crystalline-: “I give him [Jimi Hendrix] and Janis Joplin and Grace Slick [of Jefferson Airplane] the three nods. From Grace, I got her kinda slinkiness. Janis was just little with a big attitude with big hair and feathers, and a drop-dead amazing voice. She was really tough but sang like a bird and could really hold that audience in her hand. And Jimi Hendrix, on the other side of that, was completely and utterly humble… So from those three people I got slinky, attitude and humility.

A rock’n’roll icon was born.” HQ copies: {x}{x} -- source link
