In 1966, Kathy Etchingham, a DJ and hairdresser, walked into a London nightclub and met Jimi Hendrix.
She recalls her time as Jimi Hendrix's girlfriend including the occasion they argued over mashed potatoes which inspired the rock legend to write The Wind Cries Mary.

I got to see him twice. Like everyone, I've heard most (not The Wind Cries Mary story. That was great!) of the stories but hearing about his passing again still hits us with a profound sense of loss. Thanks for this post.

Getting married behind his back put him on a downward path. Had he managed to hang on to her it would have done him good, she was level headed and normal, too many around him were the opposite, like airhead Monika.

Awwwwwwwwwwwww a lover's quarrel, they really did love each other a lot, but he did tell her he wasn't a one woman man, 3 years, that was along time, i do think, had he lived he would have coaxed her to break off her engagement with the Doctor she was engaged to.. Jimi was heart broken deep down, imo, i think besides his Strat and His Black Beauty, and his Flying V, Kathy was his next true love, and had he lived, i think he would have married her, he was making a lot of big changes in his life.. Rip Jimi, You are truly, truly missed..

While he was in the Army, he wrote Betty Jean and asked her to marry him, he purchased a ring for her, but her parents wouldn't let it happen, because they wanted her to finish school, it's true, he wasn't a womanizer then, and i do believe Jimi did hold Fayne close to his heart, and did love her......
