Some people have that roar in their head, but I`m not sure I ever did. That live-fast-die-young thing. No one wants it really - Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin - it`s not good. I want to live with Amanda till I`m 70. I was never the kid that went all the way w...

We were kind of disciples of Hendrix (Jimi Hendrix) and The Beatles, particularly the way they used studios almost like an instrument, but obviously we had more technology than they had had, so we could push things a lot further.

Since I was seventeen I thought I might be a star. I`d think about all my heroes, Charlie Parker, Jimi Hendrix... I had a romantic feeling about how these people became famous.

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.

No-one in particular, lots of different people. It is really about people like Jimi Hendrix who had too much too soon and burned out too quickly. Also it is about people such as CS Lewis who travelled to the limits.

Kevin Ayers who was part of the first incarnation of the Soft Machine, who always opened for Jimi Hendrix. They were Jimi`s favorite band.

Jimi was always at The Scene when he was in New York and we played many times together. He was just everywhere - he went out and jammed everywhere he was.
Johnny Winter
I watched Janis one time - we opened for her - and that`s the only time I ever saw her. We opened for Jimi Hendrix. I got to stand on the side of the stage and watch him for two hours and then he died. But I got the essence before they left.

I am a leader. Leaders always get heat. They`re always going against the grain. Jimi Hendrix got heat; Bob Marley got heat; Miles Davis got heat. Every great artist got heat. Heat means you`re doing something right.
Ziggy Marley
He saw us play a few times in fact. I did this song called I Can`t Keep From Crying Sometimes, and Jimi loved it. He paid me a huge compliment when he told me that he was thinking of doing something similar himself!
Alvin Lee
(Jimi) was so into it -- if you listen closely you will see that I stayed on him, ... And when he started `The Star Spangled Banner,` that impromptu thing, you hear the first four, five, or six notes; I`m in there with him. Then I said, `Wait a minute, we...
