“John, Jimi and me”: The supergroup Brian Jones reportedly wanted to form

Brian Jones and Jimi Hendrix reportedly considered leaving their bands to form a secret supergroup with John Lennon, a tantalising idea that remained unrealised. Their musical paths did cross: Jones played sitar on a rare version of Noel Redding’s ‘There Ain’t Nothing Wrong (Little One)’ with Hendrix and Mitch Mitchell.

The article also recounts Jones’s visit to the studio during Hendrix’s recording of ‘All Along the Watchtower’. Engineer Eddie Kramer recalled Jones playing piano, then falling asleep in the control room while the session continued. The piece offers little detail about the proposed group or the men’s relationship, and the surviving account ends before naming all its intended members.
