Scuse Me While I Kiss The Sky The Life of Jimi Hendrix

The latest edition of the highly controversial Hendrix biography.

From Seattle and his years in the US Air Force to London in the Sixties, here is the full Jimi Hendrix story: the songs, the concerts, the flaming guitars, the drugs, the booze and the women and, of course, the unforgettable musical legacy.

'Scuse Me While I Kiss The Sky remains the definitive biography of a musical phenomenon who died young after a dazzling career that fused blues and jazz into a unique brand of drug-fuelled psychedelic rock.

Personal tensions and betrayals are explored alongside a catalogue of memorable live performances, showbiz duplicity and personal excess that led to Hendrix's controversial death at the age of 27.

There was only one Jimi and more than 50 years since his passing David Henderson's brilliant book is the closest thing we have to catching the Hendrix brand of lightning in a bottle.
