Hendrix, like Lennon, like Bob Marley are not just legendary and iconic of specific genre's of music, or even music in general, but rather entire "era's". Dr Dre is, and probably never will be anywhere near that level. But again, it's opinion. Just look at Quincy Jones. The man is a living legend, has produced entire albums. Off the Wall & Thriller, even producing some of the biggest names in music ever, Sinatra, Fitzgerald etc. and by rights has more musical talent than Dre because he can play more instruments as well as produce in the studio, but even he won't have the iconic popularity of the figures previously mentioned. Dr Dre will always be known and respected, just not that timeless iconic status that will be of any symbolic use (like on T-Shirts 30 years after he's gone)

He re-released G.Funk Classics Vol.1 (and Vol.2) then with his Dogg Foundation imprint which was ditributed by Breakaway (19th Street Records, unreleased Death Row's Inside Out Compilation)Yeah, I heard some copies of the CD made it's way around but, the album wasn't officially released here in the U.S. I had a Best Buy ad for the album. I think it was gonna be released close to the release of the Gridloc'd soundtrack. I think it was gonna be released back-to-back with soundtrack like how Death Row did in November of 1996 with The 7 Day Theory and Tha Doggfather release.
