There’s been a wealth of unreleased Jimi Hendrix materials – rumour has it in his periods of peak creativity, it didn’t take more than a day or two to create an album. Ironically, more material has been released since his infamous passing than during his lifetime; some have claimed, and with good arguments, that this is stripping Hendrix of his legacy, but for myself, I just have to say that I’m a little more selfish,…

Rod Stewart’s biography: taking cocaine anally and more
Rod Stewart is one of those guys who took partying to a whole new level. I’d set him right alongside David Bowie and below Jimi Hendrix, in the unofficial party hall of fame. In his published memory, Rod: The Autobiography, the rocker reveals that he used to take cocaine anally – but all for health – to protect his nose, that is. …we started buying anti-cold capsules from the chemist’s, separating the two halves of…
