🏊 September, 23


1966.
🏊 Jimmy is issued with US passport, No G 1044108.
Jimmy, Chas Chandler and Terry McVay (road manager for the Animals’ final tour) fly first class with Pan American Airways from John F. Kennedy International Airport, New York City, USA, at 9 pm, destination London.

1967.
🏊 London W8, "Royal Albert Hall", Kensington Gore
Jimi attends a Frank Zappa concert. When Jimi arrived Zappa went parodying "Hey Joe."

Apart from rehearsing with The Mothers and the ten members of the London Philharmonic, Zappa was also anxious to meet a band called Tomorrow - who were, in Pamela Zarubica's phrase, "tight friends with Hendrix", so a meeting was easily arranged. Zappa, Pam, Jimi and Jeff Beck went round to the flat where Tomorrow lived. ‘All I remember for sure’ Pam reports, ‘is that... everyone was getting high, except us, and for once Frank didn't seem to mind. When we left the place Frank's first comment was, 'I never met such a nice little group of junkies before.' Not that they were junkies, it's just that Frank is so totally unfamiliar with the drug scene that I doubt if he could tell the difference between hash and heroin’.
