Lemmy Kilmister: 'Jimi Hendrix Was Murdered By People Around Him'

August 11, 2008
Lemmy Kilmister: 'Jimi Hendrix Was Murdered By People Around Him'Motorhead’s Lemmy Kilmister has claimed that the late guitarist Jimi Hendrix was "murdered" by the people around him.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Kilmister, who was friends with the guitarist, said Hendrix was neglected by some of his closest associates.

“Hendrix was just a sweet guy — to an extent, he was murdered by the people around him, because they didn't take care of him.

“They just didn't watch his back,” he said.

Hendrix was found dead in London in September 1970. The guitarist’s death has never fully been explained.
