to be challenged by one of [E] his disciples.
[A]
[E] Having been in London for just a week,
Jimmy went along to a cream [C] gig
and put in an audacious request
to [Dm] jam with Krempt.
[D] Nobody gets up to jam with cream.
Cream [N] is Mount Olympus.
Cream is the absolute pinnacle.
Ordinary mortals cannot breathe the
rarified air that exists in this hallowed space.
I mean, a very brave person who would do that.
As far as I remember, he plugged
into my bass [G] amp.
He did a version of Killing [Eb] Flora.
[Gb] It blew us all away.
[Ab]
Krempt [F] had always loved the song
but always thought it was too [Abm] difficult.
And Hendrix just [Eb] rages through it
and [Ab] does all his
[Ab] tricks and stunts,
the kind of things that people like Little Richard
and the Isley Brothers hated him doing.
He plays the [Abm] guitar behind his head,
between [Gb] his legs, with [Dbm] his teeth,
[Db]
feedback, [Eb] tremolo arm, [Ab] dive bombs,
the whole roots.
He [Abm] just [Db] played
his [N] arse off, basically.
The first time I saw Eric, I thought,
oh, there's a master guitar player.
But Eric was a guitar player.
Jimmy was [Dbm] some sort of force of nature.
[Ab] Eric just stands there and plays
and we got this [Eb] guy, suddenly,
on his knees and playing with his teeth
and [Db] screwing the guitar
on the static channel.
[E] I thought, God, [Gb] Marky,
what [Ab] is this?
[B] It was like, [Ab] wow!
That kind [Db] of a thing.
I know it had a tremendous effect [Ab] on Eric.
[Db] Eric's hands were like this on the guitar and it just
dropped, I'd say.
He just [N] sat, stood there,
looked at Jimmy and [Gm] he walked off the stage
and I thought, dear, I knew this was going to happen.
[D] [N] And everybody's just going,
my God!
And it's like, word goes around, this guy got up
to Jan with Krem and he cut Clapton.
