Experience Hendrix bassist Billy Cox — who first befriended Jimi in the 101st Airborne Division of U.S. Army, played in both the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Band Of Gypsys, and performed with Hendrix at such landmark festivals as Woodstock and the Isle of Wight — is delighted to play a part in the current tour, saying, "It's a thrill for me to play Jimi's music for audiences now, as it was in the 1960s."
