Scuse Me While I Kiss the Sky

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
It has long been acknowledged that Jimi Hendrix died under suspicious circumstances in 1970. Now, David Henderson's sprawling 1978 biography "Scuse Me While I Kiss the Sky," has been published in a revised edition that presents never-before-published information about the hours leading up to Hendrix's death. The new information challenges whether Hendrix really died of a drug overdose – the accepted version of his death for nearly 40 years – and raises the question of whether he was a victim of foul play. Henderson joins us to share his findings.
