For one thing, she got The Animals's Bass player, Chas Chandler, interested in Jimi Hendrix, for this she should go down in the Rock 'N' Roll hall of fame. |

Didn't she give Jimi one of Keith's guitars, or is that just legend?

From our space for Jimi and the Stones
When playing with Curtis Knight, one day Keith Richards’ girlfriend Linda Keith saw Jimi at a club located at 126 St., Linda was with his friend Mark, the owner of “Café Wha” in the Greenwich Village. They told Jimi how impressed they were at his performance and invited him to play at the “Wha”, Jimi didn’t pay attention to the invitation and formed Jimmy James and the Blue Flames with Randy California (who later formed Spirit). After leaving the Curtis Knight Band he discovered the Fuzztone Box, later they played at the “Wha”. It was early July 1966 when the Rolling Stones arrived to NYC, and Linda Keith was with them and saw again Jimi playing, she told him that he must sing in addition to play.
Linda Keith gave Jimi a Keith Richards guitar with left-handed strings with one condition. To sing loud that nigh for one friend, Chas Chandler the ex bass player for the Animals who turned a producer. Chas was so impressed that made a proposal to Jimi to go to England to form a new band. In London the first jam of Jimi was with the Cream on October 1, 1966; Eric Clapton was so impressed that Chas decided to form a group, “The Jimi Hendrix Experience” with bassist Noel Redding and drummer Mitch Mitchel, the rest is history.
It’s a fact, Linda Keith was the catalyst to make it happen!

This guy?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Porter_%28musician%29
Not a bad resume, if it's him
Interesting coincidence to see that he's on the Bryan Ferry album that features Jerry Hall on the video of the title song (he didnt do 'Siren' however, which was the Roxy album with her on the front cover)

Hmm, there's a lot of mixing of events, some errors and unproven facts in there, but yeah...

early on, back when Jimi was in Little Richards band, Keith taught Jimi how to play guitar.
I think if Jimi hadnt passed away so young and had continued to practice hard, he would of one day been as great of a guitar player as Keith. He certainly had the potential. |

You don't think he's thought as that now? |
