The last show we played, I was straight as a die. It did feel weird not to be hiding behind alcohol or dope, but being focused was... good.

Back in those days, all us skinny white British kids were trying to look cool and sound black. And there was Hendrix, the ultimate in black cool. Everything he did was natural and perfect.

In my family, they were all big boozers, but they all lived to ripe old ages.

I had a fiery affair with George Harrison's wife, Pattie Boyd.

Let's face it: I paint well. I know it, you know it. There's no arguing really, is there?

Having loved the Stones all the time I was growing up, I wasn't about to see them go and split up. It got very close to it in the 80s, when Mick thought that Keith hated him and vice versa.

Amazing, the poisons I used to put in my body. I used to love it.
