Description
Connie and Alan begin the interview discussing Jimi’s final years, his racial and ethnic background, and how he started playing the guitar. They proceed to talk about Jimi’s early life in the military, how the book was organized and developed, and plans for the upcoming film before moving on to consider Jimi’s other musical talents beyond guitar playing, and his popularity in England. Connie and Alan go on to discuss Jimi’s nature and his literary interests, Alan’s first meeting Jimi, and Jimi’s spiritual qualities as expressed through music before then reflecting on his death and what his life might have been. Connie closes the interview requesting an autograph for her copy of the book.
