Short story:

Full article:

Chas Chandler (manager) : When we got back from France, things were very quiet. It was very hard to get work and no-one would touch him. I was fast running out of money.

Gary Brooker [Procol Harum] : He appeared as if he had tumbled out of the sky. I remember in the Charing Cross Road one day, I saw this figure on the other side up near Denmark Street in a green cape and a green suit with a mop of hair. And I knew this was Jimi Hendrix. I don't think he even had a record out then. This was before Hey Joe.
