Jimi Hendrix road manager and confidante Eric Barrett breaks fifty-five years of silence, revealing what it was like to live inside the rock legend's orbitat Woodstock, on the Isle of Wight, at a Toronto drug bust, and in the private moments when Hendrix let his guard downset against the backdrop of Barrett's full rock 'n' roll career . . . a rock odyssey for the ages. As Jimi Hendrix's road manager, Eric Barrett was there when the amps blew out in Milan, when Hendrix unleashed fire at Woodstock, when paranoia set in at the Toronto airport, and in the quiet hours backstage when Hendrix revealed the insecurities behind his genius. Hendrix confided in few people. Barrett was one of them. No one was closer to Hendrix's supernatural talentor his demons. Experienced is Barrett's long-awaited, unflinching memoir: the definitive inside account of Hendrix as friend, bandleader, and phenomenon. It strips away the mythology to reveal the man in all his musical wizardry and human contradictionsvolatile, generous, insecure, incandescently creative, and always in pursuit of the next sound. While his journey with Hendrix provides the book's spine, Barrett's decades on tour with David Bowie, Madonna, George Michael, and others add depth, parallels, and a sweeping sense of how Hendrix's short life set the template for rock 'n' roll excessand survivalthrough the decades. The result is not just another rock memoir, but a once-in-a-lifetime backstage history of music's most transformative years, told through the prism of Barrett's ride on Hendrix's incandescent rise and tragic fall.
