Jimi Hendrix Knihy

Autorom tejto knihy je naozaj Jimi Hendrix. Ale keďže táto kniha bola zostavená posmrtne, mali by sme objasniť, ako sme dospeli k jej konečnej podobe. V istom zmysle to bol vlastne jeho nápad. Pracovali sme na životopisnom filme. Nechceli sme však Jimimu vkladať do úst slová, ktoré nikdy nevyslovil, a tak sme sa rozhodli, že skúsime spracovať iba to, čo skutočne povedal. Nakoniec sme zhromaždili obrovskú kopu materiálu z mnohých zdrojov, o ktorých hodnovernosti nemožno pochybovať. Bolo toho naozaj veľa, pretože Jimi počas svojho štvorročného života na výslní poskytol nesčíselné množstvo rozhovorov. Okrem toho si rád robil poznámky, používal doslova všetko – hotelový hlavičkový papier, cigaretové škatuľky, zdrapy papiera a dokonca vreckovky, jednoducho čo bolo poruke. A hoci mnohé z toho už bolo publikované, vždy sa tak stalo s úmyslom potvrdiť isté predstavy o jeho živote a hudbe. Pri skúmaní dostupných podkladov sme si uvedomili, že Jimi nám všetko podstatné povie aj sám, no informácie sú útržkovité a niekedy nejasné. Vtedy sme si predsavzali, že uprostred mnohých mýtov a povier necháme prehovoriť samotného Jimiho, aby nám podal svoj vlastný pohľad na život a tvorbu.

It didn't take long after Jimi Hendrix's death for the artist to become a myth of music. He has been surrounded by a shroud of intrigue since he first came into the public eye, and the mystery has only grown with time. Much has been written and said about him by experts and fans and critics, some of it true and some of it not; Starting at Zero will set the record straight. This is Hendrix in his own words. The lyricism and rhythm of Jimi Hendrix's writing will be of no surprise to his fans. Hendrix wrote prolifically throughout his life and he left behind a trove of scribbled-on hotel stationary, napkins and cigarette cartons. Starting at Zero weaves the scraps and bits together fluidly with interviews and lyrics revealing for the first time a continuous narrative of the artist's life, from birth through to the final four years of his life. The result is a beautifully poetic, charming and passionate memoir as smooth and memorable as Hendrix's finest songs. The pieces of Starting at Zero came together in large part because of the inspiration of Alan Douglas. Douglas first met Jimi Hendrix backstage at Woodstock, and soon after became Hendrix's producer and close friend. In creating the book he joined forces with Peter Neal, who edited Hendrix's writing with the reverence and light touch it deserved.

Jimi Hendrix was such an extraordinary guitarist, it can be easy to forget that just as much passion, soul and precision went into his lyrics. Inspired by Bob Dylan, Hendrix was a fearless lyrical innovator, willing to let his imagination guide him to landscapes of words hitherto unexplored within the realms of pop music. This extraordinarily personal book includes numerous examples of Jimi's handwritten lyrics, often scribbled on hotel stationery, and photos of Jimi accompanying every song. From the existential euphoria of "I Don't Live Today" to the elusive beauty of "Little Wing" to the psychedelic blues of "My Friend" to the otherworldly "1983 (... A Merman I Should Turn to Be)," the lyrics of Jimi Hendrix remain among the greatest in the pantheon of rock, infused with the same inventiveness, virtuosity and courage that informed his guitar playing.
