |
One of Milton Keynes most famous people, Jim Marshall, has died at the age of 88. JIM Marshall OBE, the pioneering inventor behind Marshall Amplifiers and the man known as ‘The Father of Loud’, has died aged 88.
Mr Marshall devised and sold his first amps from a small shop in Hanwell’s Uxbridge Road in the mid 1960s. Guitar legend Jimi Hendrix was just one of the people who bought an amp from him personally.
His name lives on all around the world... RIP
