Short story:

Jimi Hendrix jams after-hours at The Scene Club, New York City, USA, with a staggering drunk Jim Morrison of The Doors.

Full article:

Lester Chambers (Chambers Brothers) : We Met Jimi in New York right before he left for Europe. We bonded instantly and my brother Willie was good friends and hung out all the time. There is a CD from Jimi jamming at a Club called the Scene in New York that I am on as the harmonica player with Jim Morrison.

Geno Washington : The place was fuckin' packed, the people are going ape shit. Jim Morrison is drinking his drink and staggers up to the front of the stage. 'Hey Jimi! Jimi! Let me come up and sing, man, and we'll do this shit together.' So Jimi goes 'That's OK, fella, I can handle it myself.' And he said 'Hey, do you know who I am? I'm Jim Morrison of The Doors.' 'Yeah,' said Jimi, 'I know who you are - and I'm Jimi Hendrix.'

Paul Caruso (musician/journalist) : Jim Morrison had to be dragged off the stage when he sat, or should I say fell, in with Hendrix at The Scene recently. He gets drunk and can't control himself, knocking over mike stands and falling on his back a few times for show - they took him away after he tried to make love to Jimi's guitar while singing some beautiful blues thing he made up.
