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.
