Footnotes

These autographs were obtained at the Gaumont, Hanley, by schoolboy Martyn Shallcross, who later became an author and whose works include 'The Private World Of Daphne Du Maurier'. Martyn was introduced to Jimi by his history teacher ('Barbara') who was then in a relationship with John Walker of the Walker Brothers, the headliners of this, Jimi's first UK tour, March/April 1967. Martyn recalls that when he met Jimi backstage he was playing chess with Barbara and was charming, '...the opposite of the image viewed by many at the time...'
