Jimi Hendrix called the flat at 23 Brook Street, in London’s Mayfair, ‘my first real home of my own’. He arrived there when his fame as the greatest rock guitarist of his era was at its height. But the period also marked a time of re-assessment for him, as he searched for new directions in which to take his life and his music. By focusing on this key moment in Hendrix’s extraordinary story, using extensive original research, Christian Lloyd’s book brings a fresh perspective on our understanding of Jimi Hendrix, both as a man and as a musician.
