I also played with Jimi Hendrix. Jimi would come down and sit in with Retaliation and we would have a ball. He offered me the gig with him at 20 pounds a week, which at that point, was like 60 bucks.

But then there was Hendrix, man. Jimi was really the last cat to freak me. Jimi was playing all the stuff I had in my head. I couldn't believe it, when I first heard him. Man, no one can ever do what he did with a guitar. No one can ever take his place.

Richard Lloyd of Television is one of my favorite guitarists. His mentor was Jimi Hendrix when he was just 14. Jimi was always pounding everything he knew into that kid.

Jimi Hendrix (altered poem)
Jimi Hendrix was a figure
In Sixties rock.
He seemed so full of life and vigour
His early death was a tragedy
And gave his followers a shock.
Those were the days
When songs like 'Are You Experienced'
And 'Purple Haze'
Were popular,
And Jimi's dexterity would amaze
His fans,
He'd started quite a craze.
His sudden death
(He took too many sleeping pills)
Propelled him into immortality,
The Man became a Myth.

Jam Back At The House
Jimi:
"yeah well a like i said before we only ran up a few numbers so let
Me try and do this one like we were just jammin' at the house we don't have
A name for yet it's just like an instrumental so we'll just go along with it.
It goes somthin' like this."
No lyrics. it's an insturmental like jimi said, but a great instrumental.
Jimi:
"before we go any further we'd like to say that you all really had a lot of pashents
Three days worth. you've prooved to the world what can happen with a little bit of
Love and sounds. oh, i left my girlfriend at home i'm sorry. i'd like to do a thing
That a new american anthem until we get another on together. this is called 'voodoo
Child (slight return)'.
