Or Jagger in awe of Jimi ?
:
Mick Jagger in a Jann S. Wenner interview for Rolling Stone:
“I loved Jimi Hendrix from the beginning. The moment I saw him. I thought he was fantastic. I was an instant convert. Mr. Jimi Hendrix is the best thing I’ve ever seen. It was exciting, sexy, interesting. He didn’t have a very good voice but made up for it with his guitar. I first saw him at the at the Revolution Club in London. I was one of the six people in the club, and Jimi was playing. I couldn’t believe it. It was insane . so good and the whole idea of this kind of English band behind him, this bizarre mixture between a blues performer and a rock player with and English touch.
I was quite friendly with him. He was a really sweet guy. A bit confused. It’s the same old story: Jimi Hendrix played all over the place with all these bands. He’d been a background guitar player for donkey years and suddenly he gets what he wants, then he has to play “Purple Haze” every night. He goes “Uh, I don’t want to play “Purple Haze” every night. I don’t want to burn the guitar.” And then when everyone went off the deep end, he had to go off the deep end. He became a heroin addict”
