Jimi Hendrix. Castles Made of Sand.
People often forget that Hendrix was not just a revolutionary guitarist but wrote some great songs, of which Castles Made of Sand is my favourite. Its got it all, great rhythm section, wonderful, insightful lyrics, backwards guitar solo & of course that coolness Hendrix brought to everything. A classic, and not just for the rockers!

Open CultureJimi Hendrix Wreaks Havoc on the Lulu Show, Gets Banned From the BBC (1969)Can you imagine Jimi Hendrix singing a duet with Lulu? Well, neither could Hendrix. So when the iconoclastic guitar player showed up with his band at the BBC studios in London on January 4, 1969 to appear on Happening for Lulu, he was horrified to learn that the show's producer wanted him to sing with the winsome star of To Sir, With Love.
