Jimi Hendrix 'Sex Tape' DVD To Be Released in May



March 2010

A DVD containing footage the makers claim is a Jimi Hendrix sex tape is set to be released in May.

Jimi Hendrix: The Story Of The Lost Sex Tape is due out on the Kaleidoscope company on May 3. It contains 11 minutes of porn footage which is being billed as featuring the late guitar legend.

Cynthia 'Plaster Caster', who in 1968 famously made a plaster cast of Hendrix's penis, is quoted as saying, "That's his dick, and I should know!" in the DVD material.

According to the DVD makers the footage was unearthed in 2007 when rediscovered in a job lot at auction. It was shot on 8mm film.

It gives a new meaning to the term "Experience Hendrix".

If this is the 'infamous' one from a couple of years ago then it's not Jimi.

"JIMI HENDRIX THE SEX TAPE" FROM VIVID ENTERTAINMENT REVEALS HARDCORE SIDE OF ICONIC ROCK LEGEND
Sexumentary to Hit Stores on Tuesday, May 6th
LOS ANGELES - (April 29, 2008) - Jimi Hendrix, the iconic rock 'n roll guitarist, will be seen in a new role - as an adult film star - in "Jimi Hendrix The Sex Tape" to be released online at www.hendrixsextape.net today, Tuesday, April 29th by Vivid Entertainment, the world's leading adult film studio. It will be available in stores across the country a week later on Tuesday, May 6th.

Vivid obtained the footage from a collector of rock 'n roll memorabilia. It was shot about 40 years ago in a hotel room as Hendrix had an erotic liaison with two slender brunettes. When the footage starts, Hendrix appears mellow while on the receiving end of bi-racial lovemaking from the two girls. In contrast, his enthusiasm to give back pleasure appears to be boundless.

The Vivid DVD is a sexual documentary that gives insight on the uninhibited rock 'n roll scene of the Sixties. The company consulted with several experts to authenticate the footage and the movie features commentary by two of the experts that Vivid brought in: Pamela Des Barres, author of "I'm with the Band: Confessions of a Groupie" and other books, who teams up with Cynthia Plaster Caster, famous for creating plaster molds of the penises of rock stars, including that of Hendrix. We learn more about the sexual side of Hendrix' music through the commentary from both women who knew him personally.

"This new movie shows that Jimi Hendrix could have been as great a porn star as he was a rock star. He could clearly play more than just his guitar," said Vivid co-chairman Steven Hirsch. It's easy to see that he turned women on with his music and his passion."

As consultants, the first job of Des Barres and Plaster Caster was to confirm that it is actually Hendrix portrayed in the 8 mm footage. "No doubt about it," says Plaster Caster. "That's Jimi Hendrix' d*ck and I should know." She then relates how she was invited to Hendrix' hotel room on February 25, 1968, where she made a plaster mold of his penis which she compares to Jimi's on film.

Plaster Caster says Hendrix had an orgasm while in her cast for the mold, which she numbered #0004 and called the "Penis de Milo." "It was a magical process that only lasted a half hour," she recalls. In the Vivid DVD she also reveals that on the night she cast Hendrix' penis she also had sex with musician Noel Redding, bassist for The Jimi Hendrix Experience band.

Des Barres says in her commentary: "Hendrix liked to be filmed having sex. He's the ultimate adult film movie star. I understand why everyone wanted to sleep with the guy. He played like an all-encompassing rock orgasm. He reeked of sex. You wanted to strip to keep up with him when he played 'Foxy Lady.'"

Des Barres and Plaster Caster talk extensively about Hendrix and his influence on the Sixties. "It was a time of exploring bodies, music, drugs, of the coming together of like-minded souls who thought they would change the world," says Des Barres. She and Plaster Caster were both among the "top groupies" invited to all of the major musical events. "The footage proves," says Des Barres, "that Hendrix was fabulous in bed and really wanted to please his partner." Consumers can learn more about the movie by visiting www.hendrixsextape.net.

The Hendrix biopic with Andre 3000 was stopped by Janie Hendrix. The Hughes Bros gave Janie a preview clip with Andre (acting as Jimi) and she derailed it.

That movie is never going to hit the screen. Everyone from Phil Lynott (Thin Lizzy), Charlie Wilson (The Gap Band), Jack Hammer (Jimi's guitar playing lookalike buddy), Eddie Murphy..(yes Eddie..read it in Jet magazine back in 83)
,L.L. Cool J and Q-Tip were in talks to play Jimi since the 70's.

At this point, it doesn't even make any sense to shoot a Jimi flick. What he had going on couldn't even be captured onscreen. "Hendrix" (2000) proved that.

Janie's probably preparing a Jimi Hendrix dildo right now.

There IS at least one Jimi sex tape - Sly Stone confirmed this in a very recent "Mojo" interview - but I understood that this Vivid release is a fake.

Yes,I remember in the 80s,there was alot of talk about Eddie Murphy starring in it.At one point in 1988,there was even a rumor that our Prince was gearing up to do the movie lol His manager (Steve Fargnoli) issued a denial.

LOL! Wow P was rumoured to play him too? Funny. There was talk about him also playing Robert Johnson a while back.

Lenny was rumoured to play Jimi back in 2003 but I'm glad that never happened.

It would've been intersting to see that.

Hell, it would've been intersting to watch a Robert Johnson biopic regardless of who PLAYS him.

nod yep,I remember hearing about this project in 1989.It was to be called "The Robert Johnson Story" and Prince was gonna star in it.Unfortunately,"Graffiti Bridge" flopped,which put an end to Prince's movie career.

Lenny was rumoured to play Jimi back in 2003 but I'm glad that never happened.


Yeah,I can't really imagine Lenny in that role.Out of all the names that have been mentioned,I think Andre3000 is the best choice to play Jimi.

It's just so tacky. Even putting out his unreleased songs and compositions can be a bit dodgy, but at least with that there's some justification, in that completists are genuinely interested in hearing later work, experiments, new directions, etc. Here, it's just shamelessly cashing-in on an invasion of privacy. Pathetic.

Yes. 8mm cameras were the rave back then. But I'm almost sure that they didn't have digital watches in 1968 or 69 (which the "Jimi" in this sex flick wore).

Sorry y'all but the dude in that flick ain't James Marshall.
