Скачать или смотреть Tales of Jimi Hendrix and Lithofayne Pridgon "Kicking It"

"Kicking it" in this context likely refers to Jimi Hendrix and Lithofayne Pridgon spending time together, enjoying each other's company, and possibly creating music. Lithofayne Pridgon (also known as Faye or Fayne) was a significant figure in Jimi Hendrix's life, widely considered his "Foxy Lady" and a major muse for his music.
Their relationship was intense and complicated. They first met in Harlem in 1963, sharing a love for music and a connection that led them to become inseparable. They lived together at times, listened to blues records, and wrote songs, with Pridgon noting how captivated Hendrix was by artists like Elmore James. Pridgon, with her connections in the Harlem music scene, also helped Hendrix secure early gigs, including with the Isley Brothers.
Despite their deep connection, Pridgon was known for her independent and free-spirited nature, engaging in relationships with other musicians like Sam Cooke and Little Willie John even while involved with Hendrix. This aspect of her personality, her inability to be tied down exclusively, reportedly caused Hendrix considerable frustration and served as inspiration for songs like "Foxy Lady".
They continued their on-again, off-again relationship until Hendrix's death in 1970. Pridgon remained a compelling individual in her own right, known for her sharp wit and independent spirit. She had a brief recording contract with Atlantic Records in the early 1970s, though the album she recorded was never released due to her dissatisfaction with the results. She also toured as a backup singer with Bobby Blue Bland's Blandolls.
