Synopsis
Mick Wall's exploration of the short but influential life of Rock's greatest guitarist intersperses interviews and quotations with snapshots of Hendrix's life, from childhood in Seattle to world stardom. The non-linear narrative explores the musician's struggle to find his place in post-war America and then to handle his success in the drink and drug-fuelled scene of late 1960s London.

About the Author
Mick Wall was the editor-in-chief of CLASSIC ROCK Magazine for five years. He's the author of numerous music titles, including books on Iron Maiden, Don Arden and Black Sabbath. He ghosted XS All Areas: the autobiography of Status Quo, and is a former DJ on Capital Radio. In the late eighties he was a regular guest on Andy Kershaw's Radio 1 show -- it was then, one night at the BBC that he first bumped into John Peel. Peel helpfully showed him how to use the coffee machine. http://www.mickwall.com/home.htm http://www.mickwall.com/blog/blog.php https://twitter.com/WallMick
