That bass was responsible for "All Along The Watchtower" (after Noel Redding threw his first of many hissy fits and stormed out during the sessions), the lawsuit that birthed Band of Gypsies, and probably his death a little bit.

I've seen this video, it's crazy how he was doing his Jimi things already before The Experience.

Little Richard also said he would be flamboyent, and Little Richard didn't like anybody taking his shine.

Great early photos of Jimi. He could pick up anything (upside down even) and make it sound good. :lol:
