THE JIMI HENDRIX STORY - JANUARY 1967. EPISODE FIVE - AS YOU'VE NEVER HEARD IT BEFORE -
This program comprisies the following:
0:00. THE MID-SIXTIES LONDON CLUB SCENE (In the mid-1960s, it was widely acknowledged that the club scene in and around London was unrivalled, standing as the pinnacle of its kind worldwide)
02:28. AND THE ROCK’N’ROLL CIRCUS IS IN MOTION Incl APPEARANCES for JAN 1967 (With interviews, photo calls, recording sessions and an ever growing list of club dates which, if you include all the travelling time between gigs up and down the country, meant they very rapidly found themselves with no free time)
05:50. MITCH ON WIND CRIES MARY & JIMI’S SONGWRITING (Jimi was incredibly literate and in possession of a great deal of wisdom. I’ve really no idea where it came from, but what a gift for words!)
07:06. ‘THE WIND CRIES MARY’ - ORIGINS OF THE SONG (The song was written in the wake of a cataclysmic row between Kathy Etchingham, whose middle name is Mary, and Jimi)
08:46. ‘51st ANNIVERSARY’ - THE SONG AND THE RECORDING (A great recording, I always loved that song. It features five guitar overdubs all linking in together, to sound like one guitar. Hendrix was brilliant. We would record on four-track, premix down to two-track, fill those up, and overdub again.")
10:14. RECORDING PURPLE HAZE, ACCORDING TO CHAS (With “’Purple Haze,’ Hendrix and I were searching for a sound and just kept going back in, two hours at a time, trying to achieve it)
11:28. JIMI IN HIS OWN WORDS - HEY JOE AND THE MEANING OF PURPLE HAZE (It was the first time I ever tried to sing on a record. I was too scared to sing. Chas made me sing serious. I just wish I could sing really nice, but I know I can’t. I just feel the words out)
13:03. JIMI AND KATHY AND THEIR INCESSANT ROWING (Jimi was particularly frustrated by the lack of decent food in England at the time)
15:08. WE STILL HAD WRETCHED NIGHT AND PERSONAL BAD MOMENTS (Just to keeps things in perspective, not everyone loved us. We still had wretched nights when the audience hated us and every note we played)
16:00. THE NORTHEN ENGLISH CLUB BOOKINGS (Before ‘Hey Joe’ came out and became a hit, Chas had booked Jimi to do a tour of the working-men’s clubs in the north of England. He tried to get Jimi out of it once it was obvious that he could pull bigger crowds at other venues, but the contracts were water-tight)
18:11. TWO GIRLS IN EACH ARM, EXHAUSTED AND SKINT! (Things changed Fast and our days settled into a routine: up late, travel, gig, get pissed, crawl into bed between four and eight in the morning)
