Written by the coauthor of the bestselling biography of Jim

Morrison, No One Here Gets Out Alive, here at last is the

intimate and shocking story of Jimi Hendrix, the hedonistic

superstar who blazed a trail of sex, drugs, wild music, and

suicidal be havior through the rock world of the sixties, and

who electrified audiences everywhere with his guitar-play-

ing wizardry in such hits as "Foxy Lady" and "Purple Haze"

Revealed for the first time are J imi s battles with Mick Jagger

over Marianne Faithfull; the Mafia s plot to kidnap him; his

private orgies at Woodstock; and the-mammoth drug habit

that ruptured his life and brought about his death. Self-effac-

ing to his parents and friends, Jimi was a kaleidoscope of

paradoxes, beating his women- sending one girl friend to

the hospital--and often screaming obscenities from the

stage to his fans.

Jerry Hopkins No One Here Gets Out Alive (written with

Daniel Sugerman) was hailed as "pivotal" by the Los Angeles

Times, "absorbing" by People magazine, "stun n ing" by BAM

magazine, and "intensely vivid, savagely engrossing" by

Kicks magazine. But Jim Morrison s life was a Sunday School

picnic compared with this saga of Hendrix, the quintessen-

tial rock star whose roller-coaster career changed the music

of a decade.
