Tell Me :
Talk
1967ish - around when Ronnie played on that PP Arnold track.
like the good Dandelion P says, Ronnie mentions it in his book; i don't have it at hand to check the details
but PP Arnold was living in the same building or something, and was close to Jimi, or ... i forget :E
ahem, i mean: thanks partnerincrime! for posting some actual facts at the same time as i was posting my garbled recollection

Did you know Hendrix in early 1967?
It's true.
Ronnie is music's own Forrest Gump.
Lennon: Could I suggest a rooster haircut and a name change?
dear Cocaine Eyes,
the link above is Ronnie talking about how he reassured Jimi that his singing was ok...did you mean to attach a clip to something about Ronnie sharing a flat with Jimi Hendrix?

that's true. as per Ronnie's words "He was quite quiet as a flatmate: Quaaluded-up all the time. And spliffed. Very laid back."
Talk about your favorite band.

Uncut's article. He said he shared with Jimi the same PP arnold's flat in Holland Park ... Jimi also left his bassethound, Snoopy, to Ronnie as PP was complaining as the dog was shitting everywhere "Either the dog goes or You two go!" and Jimi decided to go.

To His Majesty's question, I did not meet Hendrix until February 1968.
But in the next several years he certainly told me a lot about his various living situations in London as well as in New York, Seattle and on and off the Chitlin' Circuit. One of the reasons he often referred to himself as a "gypsy."

If I recall correctly Wood writes quite a lot about Hendrix in his book, and mentions specifically that at that time he thought Hendrix was really overdoing it with drugs, really downing and smoking as much as he could every night.
